PART I
ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
The unaudited financial statements for the six-month period ended June 30, 2000,
are attached hereto.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company's
unaudited financial statements and notes thereto included herein. In connection
with, and because it desires to take advantage of, the "safe harbor" provisions
of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company cautions
readers regarding certain forward-looking statements in the following discussion
and elsewhere in this report and in any other statement made by, or on the
behalf of the Company, whether or not in future filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Forward-looking statements are statements not based on
historical information and which relate to future operations, strategies,
financial results or other developments. Forward-looking statements are
necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to
significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies,
many of which are beyond the Company's control and many of which, with respect
to future business decisions, are subject to change. These uncertainties and
contingencies can affect actual results and could cause actual results to differ
materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by, or on
behalf of, the Company. The Company disclaims any obligation to update
forward-looking statements.
OVERVIEW
In November 1998, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding
securities of Naidger Power Systems, Inc., which resulted in a significant
change in the Company's principal business, from a security guard business to a
holding company whose subsidiaries are engaged in the production of metal parts
and sub-assemblies, primarily the gas meter, white goods and auto parts sector,
as well as the design and production of tools, injection molds, dies and
assembly jigs for use in the production of gas meters, white goods, auto parts
and telecommunication equipment. As a result, management is presenting the
following discussion as if the Company had acquired and operated the aforesaid
businesses for the previous two-year periods, in order to provide a better
analysis of the Company's current and prior results of operations.
Subsequent to June 30, 2000, management did review the existing business plan of
the Company and has decided to explore the possibility of revising the same. In
this regard, subsequent to June 30, 2000, the Company added various new members
of management. It is anticipated that the Company will change its business plan
by disposing of its current assets by either selling or spinning off Polcorp. In
addition, the Company currently plans to acquire certain Internet related
assets. While current management has had discussions with various third parties
relating to these prospective acquisitions, as of the date of this report no
definitive arrangements to acquire such assets has been reached. The discussion
below has been presented as if the Company will continue with its current course
of business and does not contain any plan of operation of the new business
direction due to the fact that such plan is still in the development stage and
has not yet been finalized.
The following information is intended to highlight developments in the Company's
operations to present the results of operations of the Company, to identify key
trends affecting the Company's businesses and to identify other factors
affecting the Company's results of operations for the six-month periods ended
June 30, 2000 and 1999.

<PAGE>
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Comparison of Results of Operations for the Six-Month Periods Ended June 30,
2000 and 1999
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, the Company's revenues
decreased, as it generated revenues of $1,194,480, compared to revenues of
$1,361,036 for the similar period in 1999, a decrease of $166,556 (12%). This
decrease in revenues was attributable to a 2% decrease in revenues as reported
in zlotys (the local currency in Poland), and a decrease of 10% resulting from a
change in the exchange rate from 4.1 zlotys per dollar at June 30, 1999 to 4.3
zlotys per dollar at June 30, 2000. In the six-month period ended June 30, 2000,
costs of sales decreased 5%, to $1,061,398, compared to $1,116,870 for the
similar period in 1999, a decrease of $55,472. This was due primarily to a 6%
increase in costs of sales as reported in zlotys, and a decrease of 11%
resulting from the change in the exchange rate. Operating expenses were $538,977
for the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to $597,048 for the similar
period in 1999, a decrease of $58,071 (10%). This decrease came about due
primarily to decreases in selling and administrative expenses. Such decrease was
principally due to decreases in professional fees in comparison to the same
period for the previous year.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's principal business, production of metal parts and tools, is a
capital intensive operation which requires periodic capital expenditures to
replace or upgrade manufacturing equipment as well as expenditures to maintain
existing equipment. To date, such expenditures have been principally financed by
cash flows from operations of the Company's operating subsidiaries. Significant
expenditures of the parent company include the servicing of debt related to the
acquisition of the Metrix Companies and ongoing general and administrative costs
incurred in connection with public reporting requirements and in investigating
new potential acquisition candidates in accordance with the Company's continuing
expansion plans. To date, such expenditures have been financed by equity capital
contributions and related party loans. These capital contributions and loans
have been adequate to permit the Company to carry on operations to date.
However, it will be necessary to finance operations over the coming year with
additional funds raised through the issuance of debt or equity securities.
On June 26, 1998, Polcorp acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of
Metrix Tools, LLC ("MTL") and Metrix Metal, LLC ("MML") in exchange for notes
payable in the amounts of 430,000 Polish zlotys ($122,717 US dollars) and
930,000 Polish zlotys ($265,411 US dollars), respectively. These notes provide
for repayment in US Dollars based on the exchange rate at ING Bank S.A., Warsaw,
Poland. The notes are payable in four (4) equal installments commencing 90 days
after the date of the agreement. The balance of the installments were due 270,
450 and 630 days following the date of the agreement. Each installment includes
interest at the rate of 8% annually increased by the inflation ratio in Poland.
Failure to tender timely payment results in an interest charge of 20% annually.
This debt is secured by the stock of MTL and MML. As of the date of this report,
the Company has temporarily suspended the payments which were due in 1999 and
2000, during the negotiations to acquire Metrix, S.A., as more fully described
in Part I, Item I, above. While the Company is technically in default of its
obligations under the notes because it did not make the required payment, the
Company has not received any notice of default. The balance due on these notes
as of June 30, 2000 was $228,990.
The Company has $70,000 of notes payable to a stockholder. The notes arose from
advances made by the stockholder to the Company. The notes bear interest at
prime plus 5.25% to 6.0% and are due May 1999 through January 2000. The notes
are collateralized by the Company's accounts receivable and property and
equipment, but are subordinated to other secured debt. The Company is in the
process of re-negotiating payment terms for the notes.

