              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.   In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only
normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of
the Company as of September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997 and the results of
operations and cash flows for the nine and three month periods ended September
30, 1998 and 1997. Because of the nature of construction, operating results of
the Company on a quarterly basis may not be indicative of operating results for
the full year.
<PAGE>
ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION 
          AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

REVENUES

Total revenues for the third quarter of 1998 decreased by $4,807,000, or 31%, to
$10,815,000 from $15,622,000 for the third quarter of 1997. During the first
nine months of 1998 revenues decreased by $21,767,000, or 42%, to $30,525,000
from $ 52,765,000 for the first nine months of 1997. These decreases in revenues
for the third quarter and the first nine months of 1998 were due primarily to a
lower backlog of construction projects at December 31, 1997 compared to December
31, 1996. Backlog increased 23% from December 31, 1997 ($30,000,000) to
September 30, 1998 ($37,000,000)

COST OF SALES

Cost of sales for the third quarter decreased by $4,768,000, or 33%, to
$9,677,000 from $14,445,000 as a result of the decrease in sales revenue noted
above. Cost of sales for the first nine months of 1998 decreased by $20,48,000,
or 42%, to $28,409,000, from $48,895,000

GROSS PROFIT

Gross profit decreased by $39,000, or 3.3%, to $1,138,000 in the third quarter
of 1998 from $1,177,000 in the third quarter of 1997, primarily due to the
decrease in sales volume noted above. The gross profit percentage increased from
7.5% for the third quarter of 1997 to 10.5% in the third quarter of 1998. During
the third quarter of 1997, the Company had experienced additional unanticipated
costs on one of its projects which continued through the second quarter of 1998,
when the project was substantially completed. This additional cost in the first
six months of 1998 accounted for the lower gross profit margin (6.9%) for the
first nine months of 1998 compared to the first nine months of 1997 (7.3%).

The Company has submitted proposals totaling $3,676,823 with the general
contractor to recover these additional cost on this large, multi-year project.
In addition, the Company has filed a mechanic's lien against the property in the
amount of $5,534,084 covering these proposals, as well as retention and the
balance of its open receivables. While there is no guarantee that the Company
will be successful in collecting these proposals, management believes these
proposals to be meritorious. In accordance with generally accepted accounting
principals, the Company has not booked any revenues or profits with respect to
these proposals.
<PAGE>
SELLING GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") increased by $46,000, or
4%, to $1,094,000 in the third quarter of 1998 from $1,048,000 for the third
quarter of 1997. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, SG&A expenses
increased $336,000, or 11%, to $3,304,000 from $2,968,000 for the first nine
months of 1997. The Company has re-negotiated its lease for its Long Island City
facility which will result in a small reduction in overhead during the fourth
quarter and a larger reduction in 1999 when it surrenders a significant portion
of its space.

PROVISION FOR TAXES

The tax provision for the three months ended September 30, 1998 was $17,000 as
compared to a provision of $54,000 for the same period in 1997, due to the
profit/loss for the respective periods. The tax benefit for the nine months
ended September 30, 1998 was $581,000 as compared to a provision for taxes of
$296,000 for the same period in 1997, due to the profit/loss for the respective
periods.

NET GAIN/LOSS

The net income for the third quarter of 1998 was $17,000 compared to net income
of $63,000 for the third quarter of 1997 due to the items mentioned above. For
the nine months ended September 30, 1998, there was a net loss of ($639,000)
compared to a profit of $577,000 for the same period in 1997.

LIQUIDITY AND CASH FLOW

For the first nine months of 1998 cash provided by operations was $499,000. For
the same period in 1997 the cash used in operations was $3,793,000. The positive
cash flow for the first nine months of 1998 was a result of lower sales volume
and improved billings and collections.

While no significant capital improvements are projected over the next year, cash
may be needed to fund the start-up costs for new projects. The Company has not
used any portion of its revolving credit facility of $2,000,000 in 1998 and
believes the credit facility will be adequate to fund any expansion in 1998 and
1999.
<PAGE>
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE 

The Company uses computer software programs and operating systems in its
internal operations, including applications used in billing and various
administrative functions. The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs
being written using two digits rather than four to define the applicable year
and impacts both information technology ("IT") and non-IT systems. 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 cause the
Company to incur expenses and the risk and potential expense of any disruptions
that may be caused by the software's impaired functioning as the Year 2000
approaches and by the modification or replacement of such software, including a
temporary inability to send correct invoices or engage in similar normal
administrative activities.

Management has assessed its Year 2000 readiness and determined that all its
computer hardware and software programs are Year 2000 compliant. The Company,
therefore, does not expect to incur significant expenditures to address Year
2000 compliance. The ability of third parties with whom the Company transacts
business to address adequately their Year 2000 compliance is beyond the
Company's control. The Company is in the process of contacting its
subcontractors and material suppliers to determine, to the extent that they
utilize computers, their Year 2000 compliance status. The Company is a
mechanical contractor that relies heavily on the skills of its subcontractors
for its business. The Company currently believes the consequences of Year 2000
issues with respect to these third parties will not have a material effect on
the Company's business, results of operations or financial condition. However,
there can be no assurance that these estimates will occur and actual results
could differ from the Company's plans.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

All statements contained herein and in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations" that are not historical facts,
including but not limited to statements regarding the Company's current business
strategy, and plans for future development and operations are based upon current
expectations. These statements are forward-looking in nature and involve a
number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are not within the control of
the Company. Actual results may differ materially. The Company wishes to caution
readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements,
which statements are made pursuant to the Private Litigation Reform Act of 1995
and, as such, speak only as of the date made.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

There are no material lawsuits to which the Company or its subsidiary is a
party. Neither the Company nor its subsidiary is a party to any regulatory
investigation or inquiry with any governmental agency.

On a substantially completed construction project, the Company has filed a
mechanic's lien in the sum of $5,534,084 to secure its claim for proposals to
recover unforeseen impact costs in the amount of $3,676,823, together with the
Company's unpaid contract balance and retention. The Company is attempting to
recover the lien amount through negotiations with the general contractor in the
first instance, but may be compelled to institute a lawsuit if negotiations
prove unsuccessful.
