Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

NOTE A  Basis of Presentation

The accompanying  condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared
by EMCOR Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries ("EMCOR"),  without audit, pursuant to the
interim  period  reporting  requirements  of Form  10-Q.  Consequently,  certain
information  and note  disclosures  normally  included in  financial  statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted  accounting  principles have been
condensed or omitted.  Readers of this report  should refer to the  consolidated
financial  statements  and the notes thereto  included in EMCOR's  latest Annual
Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

In the  opinion of EMCOR,  the  accompanying  unaudited  condensed  consolidated
financial  statements  contain  all  adjustments  (consisting  only of a  normal
recurring  nature)  necessary to present fairly the financial  position of EMCOR
and the results of its  operations.  The results of operations for the three and
nine month periods ended  September 30, 2000 are not  necessarily  indicative of
the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2000.

Certain  reclassifications  of prior year  amounts  have been made to conform to
current year presentation.

NOTE B   Income Taxes

EMCOR files a  consolidated  federal  income tax return  including  all its U.S.
subsidiaries.  At September 30, 2000, EMCOR had net operating loss carryforwards
("NOLs") for U.S.  income tax purposes of  approximately  $72.0  million.  These
NOL's expire in the years 2007 through  2018.  The NOLs are subject to review by
the Internal  Revenue  Service.  Future  changes in the  ownership of EMCOR,  as
defined by Section 382 of the Internal  Revenue Code,  could limit the amount of
EMCOR's NOLs available for use in any one year.

As a result of the adoption of  Fresh-Start  Accounting,  the tax benefit of any
net operating loss carryforwards or net deductible  temporary  differences which
existed as of the date of EMCOR's  emergence  from  Chapter 11 in December  1994
will result in a charge to the tax provision (provision in lieu of income taxes)
and be allocated to capital surplus.

EMCOR has provided a valuation  allowance as of September  30, 2000 for the full
amount of the tax benefit of its remaining  NOLs and other  deferred tax assets.
Income tax expense recorded for the three and nine month periods ended September
30, 2000 and 1999 represent a provision primarily for federal, foreign and state
and local  income  taxes.  EMCOR's  utilization  of NOLs and other  deferred tax
assets  for the  three  month  periods  ended  September  30,  2000  and 1999 of
approximately  $7.1 million and $6.4 million have been added to capital surplus,
respectively.  EMCOR's utilization of NOLs and other deferred tax assets for the
nine month periods  ended  September  30, 2000 and 1999 of  approximately  $15.4
million and $10.3 million has been added to capital surplus, respectively.

For the three month periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, 12,913 and 18,000
options, respectively,  were excluded from the calculation of Diluted EPS as the
inclusion of these  options  would be  antidilutive.  For the nine month periods
ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 27,082 and 49,324 options, respectively,  were
excluded from the  calculation  of Diluted EPS as the inclusion of these options

NOTE D   New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 1998,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board issued  Statement of
Financial Accounting  Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative  Instruments
and Hedging  Activities"  ("SFAS  133").  SFAS 133, as amended by  Statement  of
Financial Accounting  Standards No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative  Instruments
and Hedging  Activities-Deferral  of the  Effective  Date of SFAS No. 133",  and
Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 138  "Accounting  for Certain
Derivative  Instruments and Hedging  Activities"  ("SFAS 138"),  establishes for
fiscal  quarters of fiscal years  beginning  after June 15, 2000  accounting and
reporting standards requiring derivative instruments, as defined, to be measured
in the financial  statements at fair value.  SFAS 133 also requires that changes
in the derivative  instruments'  fair value be recognized  currently in earnings
unless certain accounting criteria are met. EMCOR does not expect the provisions
of SFAS 133 to have a significant  effect on the financial  condition or results
of operations of EMCOR.

EMCOR had a $110.8  million or a 13.7% increase in revenues for the three months
ended  September 30, 2000 compared to the same period in 1999. The increase over
the prior year period was primarily  attributable to revenue growth from EMCOR's
operations  (excluding  revenues  attributable  to a majority  owned  facilities
services venture known as Building  Technology  Engineers of North America,  LLC
("BTENA")  organized this year) of $97.1 million,  or a 12.0% increase.  Many of
EMCOR's  subsidiaries  experienced  a growth  in  revenues,  particularly  those
located in New York City,  Houston,  Washington,  D.C.,  California,  Denver and
Connecticut,  due to an increased  level of market  activity.  This  increase in
revenues was offset  partially by decreases in revenues from its United  Kingdom
and Las Vegas markets and the Poole & Kent  subsidiaries  due primarily to their
completion of large projects.