<PAGE>
Assuming that the Company's current operations continue as existing, Management
intends to undertake a plan of expansion and in order to effectuate the same,
has recognized the Company's need for additional operating capital. In response
thereto, it is expected that the Company will continue to seek out additional
equity or debt capital from individuals, venture capitalists and institutions
during the fiscal year ending December 31, 2000. However, as of the date of this
report, no definitive agreement has been reached between the Company and any
funding source and none is expected in the foreseeable future. Failure of the
Company to obtain additional capital in the future will have a negative impact
on management's ability to continue its efforts to expand the Company's business
and generate profits from existing operations.
TRENDS
As of the date of this report, the Company is primarily focused on the
development and expansion of (i) infrastructure manufacturing and (ii) the
acquisition and growth of proprietary flow measurement and control devices in
the gas and electricity meter sectors (utility metering). With particular
reference to (i), and with the understanding that no assurances can be provided,
the Company is forecasting double-digit growth in both its tool making and metal
fabrication operations as an increasing number of domestic concerns outsource
their infrastructure manufacturing requirements to reduce internal costs. In
addition, management believes that multinationals recognize that Poland offers
large pools of skilled labor and lower production costs relative to their
domestic marketplace. The outsourcing by western firms of the Company's
infrastructure manufacturing units continues to show strength, with planned
revenue growth from internal operations exceeding 10-15% commencing in fiscal
2000.
The Company's entry into the proprietary gas and electricity metering business
is scheduled for the fiscal 2000, presuming that the proposed acquisitions of
PAFAL SA and METRIX SA, both major suppliers of metering devices to the utility
sector in POLAND, are successfully consummated, of which there can be no
assurance. PAFAL is a manufacturer of electricity meters with an annual turnover
of $35,000,000 and a 83% market share, while METRIX is a producer of gas meters
with an annual turnover of $15,000,000 and a 40% share of domestic meters and a
100% share of the industrial market.
It is anticipated that the domestic market in Poland for electricity meters will
exceed a 10% growth rate over the next 12 months as a result of both new
technological enhancements to existing products and new and/or refurbished
installations. Coupled with its strong domestic position, PAFAL anticipates that
strong potential gains in sales and profitability lie in burgeoning
international markets for its metering technologies.
While domestic gas meter sales in POLAND have remained stable over the past
year, METRIX SA has recently completed the development cycle for a new
generation of plastic injection molded meters which will eventually replace its
G4 series of domestic meters. The new meters are smaller in size and less costly
than existing metal-framed meters and are well-suited for growth in the domestic
market, not only in Poland, but in numerous international markets. Management
also sees growth in the gas meter business as a result of (1) recent substantial
price increases in Poland in alternate energy sources; (2) a reduction in the
mandatory inspection period from 30 to 15 years; (3) a trend to individual
metered premises; (4) the growth in residential construction; (5) substantial
refurbishment and/or new construction of industrial sites; and (6) export
markets encouraged by a growing requirement in international markets to monitor
costs and increase gas revenues.

INFLATION
Although the operations of the Company are influenced by general economic
