Item 1.   Business

General

         Danny and Tony Gibbs,  the Company's  two  executives,  acquired  Gibbs
Construction,  Inc.  (Gibbs  Construction,  Inc.  is  referred  to herein as the
"Company" unless the context  indicates  otherwise) in 1985 and began to conduct
their  construction  business  from that entity.  The Company  headquarters  are
located in Garland,  Texas,  a suburb of Dallas.  The Company is a full service,
national, commercial construction company. The Company's clients are principally
national retail chains that are engaged in aggressive expansion programs.  These
programs  usually  call for the  erection of  stand-alone  facilities  or "power
centers,"  which  typically have stores that range in size from 10,000 to 75,000
square feet. Some of the Company's  clients include Best Buy,  Eckerds,  Oshmans
Super  Sports,  BizMart,  Lil  Things,  Barnes & Noble,  Office  Max  (BizMart),
Petstuff, Just for Feet, Organized Living, Copy Max and Petsmart.

         In July of 1996,  the  Company  sold the  assets  of its  wholly  owned
subsidiary,  Bronco Bowl  Holding,  Inc.  which  operated a 136,000  square foot
complex,  the Bronco Bowl, on  approximately  twenty acres near downtown Dallas.
The  Company  acquired  the  property  in 1994,  and  although  the  complex had
previously  operated for many years, it was closed prior to the time the Company
acquired  it. The Company  performed  extensive  renovations  on the complex and
opened it in January of 1996 as a large, high volume, entertainment, recreation,
restaurant and meeting complex.  Because of operating  losses,  the Company sold
the  facility in 1996.  See "Item 7.  Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operation."

Construction Operations

         The  Company  acts as a general  contractor  for both  "ground  up" and
interior  "finish  out"  construction.  "Ground up"  construction  involves  the
construction  of a building's  shell,  that is,  construction  of the building's
floor, wall, and ceiling.  "Finish out" comprises  electrical work,  erection of
walls, painting,  demolition, air conditioning and heating systems and plumbing,
among other  activities.  The Company  focuses on the higher  margin  activities
involved  in  "finish  out"  work,  subcontracting  lower  margin  work to other
contractors.  In 1997,  approximately 35% of the Company's revenues were derived
from  "ground up" work and 65% from  "finish  out" work.  The  Company  plans to
allocate its resources to increase  significantly its "finish-out"  business due
to its high gross margins.

         The Company  utilizes  its own  personnel  throughout  a project  while
trying to minimize any subcontract  labor.  Personnel are sometimes flown to the
city where the  construction  occurs,  but normally  personnel and equipment are
transported by trucks and trailers to the  construction  site. The Company rents
corporate  apartment  housing when necessary,  housing three or four persons per
apartment.

         The Company  transports  Company owned small tools and equipment to the
construction  site  via  Company  owned  trucks.  The  Company  leases  or rents
particularly  heavy  equipment such as hoists,  cranes and personnel  lifts from
local equipment  suppliers when necessary for use on particular  projects.  Most
jobs,  including  out of state jobs,  can be organized  within seven to ten days
after award of the contract.

         Management  believes  that  using  its  own  personnel  offers  several
advantages: a consistent labor force that is familiar with the operational needs
of the customer as well as familiarity with the customer's type of construction;
close control over the work and construction schedule; increased focus on higher
margin activities such as demolition,  drywall,  painting,  electrical,  and air
conditioning  and heating systems by having a skilled work force in those areas;
and more efficient use of personnel.

Marketing of the Construction Business

         The Company's  construction business focuses on a clientele of publicly
held companies or companies  anticipating to become publicly held which have the
necessary funds  appropriated for construction  programs on a nation-wide basis.
The  specifically  targeted  companies  are national  retail chains that conduct
operations in stand-alone  facilities or "power-centers".  These national retail
companies are frequently engaged in aggressive  expansion programs,  which often
require the  construction of ten to fifty units of 10,000 to 100,000 square feet
per year on a nation-wide basis. In addition,  these retail chains often remodel
a large number of existing outlets,  providing a greater opportunity to generate
revenues for the Company.

