PINNACLE GLOBAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Through a series of transactions on January 29, 1999, the shareholders of
TEI, Inc. ("TEI") exchanged all common shares of TEI for 3,562,753 common
shares of Pinnacle Global Group, Inc. (the "Company"), the newly formed public
holding company. The Company simultaneously completed the acquisition of three
financial services firms: Harris Webb & Garrison, Inc. ("HWG"), Pinnacle
Management & Trust Company ("PMT") and Spires Financial, L.P. ("Spires"), by
exchanging 3,562,500 of its common shares (slightly less than 50% of outstanding
common shares) in exchange for all of the ownership interests of the three
financial services firms. TEI is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
As a result of the acquisitions, and the discontinued operations described
below, the Company now provides a broad range of financial services including
institutional and retail brokerage, investment banking, merchant banking,
investment management, secondary market loan and loan servicing placement and
trust related services. Therefore, results of operations are not comparable to
the prior period.
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company
include the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
In management's opinion, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of
financial position at March 31, 1999, results of operations for the three months
ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, and cash flows for the three months ended March
31, 1999 and 1998. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
CASH EQUIVALENTS
Highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or
less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents.
SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE
Securities available for sale include marketable equity securities and debt
instruments with maturities greater than three months when purchased, are
recorded at cost, and are adjusted for unrealized holding gains and losses due
to market fluctuations. These unrealized gains or losses, net of tax, are
recorded as a separate component of other comprehensive income. Gains and losses
are recorded upon sale based upon the specific identification method.
SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS
Marketable securities owned, marketable securities sold not yet purchased,
and deposits held by clearing brokers and dealers are valued at market value.
Securities not readily marketable are valued at estimated fair value as
determined by management. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are included
in income.
Principal securities transactions are recorded on the trade date, as if
they had settled. Profit and loss arising from securities transactions entered
into for the account and risk of the Company are recorded on a trade date basis.
Customers' securities transactions are reported on a settlement date basis with
related commission income and expenses reported on a trade date basis.

PINNACLE GLOBAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
RESALE AND REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS AND SECURITIES LENDING AGREEMENTS
Purchases of securities under agreements to resell (reverse repurchase
agreements or reverse repos) and sales of securities under agreements to
repurchase (repurchase agreements or repos) are accounted for as collateralized
financings except where the Company does not have an agreement to sell (or
purchase) the same or substantially the same securities before maturity at a
fixed or determinable price. It is the policy of the Company to obtain
possession of collateral with a market value equal to or in excess of the
principal amount loaned under resale agreements. Collateral is valued daily, and
the Company may require counterparties to deposit additional collateral or
return collateral pledged when appropriate.
INVESTMENT BANKING
Investment banking revenues include fees earned from providing
merger-and-acquisition advice, financial advisory services and fees earned from
raising both debt and equity capital. Investment banking fees from acting as an
agent in securities offerings are recorded at the time the engagement is
completed and the income is reasonably determinable.
FIDUCIARY, CUSTODIAL AND ADVISORY FEES
Fiduciary, custodial and advisory fees are recorded monthly for most trust
accounts, based on a percentage of each individual's market value on the last
day of the month then ended.
MANAGEMENT'S ESTIMATES
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of consolidated assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of
the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. The Company's most significant estimates relate to estimated
recoverable amounts of assets and estimated liabilities of discontinued
operations and to the estimated fair value of securities not readily marketable.
It is reasonably possible that those estimates will change.
2. ACQUISITIONS
On January 29, 1999, the Company acquired HWG, PMT, and Spires. The former
owners of HWG, PMT, and Spires received consideration consisting of 3,562,500
shares of the Company's common stock which represents about 49.98% of the
outstanding common stock. The acquisitions were accounted for as purchases and,
accordingly, the financial information of HWG, PMT, and Spires is included in
the Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.
The purchase price of approximately $31 million exceeded the fair value of
identifiable net assets acquired by approximately $22 million, which is being
amortized on a straight-line basis over 25 years. The purchase price has been
allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon
preliminary estimated fair value. The actual allocation may be different from
the preliminary allocation due to refinements in the estimates of the fair
values of the net assets acquired.

The following summarized unaudited pro forma financial information assumes
the acquisitions had occurred on January 1, 1998:

These unaudited pro forma amounts are derived from the historical financial
information of the acquired businesses and reflect adjustments for amortization
of intangible assets and for income taxes. The unaudited pro forma financial
information does not necessarily represent results which would have occurred if
the acquisitions had taken place on the basis assumed above, nor are they
indicative of the results of future combined operations.
3. SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE

The Company clears certain of its proprietary and customer transactions
through other broker-dealers on a fully disclosed basis. The amount payable to
the clearing broker relates to the aforementioned transactions and is
collateralized by securities owned by the Company.
5. DEPOSITS HELD BY CLEARING BROKERS AND DEALERS
Under terms of clearing agreements, the Company is required to maintain a
certain level of cash or securities on deposit with clearing broker-dealers.
Should the clearing broker-dealers suffer a loss due to the failure of a
customer of the Company to complete a transaction, the Company is required to
indemnify the

clearing broker-dealer. The Company has funds invested in U.S. Treasury bills
and in a money market account on deposit with clearing broker-dealers to meet
this requirement.
6. SECURITIES OWNED AND SECURITIES SOLD NOT YET PURCHASED
Securities owned consisted of U.S. government and agency obligations,
corporate bonds, and commercial paper, and equity securities, including at March
31, 1999, $1,433,671 of not readily marketable securities valued at estimated
fair value as determined by management. Securities sold not yet purchased
consisted of U.S. government and agency obligations.
7. INCOME TAXES
The differences between the effective tax rate reflected in the income tax
provision for continuing operations and the statutory federal rate for the
period indicated are as follows:
THREE
MONTHS
ENDED
MARCH 31,
1999
----------
Tax computed using the statutory rate... $ 340,983
Nondeductible amortization of
goodwill.............................. 56,392
State income taxes...................... 30,087
Other................................... 10,028
----------
Total.............................. $ 437,490
==========
The effective tax rate for discontinued operations was approximately 34%
for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998.
8. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
The Board of Directors adopted a plan to discontinue the operations of
Energy Recovery Resources, Inc. ("ERRI") effective December 31, 1998.
Accordingly, the operating results of ERRI have been segregated from continuing
operations and reported as a discontinued operation in the statement of
operations. A provision for estimated loss on disposition of ERRI of $2,164,000
net of tax, consisting of a write down of goodwill and property and equipment,
was recorded during the fourth quarter of 1998.
Engineered Systems, Inc.'s ("ESI") operations were discontinued as of
December 31, 1995. The assets of ESI were disposed of on December 23, 1997, for
a $500,000 interest bearing note due in 2002. The purchaser has also agreed to
complete customer contracts that were in process at the time of the sale. In
accordance with the terms of the ESI asset disposition, the purchaser is
responsible for completing customers contracts that were in place at the date of
disposition. However, the Company remains liable for costs incurred by the
purchaser in excess of amounts recoverable from customers. Through the third
quarter of 1998, the Company believed, based in part from information provided
by the purchaser, that it had no additional liability with respect to the
contracts in process. Subsequent to December 31, 1998, the Company was notified
that a major customer cancelled its contract and that the other contracts in
process have incurred costs in excess of amounts recoverable from customers. As
a result during the fourth quarter of 1998 the Company recorded an additional
loss related to ESI of $1,344,000, net of tax. The Company currently estimates
that it will not incur any additional losses with respect to contracts to be
completed by the purchaser; however, the Company has experienced significant
changes in these estimates in the past and it is reasonably possible that such
changes could occur in future periods.

PINNACLE GLOBAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
9. CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
Financial investments that potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents,
securities available for sale, securities owned, and all receivables, including
those from discontinued operations. Risks and uncertainties associated with
financial investments include credit exposure, interest rate volatility,
regulatory changes, and changes in market values of equity securities. Future
changes in market trends and conditions may occur which could cause actual
results to differ materially from the estimates used in preparing the
accompanying financial statements.
The Company and its subsidiaries are engaged in various trading and
brokerage activities in which counterparties primarily include broker-dealers,
banks, and other financial institutions. In the event counterparties do not
fulfill their obligations, the Company may be exposed to risk. The risk of
default depends on the creditworthiness of the counterparty or issuer of the
instrument. It is the Company's policy to review, as necessary, the credit
standing of each counterparty.
10. COMMITMENTS
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into underwriting
commitments. Transactions relating to such underwriting commitments that were
open at March 31, 1999, and were subsequently settled, had no material effect on
the consolidated financial statements as of that date.
The Company and its subsidiaries have obligations under operating leases
with initial noncancelable terms in excess of one year. Aggregate annual rentals
for office space and computer and office equipment are as follows:
1999................................. $ 1,176,000
2000................................. 1,194,000
2001................................. 1,126,000
2002................................. 1,128,000
2003................................. 1,082,000
Thereafter........................... 80,000
11. LEGAL MATTERS
The Company is involved in litigation and routine claims from time to time.