EMCOR had a $482.7  million or a 23.6%  increase in revenues for the nine months
ended  September 30, 2000 compared to the same period in 1999. The increase over
the prior year period was primarily  attributable to revenue growth from EMCOR's
operations (excluding BTENA and 1999 acquisitions) of $353.3 million, or a 17.3%
increase,  and to the impact of BTENA and 1999  acquisitions  which  contributed
approximately an aggregate of $129.4 million of revenues during 2000.

Revenues of electrical  construction and facilities  services business units for
the three months ended September 30, 2000 were $380.8 million compared to $257.0
million for the three months ended  September  30, 1999.  The $123.8  million or
48.2%  increase in the revenues for the three  months ended  September  30, 2000
compared to the same period in 1999 was  attributable  to  continuing  favorable
market  conditions  across  the  United  States  particularly  in New York City,
California and  Washington,  D.C..  Revenues for the nine months ended September
30, 2000 were  $987.8  million  compared  to $708.5  million for the nine months
ended  September 30, 1999.  The $279.2 million or 39.4% increase in revenues for
the nine months ended September 30, 2000 compared to the same period in 1999 was
attributable to the favorable market conditions  previously  identified,  offset
partially by the decrease in construction activity in the Las Vegas market.

Revenues of mechanical  construction and facilities  services business units for
the three months ended September 30, 2000 were $327.6 million compared to $321.0
million for the three months ended  September 30, 1999. The $6.6 million or 2.1%
increase in revenues was attributable to favorable market conditions in New York
City,  Houston,  Connecticut and California  offset by decreases in revenues for
the Poole & Kent  subsidiaries and in Las Vegas due to the recent  completion of
large  projects.  Revenues  for the nine months  ended  September  30, 2000 were
$913.6 million  compared to $741.2  million for the nine months ended  September
30, 1999. The $172.4 million or 23.3% increase in revenues was  attributable  to
revenue growth from EMCOR's  operations  (excluding 1999  acquisitions) of $94.9
million,  or a 12.8%  increase,  and to the  impact of 1999  acquisitions  which
contributed approximately $77.5 million of additional revenues during 2000.

Other  United  States  services  revenues of $47.4  million for the three months
ended  September  30, 2000,  which include those  operations  which  principally
provide consulting and maintenance services, increased by $14.9 million compared
to the same  three  months in 1999.  The  increase  in  revenues  was  primarily
attributable  to revenues from BTENA and 1999 acquired  companies.  Other United
States  services  revenues of $122.5 million for the nine months ended September
30, 2000 increased by $59.3 million  compared to $63.2 million for the same nine
months in 1999.  This  increase was  primarily  attributable  to an aggregate of
$51.9  million of revenues from BTENA and 1999  acquired  companies,  as well as
increases attributable to the balance of EMCOR's other United States operations.

Revenues of Canada  construction  and  facilities  services for the three months
ended  September 30, 2000 were $56.4  million  compared to $57.8 million for the
three  months  ended  September  30,  1999.  Revenues  for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 were $183.8  million  compared to $132.6 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999; this $51.2 million increase in revenues for the
year to date  period  was  primarily  attributable  to the  increased  level  of
activities in Western Canada.

Revenues of United Kingdom  construction and facilities  services business units
for the three months ended  September 30, 2000 were $109.3  million  compared to
$142.3 million for the three months ended  September 30, 1999.  Revenues for the
nine months  ended  September  30, 2000 were $322.0  million  compared to $401.0
million for the nine  months  ended  September  30,  1999.  The  decreases  were
principally  attributable to the  substantial  completion in 1999 of the Jubilee
Line project in London.

Other  International  construction and facilities  services primarily consist of
EMCOR's operations in the Middle East. Substantially all of the current projects
in this operating segment are being performed by joint ventures.  The results of
these operations are accounted for under the equity method of accounting because
EMCOR has less than majority ownership in these joint ventures, and accordingly,
no revenue  attributable to such joint ventures was recorded.  In 1999,  several
projects in which EMCOR had majority  ownership were completed.  EMCOR continues
to pursue new business  selectively in these markets;  however, the availability
of opportunities  has been  significantly  reduced as a result of local economic
factors.