         The  Company  believes  that  concentrating  on  this  targeted  market
provides for longer term growth and financial  stability.  Concentration on this
type of client  base also  allows  the  Company to  mitigate  the  cyclical  and
seasonal revenues which are often typical of the construction industry. Although
economic  contraction  often  reduces  retail  store's  expansion,  management's
experience  has been that most such  retail  chains  continue  to expand  during
recessions,  particularly  in areas of the  country  that are not  affected by a
recession or in which an economic slowdown is not as severe as in other parts of
the country.

         The Company usually experiences some work slowdown in the first quarter
of each  calendar  year due, in the opinion of  management,  to a slowing of the
bidding process during the holiday season.

         The Company does not engage in a formal  marketing  or selling  program
for the construction business.  Most work comes by referral or reputation with a
large amount of repeat business from existing customers. Management believes its
service and product will promote itself after the completion of a single project
for  a  national  chain,   providing  additional   construction  and  remodeling
opportunities after completion of the first contract. During 1997, approximately
77% of the Company business was repeat business from existing clients.

         Most clients which have stores under  construction  have revenues which
are directly  affected by the opening date of the store.  It is critical for the
Company to further  establish  and maintain a dependable  reputation  within the
industry to meet  completion  schedules.  To date,  the Company has never had to
delay the expected  completion date of a project.  After completion of the first
project  for a  new  client,  the  Company  is  able  to  develop  a  continuing
relationship  with its clients by  demonstrating  the Company's other advantages
such as: the ability to work  throughout  the United  States  regardless  of the
client's targeted area of expansion;  more consistent service and product due to
familiarity with the client construction and operational needs; more centralized
communication  since  numerous  projects  could be  discussed  at one time;  and
greater control over the  construction  schedule due to the use of the Company's
own crews.

         The Company does not engage in heavy  construction and provides neither
engineering  nor  architectural  services.  Only a small portion of its business
comes from  construction  in shopping  malls or finish out of commercial  office
buildings.  None of its business is derived from work  provided to  governmental
agencies.

         In 1997, the Company was engaged in over 115 projects for approximately
35 different clients.  Four clients,  Office Max (20%),  Oshmans (12%), and Just
for Feet (15%), accounted for approximately 47% of the Company's revenues during
1997. There can be no assurances that these clients will continue at the present
level or at all and the loss if any one of them would  have a  material  adverse
effect on the Company.

Contracting Process

         Almost all of the Company's  projects are  competitively bid on a fixed
price basis. The Company presently obtains  approximately 85% of all of its work
on a competitive bid basis. The Company  utilizes an estimating  process whereby
the project  manager  reviews every division and line item of the project.  Unit
costs are then  applied to each line item.  This  approach  not only  allows the
project manager to become extremely familiar with the details of the project but
also gives a good indication as to whether  subcontractor  prices are consistent
with market conditions.

         On site  inspections  are always made by the project  manager/estimator
prior to bid date. This allows the project manager to observe any  peculiarities
with the  project  and to make note of any  discrepancies  in the  architectural
documents.

Competition

         The Company believes that its construction  business competes on price,
reputation for quality,  timeliness,  familiarity with retail construction,  the
availability of aggregate materials and financial strength.  Management believes
the Company competes favorably on the basis of the foregoing factors.

         The market for construction services, particularly services to national
retail chains, is highly  competitive.  While the vast majority of the Company's
competitors  are  smaller  and may not be as well  capitalized,  several  of the
Company's  competitors are larger,  better known and have substantially  greater
marketing,  financial,  personnel  and other  resources,  including  established
reputations  and  working  relationships,  than  the  Company.  There  can be no
assurance  that the Company's  services will continue to be  competitive  in the
market place.

Government Regulation

         The  Company's  business  is  subject  to a variety  of state and local
governmental  regulations  and licensing  requirements  relating to construction
activities.  Prior to commencing work on a construction  project, the Company is
required to obtain building permits and, in some jurisdictions,  state and local
authorities   require  the  Company  to  obtain   demonstrating   knowledge   of
construction,  building,  fire and safety codes.  In order to complete a project
and obtain a  certificate  of  occupancy,  the Company is required to obtain the
approval of local authorities confirming compliance with these requirements.