Certain of the Company's litigation and claims are covered by insurance with a
maximum deductible of $50,000. In addition, the Company is contingently liable
for up to $600,000 for liabilities relating to services performed by Tanknology
Corporation International, Tanknology Canada (1988), Inc., and USTMAN
Industries, Inc. prior to October 25, 1996. The Company has fully provided for
that contingency as of March 31, 1999. The Company believes the ultimate outcome
of the litigation and claims will not have a material adverse effect to the
Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
12. NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS OF SUBSIDIARIES
HWG and Spires are subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission
Uniform Net Capital Rule (SEC rule 15c3-1), which requires the maintenance of
minimum net capital and requires that the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net
capital, both as defined, shall not exceed 15 to 1 (and the rule of the
"applicable" exchange also provides that equity capital may not be withdrawn
or cash dividends paid if the resulting net capital ratio would exceed 10 to 1).
PMT is required by the Texas Department of Banking to maintain minimum capital
of $1,500,000.

13. BORROWING ARRANGEMENT
The Company has a $300,000 unsecured line of credit agreement with a bank
expiring on December 1, 1999. Interest is charged at the bank's prime rate plus
.75%. At March 31, 1999, no amount is outstanding under the line of credit.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes thereto.
GENERAL
The Company is a holding company that provides diversified financial
services through its subsidiaries, including institutional and retail brokerage,
investment banking, merchant banking, secondary market loan and loan servicing
placement, trust related services and investment management. All of these
activities are highly competitive and are sensitive to many factors outside the
control of the Company, including those factors listed under "Factors Affecting
Forward-Looking Statements."
The Company closely monitors its operating environment to enable it to
respond promptly to market cycles. In addition, the Company seeks to lessen
earnings volatility by controlling expenses, increasing fee-based business and
developing new revenue sources. Nonetheless, operating results of any individual
period should not be considered representative of future performance.
On January 29, 1999, the Company completed the acquisitions of HWG, PMT and
Spires. In the acquisitions, just over 50% of the Company's outstanding shares
were issued to TEI's former shareholders in exchange for their TEI shares, and
slightly less than 50%, or 3,562,500 Company shares, were issued to the former
owners of the financial services firms. The acquisitions were accounted for as
purchases by the Company of each of the three financial services firms. The
following discussion of the results of operations includes the operations of
HWG, PMT and Spires since January 29, 1999.
In March 1999, the Company's new management decided to discontinue the
operations of TEI's liquid waste subsidiary effective December 31, 1998. These
operations, which are conducted primarily in Charlotte, North Carolina and
surrounding areas, involve the treating, recycling, and handling of wastewater,
waste oil and other non-hazardous fluid waters for owners and operators of under
and above ground storage tanks and other commercial and industrial waste
generators. Management believes the sale of the liquid waste business and
related Charlotte, North Carolina facility will be consummated within the next
nine months.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998
As explained in Note 2 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements for the Company, the financial results of the Company for the period
ended March 31, 1999 only include the results of operations of the financial
services firms (HWG, PMT and Spires) from the date of acquisition, or January
29, 1999. Therefore, the Company's results for the three months ended March 31,
1999 include two months of results from the financial services firms. Total
revenues increased $4.2 million to $4.6 million and total expenses increased
$3.1 million to $3.6 million, primarily as a result of the acquisitions,
described in Note 2 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Basic and diluted income (loss) per share from continuing operations increased
from a loss of $0.02 to income of $0.10 for the period.
Commissions revenue was $2.5 million and was comprised of commission
revenue from retail and institutional brokerage operations at Spires and HWG.
Principal transactions revenue was $0.7 million, consisting primarily of trading
gains net of hedging costs. Investment banking revenue was $0.6 million, and
consisted primarily of investment banking fees earned from advisory services and
private security offerings. Fiduciary, custodial and advisory fees revenue was
$0.3 million derived primarily from fee-based account business at PMT.
Employee compensation and benefits increased $2.0 million to $2.2 million
primarily due to additional employees in connection with the acquisitions as
described in Note 2 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the
Company. Employee compensation and benefits includes commissions paid to retail
and institutional brokers and investment bankers at HWG and Spires.
Communication and data processing costs were $0.2 million primarily related to
upgrades in technology and services including
12
<PAGE>
quotes and market data services. Occupancy costs were $0.2 million primarily due
to rent expense for office leases of the newly acquired financial services
firms.