Gross profit (revenues less cost of sales) increased $10.5 million for the three
months ended  September 30, 2000 to $88.5 million  compared to $78.0 million for
the three months ended  September 30, 1999.  As a percentage of revenues,  gross
profit was 9.6% for each of the three months ended  September 30, 2000 and 1999.
The dollar  increase  in gross  profit was due to an  increase  in  revenues  of
EMCOR's  operations,  as well as  incremental  gross  profit from BTENA and 1999
acquisitions, partially offset by losses on jobs in the South and North Carolina
markets  undertaken by its Poole & Kent  subsidiaries  prior to  acquisition  by
EMCOR.

Gross profit  increased  $49.8  million for the nine months ended  September 30,
2000 to $246.4  million  compared to $196.6  million  for the nine months  ended
September 30, 1999. As a percentage of revenues,  gross profit increased to 9.7%
from 9.6% for the nine months ended  September 30, 2000 and 1999,  respectively.
The dollar  increase  in gross  profit was due to the  increase  in  revenues of
EMCOR's  operations as well as incremental gross profit from BTENA and companies
acquired in 1999.  The increase in gross profit as a percentage  of revenues was
primarily a result of an increase  in gross  profits on projects  due to overall
favorable market conditions, partially offset by losses on jobs in the South and
North  Carolina  markets  undertaken by its Poole & Kent  subsidiaries  prior to
acquisition by EMCOR.

Selling,  general  and  administrative  expenses  for  the  three  months  ended

September  30, 2000,  compared to 7.4% for the three months ended  September 30,
1999.  For the nine  months  ended  September  30,  2000  selling,  general  and
administrative  expenses  increased $33.3 million compared to the same period in
the prior year. Selling,  general and administrative expenses as a percentage of
revenues was 7.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, compared to 7.9%
for the nine months ended  September 30, 1999. For both the three and nine month
periods ended  September 30, 2000, the dollar  increase in selling,  general and
administrative  expenses  compared  to the prior  year  comparable  periods  was
attributable to an increase in revenues and corresponding  increases in variable
selling,  general and administrative  expenses required to support the increased
revenue  base,  incremental  fixed  costs  to  support  the  current  growth  in
operations,  plus selling,  general and administrative  expenses associated with
BTENA and 1999 acquisitions. The decrease in selling, general and administrative
expenses as a percentage  of revenues was  primarily  due to the  leveraging  of
fixed costs over increased revenues.

EMCOR had operating income of $22.5 million for the three months ended September
30, 2000  compared with  operating  income of $18.2 million for the three months
ended  September  30,  1999.  The increase of $4.4 million or 24.1% in operating
income for the three  months  ended  September  30, 2000 as compared to the same
period in 1999 was due to  increased  revenues  and gross  profits  from EMCOR's
operations excluding BTENA and 1999 acquired companies,  as well as revenues and
incremental  operating income attributable to BTENA and 1999 acquired companies.
Operating  income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was $51.6 million
compared to $35.2  million for the same  period in 1999.  The  increase of $16.4
million or 46.7% was due to increased  revenues  and gross  profits from EMCOR's
operations excluding BTENA and 1999 acquired companies,  as well as revenues and
incremental operating income attributable to businesses acquired in 1999 and the
impact of BTENA.

United States electrical  construction and facilities  services operating income
for the three  months  ended  September  30,  2000 was $17.1  million or 4.5% of
revenues,  compared to $10.7  million or 4.1% of revenues  for the three  months
ended September 30, 1999. The $6.4 million  increase in operating income for the
three months ended  September  30, 2000  compared to the same period in 1999 was
primarily  attributable to the continuing favorable market conditions across the
United States,  particularly in New York City,  California and Washington,  D.C.
Operating  income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was $38.7 million
or 3.9% of revenues,  compared to $25.4 million or 3.6% of revenues for the nine
months ended  September 30, 1999. The increase in operating  income,  similar to
the three months  ended  September  30, 2000,  was  attributable  to  continuing
favorable  market  conditions,  particularly  in New York City,  California  and
Washington, D.C.

United States mechanical  construction and facilities  services operating income
for the three  months  ended  September  30,  2000 was $7.7  million  or 2.4% of
revenues,  compared to $11.6  million or 3.6% of revenues  for the three  months
ended September 30, 1999.  Operating  income for the nine months ended September
30, 2000 was $23.9  million or 2.6% of  revenues,  compared to $25.4  million or
3.4% of revenues for the nine months ended  September 30, 1999.  The decrease in
operating  income for both the three and nine month periods ended  September 30,
2000 compared to the same periods in 1999 was primarily  attributable  to losses
on jobs in the South and North Carolina  markets  undertaken by its Poole & Kent
subsidiaries prior to acquisition by EMCOR.