         The Company has general  contractor  licenses in numerous  large states
and major metropolitan areas.

Insurance and Bonding

         The Company maintains general liability and excess liability  insurance
covering  its  construction   equipment  in  amounts  consistent  with  industry
practices.  Management  believes its insurance  programs are adequate.  Worker's
compensation  insurance  covering the leased  employees is provided  through the
employee leasing company from which the Company leases employees.

         Although  not  required by most  clients,  occasionally  the Company is
required to provide various types of surety bonds  guaranteeing  its performance
under certain  contracts.  The Company's  ability to obtain surety bonds depends
upon its capitalization, working capital, past performance, management expertise
and other factors. Surety companies consider such factors in light of the amount
of surety bonds then outstanding for the Company and their current  underwriting
standards,  which may  change  from time to time.  The  Company  has never  been
refused a surety bond.

Construction Employees

         The  Company  leases all of its field  employees  through  an  employee
leasing company.  The Company has utilized the same employee leasing company for
more than five years.  By doing so, the  Company is able to relieve  itself from
administration  surrounding  employment  practices.  In particular,  the Company
believes  that the  employee  leasing  company  is able to find  more  favorable
workers  compensation  insurance than it would otherwise be able to find as well
as develop and administer Company safety programs.

         At March 15, 1998,  the field  operations of the Company were conducted
by 22 superintendents  and 60 tradesmen.  A field  superintendent is assigned to
each project with the  responsibility  to oversee the day to day progress on the
project. The field superintendent reports directly to the project manager.

         In  addition  to Danny  and Tony  Gibbs,  the  Company  employs  in the
construction  business  20  persons,  including  7 project  managers,  6 project
assistants, 3 project accountants,  3 accounting clerks and a receptionist.  The
project  managers  typically  run  three  to  four  projects  at a time  and are
responsible for the overall  coordination and scheduling of each project as well
as communications with the client.

Item 2. Properties.

         The Company owns a 10,000 square foot office and warehouse  facility in
Garland,  Texas.  Offices presently occupy  approximately  6,000 square feet. Of
that  space,  the Company  completed  in March of 1996 and an  additional  2,500
square  feet that  enabled  the  Company  to have space for  additional  project
managers and four staff members capable of supporting operations.

         As of March 15, 1998,  the Company owned 10 trucks and 5 trailers.  The
Company also owned one tractor,  one fork lift and six scissor lifts.  This type
of  equipment  is used on  almost  all jobs,  and any  additional  equipment  or
machinery  required for a job is rented on an as needed  basis.  The Company has
very little inventory.  That which does exist primarily consists of left over or
unused material which can be used on the next project.





Item 3. Legal Proceedings

         The  Company  is  involved  in a number of legal  proceedings,  none of
which, in the opinion of management, is material.

Item 7. Management's Discussion And Analysis Of Financial Condition And Results 
         Of Operations.

Overview

         In 1997 the Company returned to its core business,  commercial building
construction  for  national  retail  chains.  In 1996 the Company  had  incurred
substantial  losses in connection with its operation of the Bronco Bowl, a large
entertainment  complex  which the Company sold in 1996.  See "Item 7. Business -
General." In 1997 the Company's net profit from operations was $584,900.

Results of Operations - 1997 Compared with 1996

         Revenues  from  continuing   operations  between  1997  and  1996  were
essentially  flat,  $47,993,287 in 1997 compared to $47,438,930 in 1996. In 1996
the Company added a substantial  number of new clients of which one did not have
projects that provided the Company with an adequate  margin.  Early in 1997, the
Company stopped bidding on this client's projects. Throughout 1997, new business
development  replaced the revenues derived from this client but revenues did not
grow in 1997.

         Similarly,  gross profits for 1997 and 1996 were  essentially the same,
$2,439,086  or 5.1% of revenue in 1997 compared to $2,490,249 or 5.2% of revenue
in 1996. While gross profits were unchanged compared to the previous year, gross
profit margins improved in the latter half of 1997 as the Company ceased work on
the projects undertaken for the client described above.