The effective tax rate from continuing operations was 44% and 34% during
the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The increase in
the rate is primarily the result of non-deductible goodwill amortization.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company intends to satisfy a large portion of its funding needs with
its own capital resources, consisting largely of internally generated earnings
and liquid assets held by the Company prior to the acquisitions described in
Note 2 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. A large
portion of the Company's assets are highly liquid and short term in nature. The
Company's cash, cash equivalents and liquid assets, consisting of securities
available for sale, receivables from broker-dealers and clearing organizations,
deposits with clearing brokers and securities owned, represented about 77% of
the Company's total assets at March 31, 1999. At March 31, 1999, the Company had
approximately $29.9 million in cash and cash equivalents and securities
available for sale. The Company has $22.1 million in net intangible assets at
March 31, 1999 as a result of the acquisitions described in Note 2 of the Notes
to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Total assets increased $93.9
million from $35.0 million at December 31, 1999 to $128.9 million at March 31,
1999.
The Company's broker-dealer subsidiaries are subject to the requirements of
the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to liquidity, net capital
standards and the use of client funds and securities. PMT is also subject to
requirements of the Texas Banking Commissioner relating to, among other things,
liquidity, net capital standards and client bonding requirements. The Company
has historically operated in excess of the minimum net capital requirements.
YEAR 2000
The Company utilizes software and related information technologies that
will be affected by the date change in the year 2000. The year 2000 issue exists
because many computer systems and applications currently use two-digit date
fields to designate a year. When the century date change occurs, certain date-
sensitive systems may recognize the year 2000 as 1900, or not at all. This
inability to recognize or properly treat the year 2000 may result in a systems
failure or cause systems to process critical financial and operational
information incorrectly. Additionally, the Company relies on certain
non-information technology systems such as communications and building
operations systems that could also be affected by the date change. The failure
of these non-information technology systems could interrupt or shutdown business
operations for some period of time.
The Company's financial services subsidiaries are heavily dependent on
their own computer programs and systems, all of which may be affected by the
year 2000 problem. In addition, these subsidiaries have material relationships
with third parties related to the performance of the Company's financial
services who must also address the year 2000 problem. These third parties
include:
o trading counter parties
o financial intermediaries
o securities exchanges
o depositories
o software providers
o clearing agencies
o clearing houses
The operations of the Company's financial services may be adversely
affected if these third parties do not adequately address the year 2000 problem
and the Company is unable to make timely contingency plans. A year 2000 failure
at any of the Company's financial service subsidiaries or at their material
third parties could have a material adverse affect on the Company's financial
services businesses by impairing its ability to, among other things:
13
<PAGE>
o gather and process information vital to strategic decision making by
both the Company and its customers;
o perform pricing calculations;
o execute customer transactions;
o maintain accurate books and records and provide timely reports;
o access audit facilities for both the Company and its customers; and
o undertake risk management functions.
The Company also relies on many third-party vendors and suppliers for a
variety of goods and services necessary for most business, including operating
supplies, banking, telecommunications and utilities, such as water and
electricity. Many of the Company's operations would be adversely affected if
these supplies and services were curtailed as a result of a vendor's or
supplier's year 2000 problems.
The Company has contacted material third parties whose services or
functions, if curtailed, would have an adverse effect on the Company. However,
the Company to date does not have sufficient information to assess whether all
material third parties will be year 2000 compliant. The Company intends to make
further inquiry during the second quarter of 1999 with those material third
party relationships who did not respond by March 31, 1999.
The Company's broker-dealer subsidiaries, HWG and Spires, were required to
conduct complete reviews of the potential impact of year 2000 issues and report
their findings to the NASD and the SEC no later than August 31, 1998. HWG filed
its initial report with the NASD and SEC on August 6, 1998, and Spires filed its
initial report with both agencies on August 31, 1998, both reports were without
response from the NASD or the SEC. An updated report by both subsidiaries was
due and was filed on April 30, 1999.
The Company's trust subsidiary, PMT, was required to conduct a complete
review of the potential impact of the year 2000 issues and report its findings
to the Texas Banking Commissioner. PMT filed its initial report with the Bank
Commissioner on August 3, 1998.
The Company has developed the following multi-phase plan to resolve potential
Year 2000 problems relating to its information technology ("IT") systems at
all of its operations:
Phase I: Identify and evaluate all IT systems according to their
potential business impact.
Phase II: Identify IT systems that use date functions and assess them for
year 2000 functionality.