Other United States services operating losses were $0.9 million and $0.6 million
for the three months ended  September 30, 2000 and 1999,  respectively.  For the
nine months  ended  September  30,  2000,  operating  losses  were $2.6  million
compared to $3.2 million for the nine months  ended  September  30, 1999.  These
operating  losses  were  primarily  attributable  to costs  associated  with the
continued  development of EMCOR's consulting operations and maintenance services
activities.

Canada  construction and facilities  services  operating income was $1.4 million
compared to $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.  Operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and
1999 was $4.4 million and $2.4 million,  respectively. The increase in operating
income  in the 2000  three  and  nine  month  periods  was  primarily  due to an
increased level of activities in Western Canada.

United Kingdom  construction  and facilities  services  operating income for the
three months ended September 30, 2000 was $1.9 million  compared to $0.8 million
for the three months ended  September  30, 1999.  Operating  income for the nine
months ended  September 30, 2000 was $1.8 million  compared to an operating loss
of $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. The improvement in
operating  income for the three and nine month periods ended  September 30, 2000
compared  to  the  same  periods  in  1999  was  primarily  attributable  to the
commencement  of new projects  that have resulted in higher gross profits in the
2000 periods,  as compared to projects that resulted in operating losses in 1999
that have since been completed.

Substantially   all  of  the  current   projects  in  the  Other   International
construction and facilities  services  operating  segment are being performed by
joint ventures. The operating income of these operations are accounted for under
the equity method of accounting  because EMCOR has less than majority  ownership
in these joint ventures.  In 1999,  several projects in which EMCOR had majority
ownership were completed.  EMCOR continues to pursue new business selectively in
these markets; however, the availability of opportunities has been significantly
reduced as a result of local economic factors.

General  corporate  expenses for the three months ended  September 30, 2000 were
$5.0 million  compared to $5.1 million for the three months ended  September 30,
1999. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999,  general  corporate
expenses were $15.2  million and $13.3  million,  respectively.  The increase in
general corporate  expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was due
to increased variable overhead costs associated with EMCOR's increased revenues,
as well as incremental fixed costs to support current growth in operations.

Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 was $2.5
million and $2.6 million,  respectively. For the nine months ended September 30,
2000 and 1999, interest expense was $7.4 million and $7.6 million, respectively.
Interest  income for the three months ended  September 30, 2000 was $0.4 million
compared to $0.3 million for the three months ended  September 30, 1999. For the
nine months ended September 30, 2000,  interest income was $1.4 million compared
to $1.3 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.

The income tax provision increased by $1.9 million to $9.0 million for the three
months ended  September  30, 2000,  as compared to the same period in 1999.  The
income tax  provision  increased by $7.3  million to $20.1  million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 as compared to $12.8 million for the nine months
ended  September 30, 1999. The increase in provision for both the three and nine
months periods was primarily due to increased  income before taxes for the three
and nine months ended  September  30, 2000 compared with the same periods in the
prior  year.  A portion of the  liability  for income  taxes,  $15.4  million at
September 30, 2000 and $10.3 million at September 30, 1999,  was not payable due
to the  utilization of NOL's and was recorded as an increase in capital  surplus
for both years.

EMCOR's  backlog  was  approximately  $1.9  billion at  September  30,  2000 and
approximately  $1.8 billion at December 31, 1999.  Between December 31, 1999 and
September  30,  2000,  EMCOR's  backlog in the United  States  increased by $0.2
billion,  its backlog in the United  Kingdom  decreased by $0.06 billion and its
backlog in Canada  decreased  by $0.04  billion.  The decrease in the Canada and
United  Kingdom  backlogs was due to work  performed on projects  awarded in the
fourth  quarter of 1999 in Canada,  and the completion of several large projects
in the United Kingdom offsetting new contract awards. The increase in the United
States backlog was due to continued  favorable economic  conditions and to $0.05
billion of backlog  attributable  to BTENA.  The  September 30, 1999 backlog was
$1.8 billion.