         Operating income from continuing  operations increased by approximately
17% to $1,070,089 in 1997  compared to $915,833 in 1996.  The increase  resulted
from the reduction in General and Administrative  expenses to $1,368,957 in 1997
from $1,574,416 in 1996. General and  Administrative  Expenses were more in 1996
as the  Company  dealt  with its first  year  being  public  and  administrative
expenses associated with the sale of the Bronco Bowl.

         The increase in operating  profits were  partially  offset by increased
interest  expense  in 1997 and  approximately  $52,000  in losses  in  temporary
investments.  Interest  expense  increased  due  to  interest  on  a  sales  tax
obligation the Company owes to the State of Texas.

         The effect of these  increases  in other  expenses  was to reduce  1997
income before taxes to approximately that of 1996,  $891,100 in 1997 compared to
$839,383  in 1996,  and net income in 1997 to  $584,900  compared to $546,383 in
1996.

Results of Operations - 1996 Compared with 1995

         Revenues  increased  approximately  42% from  $33,336,120  for the year
ended December 31,1995,  to $47,438,930 for the year ended December 31, 1996. In
1994 the  Company  had begun a program to add  additional  clients,  and by late
1995,  the Company had  succeeded in adding  several new clients.  The effect of
this program is reflected in the revenue growth enjoyed in 1996. However,  there
can be no  assurance  that the  recent  rate of growth can be  sustained  in the
future.

         Gross profit margins decreased from 10.4% in 1995 to 5.25% in 1996. The
decline in gross margins  resulted in a decline in gross profit from  $3,458,626
in 1995 to  $2,490,249  in 1996.  Although the third quarter of 1996 had a gross
profit margin of almost 10.0%, the other three quarter's gross profit margin was
significantly  lower. In the earlier quarters of 1996, margins were lower due to
management's  involvement  with the  Bronco  Bowl as well as a charge off of one
entire  project  where the client did not pay for work.  The fourth  quarter was
adversely  affected  by one  project  that had a  significant  number of weather
related problems.

         General and administrative  costs also increased  significantly in 1996
from 1995. In 1996 general and administrative costs were $1,574.416,  or 3.3% of
revenues,  compared  in  $903,294,  or 2.7% of  revenues,  in 1995.  Most of the
increase  is  attributable  to the costs of being  publicly  held as well as the
administrative costs related to closing and selling the Bronco Bowl.

         Because of lower  margins  and  increased  general  and  administrative
costs, net income in 1996 from continuing  operations  declined to $546,383 from
proforma net income in 1995 from continuing  operations of $1,592,835.  The 1995
year benefited from a $446,596 gain on temporary investments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The Company  moved to increase  its working  capital in 1997 to recover
from the losses arising from the Bronco Bowl's  operations and sale,  increasing
at December 31, 1997,  its current  ratio to 1.0 from 0.94 at December 31, 1996.
In 1997,  the Company also reduced its aggregate  indebtedness,  other than that
owed to its  officers,  to  $741,001 at December  31,  1997 from  $1,087,697  at
December  31,  1996.  The Company  plans to  continue  to improve its  operating
capital position through operations during 1998.

