These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan Administrative Committee. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards 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. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 1997 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of assets held for investment purposes and reportable transactions are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The Fund Information in the statement of net assets available for benefits with fund information and the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits with fund information is presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the net assets available for plan benefits and changes in net assets available for plan benefits of each fund. The supplemental schedules and fund information have been subjected to the audit procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. - 4 - 5 As discussed in the notes to the supplemental schedules, information provided by the Trustee and presented in the schedules of investments and reportable transactions does not disclose the historical cost of certain plan assets held by the Plan Trustee. Disclosure of this information is required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. /s/ Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P.

General Description of Plan: The following description of the Harsco Corporation Savings Plan (the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions. The Plan is a defined contribution plan designed to comply with the requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") and with the requirements for qualification under Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"). All employees (including officers) who receive a stated weekly, hourly, monthly or annual rate of compensation and are employed by Harsco Corporation (the "Company") or any subsidiary of either the Company or a subsidiary which adopts this Plan with the approval of the Company shall be covered by, or remain covered by, this Plan, are deemed ("Eligible Employees"). Appendix B of the Plan and as amended from time to time, shall identify the collective bargaining units representing Eligible Employees under this Plan and the date as of which their coverage commenced. Effective August 1, 1996, new employees deemed an Eligible Employee under this plan are eligible to participate in the plan immediately upon their hire date. Prior to August 1, 1996, employees must have completed at least one thousand (1,000) hours of service during the twelve (12) month period beginning with the date of commencement of their employment to be considered an Eligible Employee. To participate in the Plan, an Eligible Employee must elect to contribute to the Plan through payroll deductions each pay period in whole percentages from 1% to 16% of compensation received for services as an employee of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company. The participant shall designate what percentage of such contributions will be "Pre-Tax Contributions" and what percentage will be "After-Tax Contributions." A participant who makes Matched Pre-Tax and/or Matched After-Tax Contributions in an aggregate amount of 6% of his compensation may also elect to contribute from 1% to 10% of his compensation as an Unmatched Pre-Tax and/or Unmatched After-Tax Contribution. In no event during the year may (a) Matched Pre-Tax and Matched After-Tax Contributions exceed 6% of compensation, (b) Unmatched Pre-Tax and Unmatched After-Tax Contribution exceed 10% of compensation or (c) Pre-Tax Contributions exceed the amount specified by the Internal Revenue Service code which is $9,500. Pre-Tax Contributions shall constitute a reduction in the participant's taxable income for purposes of Section 401(k) of the Code but for the purpose of the Company's tax deductions, shall be considered contributions made by the Company. After-Tax Contributions will be considered to be the participant's contributions to the Plan and shall not constitute a reduction in the participant's taxable income for the purposes of Section 401(k) of the Code. - 9 - 10 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF SAVINGS PLAN, continued 1. General Description of Plan: (Continued) Pursuant to the Plan, the Company will make contributions in cash to the Trustee for the account of each participant in an amount equal to 50% of the first 6% of such participants' compensation designated as Matched Pre-Tax Contributions and/or Matched After-Tax Contributions. These contributions are referred to as "Company Matching Contributions". Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus actual earnings thereon. Vesting in the Company's Matching and Prior Match Accounts is based on years of vesting service. A Participant is 100% vested after five years of credited service. Custom Fund fees related to the Harsco Common Stock Fund and the Fidelity Magellan Fund are paid by the Company. Investment management fees related to the Fidelity Magellan Fund, the S&P 500 Fund, the International Equity Fund, the Asset Allocation Fund, the AIM Constellation Fund, and the Templeton Foreign Fund are paid by the Plan Participants. Participant directed investment fund change fees (not in excess of four changes per plan year) and Plan record keeping fees are paid by the Company. Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $500 to a maximum of 50% of their vested account balance, not to exceed $50,000. Loan transactions are treated as a transfer to (from) the respective investment fund(s) from (to) the Participant Loans fund. The Participant may choose the loan repayment period, not to exceed five years. However, the term may be for any period not to exceed 15 years if the purpose of the loan is to acquire the Participant's principal residence. The loans are collateralized only by the portion of the Participant's Account from which the loan is made and bear interest at a rate commensurate with local prevailing rates as determined periodically by the Plan administrator. Interest rates on outstanding loans, based on the Trustee's prime rate plus one percent, ranged from 7.19% to 10.0%. Principal and interest is paid ratable through payroll deductions. While the Company has not expressed any intent to discontinue the Plan, it reserves the right to terminate the Plan at any time or discontinue contributions thereunder. In the event such discontinuance resulted in the termination of the Plan, the accounts of each affected employee who has not yet incurred a break in service shall be fully vested. Complete distributions or withdrawals would be distributed to Plan Participants and beneficiaries in proportion to their respective account balances. - 10 - 11 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF SAVINGS PLAN, continued 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: Basis of Accounting: The financial statements of the Plan are prepared under the accrual method of accounting. Investment Valuation: The Harsco Corporation Common Stock is stated at market value, which represents the closing price of the stock on the Composite Reporting Tape of the stock exchanges on the last day of trading of the calendar year. Shares in the Income Accumulation Fund, the Fidelity Magellan Fund, the S&P 500 Fund, the International Equity Fund, the Asset Allocation Fund, the AIM Constellation Fund, the Templeton Foreign Fund, and the Bond Index Fund, are all stated at fair value, which represents the closing price on the last day of trading of the calendar year. Short-term investments, which represent the temporary investment of funds until purchases of common stock are completed, are invested in the BZW Barclays Global Investors Money Market Fund, which are stated at fair value. Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make significant 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Other: The Plan presents in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits with Fund Information the net appreciation (depreciation) in the market value of its investments which consists of the realized gains or losses and the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on those investments. The purchase and sales of investments are recorded on a trade-date basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income from other investments is recorded as earned on an accrual basis. Both participants' and Company contributions are accrued in the period of the related payroll deductions. Forfeitures, a result of participant withdrawals prior to their full vesting in the Plan, are used to reduce the amount of future Company matching contributions. - 11 - 12 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF SAVINGS PLAN, continued 3. Investment Programs: The Plan, comprised of participants' and Company contributions, is divided into the following funds described below. (1) Harsco Common Stock Fund - (consisting of Common Stock purchased with Company and participants' contributions): a fund consisting of Common Stock of Harsco Corporation purchased in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions to the extent permitted by rules of the New York Stock Exchange and the Securities and Exchange Commission. (2) Income Accumulation Fund - (consisting of investments purchased with participants' contributions): a fund consisting of investments in guaranteed investment contracts and synthetic guaranteed investment contracts that are individually negotiated between the Fund manager and the insurance companies and banks that issue them. (3) Fidelity Magellan Fund - (consisting of investments purchased with participants' contributions): a fund consisting of shares of the Fidelity Magellan Mutual Fund which is managed by Fidelity Management and Research Company, Boston, Massachusetts. (4) S&P 500 Fund - (consisting of investments purchased with participants' contributions): a fund consisting of investments in the same stocks and in substantially the same percentages as the S&P 500 Index. (5) International Equity Fund - (consisting of investments purchased with participants' contributions): a fund consisting of investments in foreign stocks in the equity markets of Western European and Pacific Rim countries. (6) Asset Allocation Fund - (consisting of investments purchased with participants' contributions): a fund consisting of investments among three asset classes consisting of S&P 500 Index common stocks, U.S. Treasury Bonds, and money market instruments. (7) AIM Constellation Fund - (consisting of investments purchased with participants' contributions): a fund consisting of investments in common stocks with emphasis on medium-sized and smaller emerging growth companies which is managed by AIM Management Group Inc., Houston, Texas. - 12 - 13 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF SAVINGS PLAN, continued 3. Investment Programs: (Continued) (8) Templeton Foreign Fund - (consisting of investments purchased with participants' contributions): a fund consisting of investments in stocks and debt obligations of companies and governments outside the U.S. which is managed by Templeton Funds, Inc., St. Petersburg, Florida. (9) Bond Index Fund - (consisting of investments purchased with participants' contributions): a fund consisting of investments in domestic bonds issued by the U.S. Treasury, U.S. government agencies, and high-quality bonds issued by U.S. corporations. If at any time it is not possible for the Trustee to purchase Common Stock of the Company as required for the Harsco Common Stock Fund, the Trustee will invest such funds in short-term obligations of the United States government or agencies thereof or in other types of short-term investments, including commercial paper (other than obligations of the Company or its affiliates). The Plan provides for various investment options as described above. Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market and credit. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term could materially affect participants' account balances and the amounts reported in the statement of net assets available for plan benefits and the statement of changes in net assets available for plan benefits. There were 5,388 participants at December 31, 1997 who participated in one or more of the nine investment funds. At December 31, 1997 the number of participants selecting each of the investment funds for their contributions was as follows: Harsco Corporation Common Stock Fund........................ 5,306 Income Accumulation Fund.................................... 1,892 Fidelity Magellan Fund...................................... 2,529 S & P 500 Stock Fund........................................ 2,711 International Equity Fund................................... 836 Asset Allocation Fund....................................... 1,637 AIM Constellation Fund...................................... 736 Templeton Foreign Fund...................................... 416 Bond Index Fund............................................. 270 - 13 - 14 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF SAVINGS PLAN, continued 4. Federal Income Taxes: The Company received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service on April 15, 1995, that the Plan, as amended September 15, 1994, is a qualified plan under Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code and is therefore exempt from Federal income taxes under the provisions of Section 501(a). The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. However, the Plan administrator and the Plan's tax counsel believe that the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. 5. Harsco Corporation Common Stock Split: On November 19, 1996, the Board of Directors declared a two-for-one stock split on the Company's common stock. One additional share was issued for each share of common stock held by shareholders of record as of the close of business on January 15, 1997. New shares were distributed on February 14, 1997.

("BGI"), ARE NOT GUARANTEED BY BGI AND INVOLVE INVESTMENT RISK, INCLUDING POSSIBLE LOSS OF PRINCIPAL. THE PRINCIPAL AND YIELD OF FUND SHARES OR PARTICIPATIONS WILL FLUCTUATE WITH CHANGES IN MARKET CONDITIONS SO THAT AN INVESTOR'S SHARES OR PARTICIPATIONS, WHEN REDEEMED, MAY BE WORTH MORE OR LESS THAN THEIR ORIGINAL COST.

Returns for periods over one year are annualized. AUTOMATED VOICE ANSWERLINE: To use the automated voice answer line, call 1-800-776-4015 and follow the instructions. FOR COLLECTIVE TRUST FUNDS SOURCE: Collective trust funds are unregistered collective investment funds that are maintained and offered by Barclays Global Investors. RETURNS: For all funds except the Money Market Fund and the U.S. Government Money Market Fund, all income is reinvested in the funds and is reflected in the unit value. RETURNS PRIOR TO INCEPTION: Daily fund inception dates vary; collective fund returns prior to inception are principally for less-frequently-valued funds with substantially similar investment strategies and have been adjusted for management fees and estimated fund expenses. See individual fund fact sheets for details. Results of a daily-valued fund may vary from those of a less-frequently-valued fund. FOR COMPANY CUSTOM FUNDS SOURCE: Company custom funds are unregistered custom separate accounts maintained by Barclays Global Investors and offered as an investment option by the plan sponsor. RETURNS: All income is reinvested in the funds and is reflected in the unit value. Daily fund inception dates vary. UNIT VALUE: The fund unit value and performance of a custom fund which is based on an underlying mutual fund differs from the net asset value and performance of the underlying mutual fund due to fees, expenses and crediting of income to units rather than purchase of additional shares. The custom fund also maintains cash holdings which may further contribute toward differences in performance between fund units and the underlying mutual fund NAV. HARSCO STOCK FUND: The fund maintains cash holdings which may account for the differences in performance between fund units and common shares.

Please read it carefully before investing. NON-AFFILIATION: The company sponsoring the plan through which these funds are made available is not affiliated with any of the sponsor/distributors discussed below. RETURNS: Total return figures represent the change in value of an investment over the specified periods and assume the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions. RETURNS SINCE INCEPTION: Returns since inception for funds in existence less than one year are not annualized; for funds in existence one year or longer, average annual returns are given. Returns since inception are required for mutual funds. Since the mutual funds may have existed for differing periods of time, their returns since inception may not be comparable. NAV INFORMATION: Fund net asset values are reported daily in most newspapers. FOR AIM MUTUAL FUNDS SPONSOR/DISTRIBUTOR: The AIM Constellation Fund is a mutual fund advised by A I M Distributors, Inc. The fund is not affiliated with Barclays Global Investors. Information for the AIM Constellation Fund provided by A I M Distributors, Inc.
