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 although the Company
has begun to construct small hotels. 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, Oshmans Super Sports, Barnes & Noble, Office
Max, Petstuff, Just for Feet, 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 performed extensive renovations on the
complex, opening it in January of 1996. Because of operating losses, the Company
sold the facility later 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
1998, 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



<PAGE>



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 1998, approximately
79% 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 1998, the Company was engaged in over 120 projects for approximately 40
different clients. Two clients, Office Max (12%) and Just for Feet (22%),
accounted for approximately 34% of the Company's revenues during 1998. 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.



<PAGE>



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, 1999, the field operations of the Company were conducted by 25
superintendents and 102 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 21 persons, including 8 project managers, 8 project assistants, one
project accountant, 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, 1999, the Company owned 15 trucks and 5 trailers. The Company
also owned two tractors, two fork lifts 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



<PAGE>



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 1998 the Company's net profit from operations was $465,707.

Results of Operations - 1998 Compared with 1997

Revenues from continuing operations between 1998 and 1997 increased
approximately 13.6% to $54,496,848 in 1998 compared to $47,993,287 in 1997. The
increase is principally attributable to expanding the Company's operations
beyond retail construction to small hotels.

Gross profits for 1998 increased to $3,282,871 in 1998 or approximately 6.0% of
revenues compared to $2,439,086 or 5.1% of revenue in 1997. The Company enjoyed
particularly strong gross margins in the fourth quarter from its construction on
several retail construction projects.

Operating income from continuing operations, however, decreased to $752,966 in
1998 from $1,070,089 in 1997. The decrease resulted from an increase in 1998 in
General and Administrative expenses principally because the Company wrote off
$842,758 of accounts receivable, of which $637,632 was written off in the fourth
quarter of 1998. In addition, the Company recognized $166,670 in 1998 in
litigation expense compared to $62,213 in 1997 related to collection of
aforesaid receivables.

The effect of these increases in General and Administrative Expense was to
reduce 1998 income before taxes to approximately $731,772 in 1998 compared to
$891,100 in 1997, and net income in 1998 to $465,707 compared to $584,900 in
1997.

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.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company finances its operations largely without debt. The debt it does incur
principally relates to the financing of vehicles and equipment. In 1998 the
Company did encumber its headquarters facility, borrowing approximately $300,000
there on but liquidating a sales tax obligation to the State of Texas. The note
requires monthly payments of $5,834 and matures April 30, 2003.

The Company moved to continue to increase its working capital in 1998,
increasing at December 31, 1998, its current ratio to 1.07 from 0.94 at December
31, 1996. The Company plans to continue to improve its operating capital
position through operations during 1998.

Year 2000 Computer Issues

The Company has determined, after formal review, that it will not be required to
modify or replace significant portions of its software to avoid any disruptions
that arise because a number of computer programs use two digits rather than four
when computing dates. The Company has initiated formal communications with all
of its significant suppliers and large customers to determine the extent to
which the Company's systems are vulnerable to those third parties' failure to
remediate their own Year 2000 issues. However, the can be no guarantee that the
systems of other companies on which the Company's systems rely will be timely
converted and would not have and adverse effect on the Company's systems. The
total cost of the Year 2000 project is not expected to be significant.

Benefit Plans

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



<PAGE>



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.

               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, 1998 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, 1998.
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, 1998 and 1997, and the results of their
operations and cash flows for each of the years in the three year period ended
December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



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 and Puerto Rico, 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.

    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.

    Receivables and payables related to construction contracts are generally
    expected to be paid in less than one year.

                                   (Continued)

NOTE 1:     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

    Accounts Receivable

    Accounts receivable consists of amounts due on open customer accounts,
    contract balances billed, retainage, and sundry accounts receivable. Prior
    to 1998, the Company had not established an allowance for doubtful accounts
    and did not use the reserve method for recognizing bad debts. Bad debts were
    treated as direct write-offs in the period management determined that
    collection was not probable. Bad debts as determined under this method did
    not vary significantly from the reserve method. In 1998, the Company
    experienced collection problems resulting in the adoption of the reserve
    method to account for uncollectible accounts receivable.

    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.

NOTE 1:     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

    Pension and Employee Benefit Plans (Continued)

    No significant contributions were made to the plans by the Company in 1998,
    1997, or 1996.

    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.

    Cash Flows

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

    Basic Earnings Per Share

    Basic earnings (loss) per share was computed using the weighted average
    outstanding common shares for the applicable periods. The diluted earnings
    (loss) per share is the same as basic since inclusion of the stock warrants
    in the computation would have been anti-dilutive.

    Accounting for Long-Lived Assets

    The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121,
    "Accounting For The Impairment Of Long-Lived Assets And For Long-Lived
    Assets To Be Disposed Of". The Company reviews long-lived assets, certain
    identifiable assets and any goodwill related to those assets for impairment
    whenever circumstances and situations change such that there is an
    indication that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. At December 31,
    1998, the Company believes that there has been no impairment of its
    long-lived assets.

    Impact of Year 2000 (Unaudited)

    The Year 2000 Issue is the result of computer programs being written using
    two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Any of the
    Company's computer programs that have time-sensitive software may recognize
    a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could
    result in a system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of
    operations, including, among other things, a temporary inability to process
    transactions, send invoices, or engage in similar normal business
    activities.

    Based on a recent assessment, the Company determined that it will not be
    required to modify or replace significant portions of its software so that
    its computer systems will function properly with respect to dates in the
    year 2000 and thereafter. The Company believes that the Year 2000 Issue will
    not pose significant operational problems for its computer systems.

NOTE 1:     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

    Impact of Year 2000 (Unaudited)

    The Company has initiated formal communications with all of its significant
    suppliers and large customers to determine the extent to which the Company's
    systems are vulnerable to those third parties' failure to remediate their
    own Year 2000 Issues. However, there can be no guarantee that the systems of
    other companies on which the Company's systems rely will be timely converted
    and would not have an adverse effect on the Company's systems. The total
    cost of the Year 2000 project is not expected to be significant.

    Excess costs and billings are as follows:

NOTE 7:     MAJOR CUSTOMERS AND RISK CONCENTRATION

    In 1998, the Company derived approximately 58% of its revenue from five (5)
    customers, In 1997, the Company derived approximately 59% of its revenue
    from six (6) customers, and in 1996, the Company derived approximately 63%
    of its revenue from five (5) customers.

    The following customers exceeded 10% of total revenues for their respective
    years:


                                      1998              1997              1996

            Office Max                12.1%              14.6%             22.5%
            Oshman's                     -               12.1%             13.6%
            Eckerds                      -                  -              11.4%

    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.

    The Company's concentration of credit risk related to receivables from
    significant customers is reduced by the Company's practice of filing
    statutory liens on projects where collection problems are anticipated. The
    liens serve as collateral for contract receivables.

    At December 31, 1998, the Company had deposits aggregating $1,511,455 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, 1998, 1997, and
    1996 were $5,317, $31,314, and $14,343, respectively.

    The Company is a defendant in various legal proceedings arising in the
    ordinary course of business. The Company intends to vigorously defend these
    actions which it considers groundless. While it is not possible to forecast
    the outcome of such litigation, it is the opinion of management that the
    disposition of such lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on the
    Company's financial position or interfere with its operations.