Benefit Plans

         1995 Incentive Stock Option Plan

         The  Company's  1995  Incentive  Stock  Option Plan was approved by the
Board of Directors and shareholders of the Company on August 15, 1995 to provide
for the grant of incentive  stock  options  within the meaning of Section 422 of
the Internal  Revenue  Code of 1986 as amended to officers and  employees of the
Company and  subsidiaries  of the Company.  A total of 200,000  shares of Common
Stock has been  authorized  and reserved for issuance  under the 1995  Incentive
Stock Option Plan,  subject to  adjustment  to reflect  changes in the Company's
capitalization  in the case of a stock split,  stock  dividend or similar event.
The  1995  Incentive  Stock  Option  Plan is  administered  by the  Compensation
Committee,  which  consists of the  Company's two "Outside  Directors."  Outside
Directors  shall mean only those directors of the Company or a subsidiary of the
Company  who are not  regular  salaried  employees  of either  the  Company or a
subsidiary as of the date the option is granted. The Compensation  Committee has
the sole  authority  to interpret  the 1995  Incentive  Stock  Option  Plan,  to
determine  the persons to whom options will be granted,  to determine  the basis
upon which the options  will be granted,  and to determine  the exercise  price,
duration and other terms of options to be granted under the 1995 Incentive Stock
Option Plan;  provided that, (i) the exercise price of each option granted under
the 1995 Incentive  Stock Option Plan may not be less than the fair market value
of the Common  Stock on the day of the grant of the  option,  (ii) the  exercise
price must be paid in cash and or stock upon  exercise of the  option,  (iii) no
option may be  exercisable  for more than 10 years after the date of grant,  and
(iv) no option is  transferable  other than by will or the laws of  descent  and
distribution.  No option is exercisable  after an optionee ceases to be employed
by the  Company  or a  subsidiary  of the  Company,  subject to the right of the
Compensation  Committee to extend the exercise  period for not more than 90 days
following the date of termination of an optionee's  employment.  An optionee who
was a director  or advisor  may  exercise  his option at any time within 90 days
after such optionee's  status as a director or advisor  terminates to the extent
he was  entitled  to  exercise  such  option at the date of  termination  of his
status. If an optionee's  employment is terminated by reason of disability,  the
Compensation  Committee has the authority to extend the exercise  period for not
more  than  one  year  following  the  date  of  termination  of the  optionee's
employment  or service as an advisor or director.  If an optionee dies and shall
hold options not fully  exercised,  such options may be exercised in whole or in
part within one year of the optionee's death by the executors or  administrators
of the optionee's estate or by the optionee's heirs. The vesting period, if any,
specified for each option will be accelerated upon the occurrence of a change of
control or threatened change of control of the Company.

         Outside Directors Stock Option Plan

         The Outside  Directors  Stock  Option Plan was approved by the Board of
Directors and  shareholders of the Company on August 15, 1995. A total of 50,000
shares of Common Stock has been  authorized  and reserved for issuance under the
Outside Directors Stock Option Plan, subject to adjustment to reflect changes in
the Company's  capitalization  in the case of a stock split,  stock  dividend or
similar event.  The Outside  Directors  Stock Option Plan is administered by the
Stock Option  Committee which consists of Danny Gibbs and Tony Gibbs.  The Stock
Option Committee has the sole authority to interpret the Outside Directors Stock
Option  Plan,  to  determine  the persons to whom  options  will be granted,  to
determine the basis upon which the options will be granted, and to determine the
exercise  price,  duration  and other  terms of options to be granted  under the
Outside  Directors  Stock Option Plan;  provided that, (i) the exercise price of
each option granted under the Plan may not be less than the fair market value of
the Common Stock on the day of the grant of the option,  (ii) the exercise price
must be paid in cash and or stock upon  exercise of the option,  (iii) no option
may be exercisable  for more than 10 years after the date of grant,  and (iv) no
option  is  transferable  other  than  by  will  or  the  laws  of  descent  and
distribution.  If an optionee's  status as an Outside Director is terminated for
any reason  other than death,  the  optionee may exercise his option at any time
within 90 days after such termination to the extent it was then exercisable.  If
an optionee  dies while an Outside  Director and shall not have fully  exercised
options granted under the Outside  Directors Stock Option Plan, such options may
be  exercised in whole or in part within six months of the  optionee's  death by
the executors or  administrators  of the optionee's  estate or by the optionee's
heirs. The vesting period, if any, specified for each option will be accelerated
upon the  occurrence of a change of control or  threatened  change of control of
the Company.

         Options under the Outside  Directors Stock Option Plan are granted only
to Outside  Directors  selected by the Committee.  Outside  Directors shall mean
only those  directors of the Company or a subsidiary  of the Company who are not
regular salaried  employees of either the Company or a subsidiary as of the date
the option is  granted.  As of the date of this  Prospectus,  none of the Common
Stock  reserved for issuance in either the Outside  Directors  Stock Plan or the
1995 Incentive Stock Option Plan had been issued.