Phase III: Reprogram or replace equipment/systems, where necessary, to
ensure year 2000 readiness.
Phase IV: Test code modifications and material equipment/systems to ensure
successful operation in a post-1999 environment.
Phase V: Adoption of contingency plans in the case of potential year 2000
failures.
The Company has completed Phases I through III, and has partially completed
Phases IV and V of its plan at a cost of about $50,000 for modifying or
purchasing new software and for upgrading or purchasing new computer systems.
The Company expects to complete Phases IV and V of its plan by September 30,
1999 at an additional cost estimated not to exceed $200,000. Of these total year
2000 costs, about $30,000 are expected to be used for remediation, which
represents an estimated 10% of the Company's 1999 information technology budget.
Some of these costs may be recurring. The Company believes that cash on hand and
cash from operations will be sufficient to fund these costs. No information
technology projects have been deferred due to the Company's year 2000 efforts.
The Company has begun to develop a firm-wide contingency/recovery plan
aimed at ensuring the continuity of critical business functions before and after
December 31, 1999. As part of this process, the Company will develop reasonably
likely failure scenarios for its critical IT systems and material third-party
relationships. Once these scenarios are identified, the Company will develop
plans designed to reduce the impact to the Company, and provide methods of
returning to normal operations, if one or more of those
14
<PAGE>
scenarios occur. The Company cannot guarantee that it will be able to resolve
all of its year 2000 issues, and any critical unresolved year 2000 issues at the
Company or any of its material third parties could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's results of operations and financial condition. The
Company expects its contingency and recovery planning to be substantially
complete by September 30, 1999.
FACTORS AFFECTING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q includes "forward-looking statements"
within the meaning of section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
Section 21E of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the
"Acts"). These forward-looking statements may relate to such matters as
anticipated financial performance, future revenues or earnings, business
prospects, projected ventures, new products, anticipated market performance and
similar matters. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a
safe harbor for forward-looking statements. In order to comply with the terms of
the safe harbor, the Company cautions readers that a variety of factors could
cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from the anticipated
results or other expectations expressed in the Company's forward-looking
statements. These risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the
Company's control, include, but are not limited to (1) trading volume in the
securities markets; (2) volatility of the securities markets and interest rates;
(3) changes in regulatory requirements which could affect the demand for the
Company's services or the cost of doing business; (4) general economic
conditions, both domestic and foreign, especially in the regions where the
Company does business; (5) changes in the rate of inflation and related impact
on securities markets; (6) competition from existing financial institutions and
other new participants in the securities markets; (7) legal developments
affecting the litigation experience of the securities industry; (8) successful
implementation of technology solutions and (9) demand for the Company's
services. The Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or
revise any forward-looking statements.
The Company's discussion of the issues surrounding year 2000 contain
forward-looking statements as defined in the Acts. These forward-looking
statements could relate to, but are not limited to (1) the financial impact of
the year 2000 project; (2) the Company's estimated timetables for completion of
each phase of the project; (3) the Company's estimates of the availability of
vendor software upgrades and consulting services; (4) the readiness of
third-party service providers; and (5) contingency plans. The Company cautions
that many factors, including those outside of the control of the Company, could
cause actual results to be materially different than those anticipated and
expressed in the forward-looking statements.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS
MARKET RISKS
Market risk generally represents the risk of loss that may result from the
potential change in value of a financial instrument as a result of fluctuations
in interest rates, equity prices, and changes in credit ratings of the issuer.
The Company's exposure to market risk is directly related to its role as a
financial intermediary in customer-related transactions and to its proprietary
trading activities.
Interest rate risk is a consequence of maintaining inventory positions and
trading in interest-rate sensitive financial instruments. To facilitate its
proprietary trading in fixed income securities, the Company maintains an active
inventory of interest rate sensitive instruments. As of March 31, 1999 the
Company's fixed income trading inventory consisted principally of $44.1 million
in mortgage-related instruments with a weighted average life approximating two
years.
Market prices on the company's fixed income inventory fluctuate with
changes in interest rates, credit and liquidity spreads. The Company utilized
various hedging strategies to protect its market value exposure to changes in
interest rates. On March 31, 1999, management determined that the short sale of
$19.4 million of fifteen-year mortgage-backed securities best hedged its
inventory against changes in both interest rates.
