ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS

        On October 15, 1998, Group Maintenance America Corp. (the "Company") 
completed the acquisition of Stephen C. Pomeroy, Inc. ("Pomeroy"). The Company 
acquired Pomeroy pursuant to a merger (the "Merger") of Pomeroy with and into 
Pomeroy Acquisition Corp. ("PAC"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The
Merger was effected in accordance with the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the 
"Merger Agreement") dated as of October 15, 1998, among the Company, PEC, 
Pomeroy and the stockholders of Pomeroy. PEC was the surviving corporation of
the Merger. The purchase price paid or to be paid by the Company for Pomeroy
consists of $7.9 million in cash and 0.6 million shares of the Company's common
stock, par value $.001 per share ("Common Stock").

        Stephen C. Pomeroy, Ronald L. Pomeroy and Matthew A. DiGennaro, 
stockholders of Pomeroy prior to the Merger, will be employed by the surviving 
corporation after the Merger. After the Merger, Pomeroy will continue to lease a
facility from Pomeroy Properties, L.C., an entity controlled by Stephen C. 
Pomeroy.

        Pomeroy is engaged in the business of providing electrical and 
communication installation, maintenance and repair services for commercial 
customers in the Southeast Florida, marketplace. The assets of Pomeroy consist 
primarily of cash, accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, vehicles and 
goodwill. The Company expects that Pomeroy will continue to conduct its business
in substantially the same manner as conducted before the Merger.

        The cash portion of the consideration paid by the Company in connection 
with the Merger was provided pursuant to loans made under a Credit Agreement 
dated as of October 15, 1998 (the "Credit Agreement") among the Company, the 
subsidiaries of the Company, Chase Bank of Texas, National Association, as 
Agent, Bank of America Texas, N.A., as Co-Agent, Paribas, as Syndication Agent, 
ABN AMRO Bank, N.V., as Documentation Agent, and the banks named therein. Under 
the Credit Agreement, a syndicate of banks agreed to provide up to $230 million 
of financing to the Company on a secured basis.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                              SEPTEMBER 30, 1998



1.  BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION

  Steven C. Pomeroy, Inc.  (the "Company") performs electrical contracting
  service work in the South Florida area, primarily for general contractors and
  developers.  This work is performed under fixed price contracts subject to
  modification based on approved change orders and under time and material
  contracts.

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT POLICIES

  Use of Estimates

  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
  accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
  that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
  contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
  the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

  Revenue and Cost Recognition

  Revenues from fixed price contracts are recognized on the percentage of
  completion method. The completed percentage is measured by the percentage of
  cost incurred to date as compared to the estimated total cost for each
  contract, including work for approved change orders. Revenue from time and
  material contracts is accrued at the end of each month based on chargeable
  costs incurred through month end. Time and material contracts are billed for
  the number of man hours and costs incurred.

  Contract costs include all direct material, labor costs and a provision for
  indirect costs such as indirect labor and equipment costs. Selling, 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 revenues and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are
  determined.

  The Company's three largest customers accounted for 12%, 10% and 7%,
  respectively, of total revenues for the year ended September 30, 1998.

  Cash and cash equivalents

  For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers investments
  in money market accounts and certificates of deposits purchased with an
  original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  Cash paid
  for interest was $91 during fiscal 1998.

  Property and Equipment

  Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Depreciation is computed using the
  straight-line method over the useful lives of the assets.  Expenditures for
  major renewals and improvements, which extend the useful lives of existing
  equipment, are capitalized and depreciated.  The estimated useful lives of
  assets are as follows:
                                                        Years
        
  Vehicles.......................................        5-7
  Machinery and equipment........................        5-7
  Furniture and fixtures.........................        5-7


  Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense when incurred.
  Upon retirement or disposition of property and equipment, the cost and related
  accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain
  or loss is recognized in the statement of operations.

  Income Taxes

  The shareholders of the Company have elected to be taxed as an S Corporation
  under the Internal Revenue Code wherein the income is taxable to the
  shareholders and not to the Company. Accordingly, no provision for income
  taxes is recognized by the Company. The Company has made distributions to the
  shareholders each year at least in the amounts necessary to pay personal
  income taxes payable on the Company's taxable income.

  Credit Risk

  Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations
  of credit risk consist principally of cash, accounts receivable and costs and
  estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts.