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management.

               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Gibbs Construction, Inc. and Subsidiary
Garland, Texas

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Gibbs
Construction, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 1996 and 1997, and the
related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash
flows for each of the years in the three year period ended December 31, 1997.
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 audit.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Gibbs Construction,
Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 1996 and 1997, and the results of its
operations and cash flows for each of the years in the three year period ended
December 31, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                     GIBBS CONSTRUCTION, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                        DECEMBER 31, 1995, 1996, AND 1997


NOTE 1:         SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    General

    Gibbs Construction, Inc. (the "Company"), is a full service, national
    commercial construction company located in Garland, Texas. The Company
    operates throughout the United States, providing construction services
    principally to national retail store chains.

    Subsidiary and Principles of Consolidation

    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Gibbs
    Construction, Inc. and its wholly owned inactive subsidiary, Bronco Bowl
    Holding, Inc. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have
    been eliminated in consolidation.

    Temporary Investments

    The Company has entered into numerous account agreements with stockbrokers
    and participates in an active trading program in equity securities, listed
    on nationally recognized stock exchanges. The fair value for temporary
    investment securities are based on quoted market prices.

    Revenue Recognition

    Revenues from construction contracts are recognized on the
    percentage-of-completion method, measured by the percentage of total direct
    job costs incurred to date to estimated total direct job costs for each
    contract. This method is used because management considers expended direct
    job costs to be the best available measure of progress on contracts.

    Contract costs include all direct material, labor and sub-contract costs and
    those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect
    labor, supplies, tools and repair costs. General and administrative costs
    are charged to expense as incurred. Provisions for estimated losses on
    uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are
    determined. Changes in job performance, job conditions and estimated
    profitability, including those arising from contract penalty provisions and
    final contract settlements, may result in revisions to costs and income and
    are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined. An
    amount equal to contract costs attributable to claims is included in
    revenues when realization is probable and the amount can be reliably
    estimated.

    Revenue Recognition (Continued)

    The asset "costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted
    contracts," represents revenues recognized in excess of amounts billed. The
    liability "billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted
    contracts," represents billings in excess of revenues recognized.

                        DECEMBER 31, 1995, 1996, AND 1997


NOTE 1:         SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

    Buildings and Equipment

    Depreciation of buildings and equipment is provided principally on the
    straight-line method using estimated useful lives ranging from five to
    twenty-five years.

    Major renewals and betterments are added to the property accounts while the
    cost of repairs and maintenance is charged to operating expenses in the
    period incurred. Cost of assets retired or otherwise disposed of and the
    applicable accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and the
    resultant gain or loss, if any, is reflected in operations.

    Federal Income Taxes

    From May 31, 1992 to December 31, 1995, the Company elected to be taxed as
    an "S" corporation under the Internal Revenue Code; therefore, for that
    period the Company's stockholders were required to include in their personal
    tax returns the income and expenses of the Company and pay any applicable
    federal income taxes. As of May 31, 1992, the Company reflected a retained
    earnings balance of $212,975, which was subjected to federal income taxes
    when earned. The Company returned to the "C" Corporation status on December
    31, 1995.

    The Company accounts for income taxes, pursuant to the provisions of
    Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income
    Taxes" (SFAS No. 109), which requires recognition of deferred tax
    liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events
    that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under
    this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the
    difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and
    liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the
    differences are expected to reverse.

    Pension and Employee Benefit Plans

    The Company has established a flexible benefits plan for its employees. The
    purpose of this plan is to provide eligible employees a choice between cash
    and specified welfare benefits.

    The Company has established a deferred contribution profit sharing plan
    (401(k) Plan), covering substantially all employees. This plan allows both
    the Company and eligible employees to contribute to the plan.

    No significant contributions were made to the plans by the Company in 1995,
    1996, or 1997.