The following table presents EMCOR's net cash provided by operating  activities,

<PAGE>


EMCOR's  consolidated cash balance increased by approximately $21.4 million from
$58.6 million at December 31, 1999 to $79.9  million at September 30, 2000.  Net
cash provided by operating  activities  for the nine months ended  September 30,
2000 of $41.5  million was a $29.0  million  increase  from the same period last
year.  The increase in net cash provided by operating  activities  was primarily
attributable  to higher net income and  non-cash  expenses  partially  offset by
increased  changes in  operating  assets and  liabilities  due to an increase in
business  activity.  Net cash used in investing  activities of $18.1 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 2000 decreased by $40.1 million  compared to
the $58.2  million of cash used in investing  activities in the same period last
year. The decrease in net cash used in investing activities was due primarily to
the  acquisition of businesses in the nine months ended September 30, 1999 which
utilized  $55.8 million in cash.  Net cash used in financing  activities of $2.1
million was a decrease of $2.6 million from $0.5 million of net cash provided by
financing  activities for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. The decrease
in net cash provided by financing  activities was primarily  attributable  to no
borrowing under working  capital credit lines  outstanding at September 30, 2000
compared to $10.0  million of borrowings  outstanding  at September 30, 1999; to
lower net payments for long-term debt and capital lease  obligations in the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 of $2.2 million compared to net payments of $6.8
million in the nine months  ended  September  30,  1999;  and the  purchases  of
treasury  stock of $2.9  million in the nine  months  ended  September  30, 1999
compared to no  purchases of treasury  stock in the nine months ended  September
30, 2000.

As of September 30, 2000,  EMCOR's total borrowing  capacity under its revolving
credit facility was $150.0  million.  EMCOR had  approximately  $10.5 million of
letters of credit  outstanding  as of that date.  There were no revolving  loans
outstanding  as of September  30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 under the revolving
credit facility.

EMCOR believes that current cash balances and borrowing capacity available under
lines of credit,  combined with cash expected to be generated  from  operations,
will be sufficient to provide short-term and foreseeable long-term liquidity and
meet expected capital expenditure requirements.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     In  February  1995,  as part of an  investigation  by the New  York  County
District  Attorney's  office into the business  affairs of a general  contractor
that did business with EMCOR's subsidiary,  Forest Electric Corp. ("Forest"),  a
search  warrant was executed at Forest's  executive  offices.  On July 12, 2000,
Forest was served with a Subpoena  Duces Tecum to produce  certain  documents as
part of a  broader  investigation  by the New York  County  District  Attorney's
office  into  illegal  business  practices  in the New  York  City  construction
industry.  Forest has been informed by the New York County  District  Attorney's
office that it and  certain of its  officers  are targets of the  investigation.
Forest intends to produce documents in response to the subpoena and to cooperate
fully with the District Attorney's office investigation as it proceeds.

     On July 31,  1998,  a former  employee  of a  subsidiary  of EMCOR  filed a
class-action  complaint on behalf of the  participants  in two employee  benefit
plans  sponsored  by EMCOR  against  EMCOR and other  defendants  for  breach of
fiduciary  duty under the Employee  Retirement  Income  Security Act. All of the
claims relate to alleged acts or omissions  which occurred during the period May
1, 1991 to December  1994.  The principal  allegations of the complaint are that
the defendants  breached their fiduciary duties by causing the plans to purchase
and hold  stock of EMCOR when it was known as JWP INC.  and when the  defendants
knew or should have known it was  imprudent to do so. The plaintiff has not made
claim for a specific dollar amount of damages but generally seeks to recover for
the  benefit  plans the loss in the value of JWP stock held by the plans.  EMCOR
and the  other  defendants  intend to  vigorously  defend  the  case.  Insurance
coverage may be  applicable  under an EMCOR pension  trust  liability  insurance
policy  for  EMCOR and  those  present  and  former  employees  of EMCOR who are
defendants in the action.

     Substantial  settlements or damage judgements  against EMCOR arising out of
these  matters  could  have a  material  adverse  effect  on  EMCOR's  business,
operating results and financial condition.

     In addition to the above,  EMCOR is involved in other legal proceedings and
claims,  asserted by and against EMCOR, which have arisen in the ordinary course
of business.  EMCOR  believes it has a number of valid defenses to these actions
and EMCOR  intends  to  vigorously  defend or assert  these  claims and does not
believe that a significant liability will result.  However, EMCOR cannot predict
the  outcome  thereof  or the  impact  that an  adverse  result  of the  matters
discussed  above  will  have upon  EMCOR's  financial  position  or  results  of
operations.
