              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                       MARCH 31, 1996 AND 1995


NOTE 1:  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Rule 10-01 of Regulations S-X.  They do not include all information and
notes required by generally accepted accounting principals for complete
financial statements.  However, except as disclosed, there has been no
material change in the information disclosed in the notes to consolidated
financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Gibbs
Construction, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 1995.  In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating
results for the three month period ended March 31, 1996, are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December
31, 1996.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.

Revenues from the construction business for the quarter ended March 31, 1996,
were $6,804,744, an increase of $1,517,179 or approximately 29% over
$5,287,565 in construction revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 1995, with
gross margins in the construction business declining in the 1996 quarter to
4.6% from 7.8% in the comparable quarter of 1995.  The margins in construction
revenues declined principally because the Company has expanded its bidding and
construction support staff in anticipation of growth in the construction
business.  Nonetheless, the Company had five jobs with one customer whose
margins were less than that the Company normally receives.

The Company's General and Administrative Expenses increased approximately 230%
or $389,048, to $557,481 in the quarter ended March 31, 1996, from $168,433 in
the quarter ended March 31, 1995.  The largest factor causing a rise in the
Company's general and administrative costs is due to a charge of approximately
$212,000 relating to an uncollected receivable that was created in the first
quarter of 1996. The Company plans to collect this receivable in the second or
third quarter of 1996. A portion of this increase is also attributable to a
planned increase in staff necessary to support planned growth in the
construction business.  In addition General and Administrative Expenses
increased because of the expense of being a public company. 

The Company incurred a net loss of $825,080 and a pretax loss of $1,227,251
for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, compared to a profit of $130,437 in the
comparable 1995 quarter.  The Bronco Bowl had an operating loss of $947,222
for the quarter ended March 31, 1996.  In addition to the increased General
and Administrative Expense referred to above and the decrease in gross
margins, the net loss is principally attributable to the large operating loss
from the Bronco Bowl.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company closed its public offering in January of 1996.  The costs of
opening the Bronco Bowl and its operational losses absorbed the liquidity
derived from that offering.  Since the end of the first quarter of 1996 the
operational losses of the Bronco Bowl have diminished although they remain
significant and constitute a large cash drain on the Company's liquidity.  At
the end of April of 1996, the Company borrowed $1,000,000 for one year with
such loan being secured by all of the assets of the Bronco Bowl.

The Company is taking several steps to support its ongoing operations.  As of
May 1, 1996, the Company had contracts for more than $20,000,000 in
construction contracts.  Management of the Company believes that these
contracts will provide significant liquidity to the Company's operations.  In
addition the Company is seeking to privately place a portion of its Common
Stock to provide liquidity while the Company completes its construction
contracts.  The Company has also determined to restrict the operations of the
Bronco Bowl, reviewing the times of operation and whether to restrict
opertions to special events.  The reduction in operations at the Bronco Bowl
would represent a return of focus to the Company's core business.