    Use of Estimates

    The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
    accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
    assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.
    Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 1:         SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

    Cash Flows

    The Company considers cash to be cash equivalents for purposes of preparing
    the statements of cash flows.

    New Accounting Standards

    Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted the provisions of the
    Financial Accounting Standards Board's Statement of Financial Accounting
    Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long- Lived Assets and
    for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" (Statement No. 121). Statement No.
    121 requires long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be
    reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
    that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When it is
    determined that an asset's estimated future net cash flows will not be
    sufficient to recover its carrying amount, an impairment loss must be
    recorded to reduce the carrying amount to its estimated fair value. The
    adoption of Statement No. 121 did not have a material effect on the
    Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

    In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
    Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share"
    (Statement No. 128), which is required to be adopted for financial
    statements issued for annual or interim periods after December 15, 1997. The
    adoption of Statement No. 128 requires a change in the presentation of
    earnings per share (EPS) to replace primary and fully diluted EPS with a
    presentation of basic and diluted EPS and to restate EPS for all periods
    presented. The adoption of Statement No. 128 did not have a material impact
    on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

                        DECEMBER 31, 1995, 1996, AND 1997


NOTE 1:         SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

    In February 1997, the FASB also issued Statement of Financial Accounting
    Standards No. 129, "Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure"
    (Statement No. 129). Statement No. 129 establishes standards for disclosing
    information about entity's capital structure and applies to all entities.
    Statement No. 129 continues the previous requirements to disclose certain
    information about an entity's capital structure found in APB Opinions No.
    10, "Omnibus Opinion -- 1996", and 15, "Earnings per Share", and FASB
    Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 27, "Disclosure of Long-Term
    Obligations", for entities that were subject to the requirements of APB
    Opinions 10 and 15 and Statement No. 47 and consolidates them for ease of
    retrieval and for greater visibility to non-public entities. Statement No.
    129 is effective for financial statements for periods ending after December
    15, 1997. The adoption of Statement No. 129 did not have a material impact
    on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

    In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
    No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" (Statement No. 130). Statement No.
    130 establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income
    and its components (revenues, expenses, gains and losses) in a full set of
    general purpose financial statements. Statement No. 130 requires that all
    items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as
    components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that
    is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. It does
    not require a specific format for that financial statement but requires that
    an entity display an amount representing total comprehensive income for the
    period in that financial statement. Statement No. 130 is effective for
    fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. Reclassification of
    financial statements for earlier periods provided for comparative purposes
    is required. Statement No. 130 will have no impact on the financial
    condition or results of operations of the Company, but will require changes
    in the Company's disclosure and presentation requirements.

                           1999                          8,364
                           2000                            289
                                                      --------
                                                       $19,837

    For the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996, and 1997, the lease payments
    aggregated $23,592, $13,326, and 14,984, respectively.

NOTE 7:         MAJOR CUSTOMERS AND RISK CONCENTRATION

    In 1997, the Company derived approximately 59% of its revenue from six (6)
    customers, in 1996, the Company derived approximately 63% of its revenue
    from five (5) customers; and in 1995, the Company derived substantially all
    construction revenues from seven (7) customers.

    The Company grants credit, generally without collateral, to its customers,
    which are located primarily within the forty-eight contiguous United States.
    Management believes that it's contract acceptance, billing and collection
    policies are adequate to minimize potential credit risks.

    At December 31, 1996 and 1997, the Company had deposits aggregating $595,335
    and $1,275,602, respectively with a bank. Such deposits exceed the Federal
    Deposit Insurance Corporation's insurance coverage.

    The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, accounts payable, notes
    payable, and long term debt approximate their fair values.


NOTE 8:         CONTINGENCIES

    The Company has entered into guarantee arrangements on contracts in the
    ordinary course of business. The guarantee period is generally one year.
    Cost of repairs on guarantee arrangements cannot be reasonably estimated.
    Warranty costs incurred for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996, and
    1997, were $20,143, $14,343, and $31,304, respectively.

    The Company is a defendant in various legal proceedings arising in
    connection with its business. In management's opinion the financial position
    of the Company will not be materially affected by the final outcome of these
    legal proceedings.