The Company's fixed income activities also expose it to the risk of loss
related to changes in credit and liquidity spreads. Credit spread risk arises
from the potential that changes in an issuer's credit rating or credit
perception could effect the value of financial instruments. In management's
opinion, the Company's
15
<PAGE>
inventory at March 31, 1999, consisting entirely of high quality securities of
relatively short duration, exposes the Company to minimal risk associated with
changes in credit spreads.
Liquidity risk spread arises from the potential that changes in the
liquidity (ease of marketability) of a financial instrument or market sector
could effect the value of financial instruments. In management's opinion, the
Company's inventory at March 31, 1999, consisting entirely of high quality
securities of relatively short duration, exposes the Company to minimal risk
associated with changes in liquidity spreads.
The Company is exposed to equity price risk as a result of making markets
in equity securities. Equity price risk results changes in the level or
volatility of equity prices, which affect the value of equity securities or
instruments that derive their value from a particular stock, a basket of stocks
or a stock index.
Credit risk arises from the potential nonperformance by counterparties,
customers or debt security issuers. The Company is exposed to credit risk as a
trading counterparty to dealers and customers, as a holder of securities and as
a member of exchanges and clearing organizations.
The Company manages risk exposure through the involvement of various levels
of management. Position limits in trading and inventory accounts are well
established and monitored on an ongoing basis. Current and proposed
underwriting, banking and other commitments are subject to due diligence reviews
by senior management, as well as professionals in the appropriate business and
support units involved. Credit risk related to various financing activities is
reduced by the industry practice of obtaining and maintaining collateral. The
Company monitors its exposure to counterparty risk through the use of credit
exposure information, the monitoring of collateral values and the establishment
of credit limits.
The Company has performed an analysis of the Company's financial
instruments and has assessed the related risk and materiality in accordance with
the rules. Based on this analysis, in the opinion of management, the market risk
associated with the Company's financial instruments at March 31, 1999 will not
have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position
or operating results.
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
A derivative financial instrument represents a contractual agreement
between counterparties and has value that is derived from changes in the value
of some other underlying asset such as the price of another security, interest
rates (such as the Prime Rate, or LIBOR), indices (i.e. S&P 500), or the value
referenced in the contract.
The Company does not act as dealer, trader, or end-user of complex
derivative contracts such as swaps, collars and caps. However, the Company does
act as a dealer and trader of mortgage-derivative securities, collateralized
mortgage obligations (CMOs or REMICs). Mortgage-derivative securities
redistribute the risks associated with its underlying mortgage collateral, by
redirecting cash flows according to specific formulas or algorithms, to various
tranches or classes, designed to meet specific investor objectives.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
The Company is involved in litigation and routine claims from time to time.
Certain of the Company's litigation and claims are covered by insurance with a
maximum deductible of $50,000. In addition, the Company is contingently liable
for up to $600,000 for liabilities relating to services performed by Tanknology
Corporation International, Tanknology Canada (1988), Inc., and USTMAN
Industries, Inc. prior to October 25, 1996. The Company has fully provided for
that contingency as of March 31, 1999. The Company believes the ultimate outcome
of the litigation and claims will not have a material adverse effect to the
Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.
On January 28, 1999 TEI, Inc., predecessor issuer to the Company ("TEI"),
held a special meeting of shareholders for the following purposes:
(1) To vote on a proposal to approve a plan of merger (the "Merger
Plan"), whereby TEI merged into the Company, with the Company being the
surviving corporation. The Merger Plan provided for each share of
outstanding TEI common stock to be converted into .25 of a share of the
Company's common stock. The Merger Plan also provided for the election of a
12-member board of directors of the Company: six designated by TEI and six
by Harris Webb & Garrison, Inc. ("HWG"), Pinnacle Management & Trust
Company ("PMT") and Spires Financial, L.P. ("Spires"), the Company's
new executive management included former owners and management of HWG, PMT
and Spires, together with the former President and Chief Executive Officer
of TEI continuing as the Company's Vice-Chairman; and
(2) To vote on a proposal to approve the issuances of 3,562,500
shares of the Company's common stock to the direct and indirect owners of
HWG, PMT and Spires, in connection with the combination of the three
entities with TEI and the Company. As a result of the TEI merger and the
share issuances relating to the combination with HWG, PMT and Spires, the
former TEI shareholders own about 50.02% of the outstanding common stock of
the Company, and the former direct and indirect owners of HWG, PMT and
Spires own about 49.98% of the Company's outstanding common stock.
There were present at the meeting, in person and by proxy, the holders of
10,813,701 shares of the Company's common stock or approximately 75.8% of the
total number of issued and outstanding shares which were entitled to vote. The
results of the vote were as follows:
