ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
The statements contained herein and other information contained in this
report may be based, in part, on management's estimates, projections, plans and
judgments. As such, these are forward looking statements and involve a number of
risks and uncertainties. A number of factors, which could cause actual results
to differ materially include: general economic conditions, competitive market
influences, technology changes, and other influences beyond the control of
management.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONSOLIDATED AIII
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED
MARCH 31, 1998. Consolidated net income for the three-month period ended
March 31, 1999 was $ 41,275 as compared to a loss during the three months
ended March 31, 1998 of $175,927. The factors contributing to the
consolidated net income for the period are discussed below:
The net sales for the three months ended March 31, 1999, were
$4,214,020 as compared to $517,756 for March 31, 1998, such 714% increase
being primarily attributable to the inclusion of the sales of Northeastern
Plastics, Inc. ("NPI"), Modern Film Effects, Inc. dba Cinema Research Company
("CRC"), Marald, and TRE. NPI had sales for the three-month period of
$1,545,390. CRC revenues for the three month period ended March 31,1999 were
$1,157,317 and Marald had revenues of $472,866. Har-Whit sales for the
three months ended March 31, 1999 were $438,447 as compared to $517,756 for
the three months ended March 31, 1998. TREE had sales of $600,000 for the
three-month period ended March 31, 1999, while it had no sales activity for
the comparable three months of 1998. Brenham Oil & Gas, Inc. ("Brenham")
reported royalty income of $4,308 in the current quarter compared to $9,686
during the first three months of 1998. The activity of Acqueren during the
three months ended March 31, 1999, consisted of investments and trading in
various investment and available for sale equity securities; such activity
resulting in unrealized investment losses of $42,493. Cost of sales as a
percentage of net sales for the three months ended March 31, 1999 was
approximately 69.6%,with gross margins of 30.4%, as compared to approximately
70.1% cost of sales and 29.9% gross margins during the three-month period
ended March 31, 1998. The change is the result of the inclusion of NPI, which
sustained gross margins averaging 16.9% during this quarter. CRC posted
margins averaging 20.3% during the three months ended March 31, 1999, while
Har-Whit sustained 30.4% margins in 1999 as compared to 29.9% margins in 1998
TREE experienced margin of 83.3% on its sale of real estate rights, as the
$100,000 cost associated with the contract constitutes 16.7% of sales.
Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1999 were
$1,191,505 as compared to $332,281 for the three months ended March 31, 1998.
This increase is primarily the result of the acquisitions of NPI, which had
operating expenses of $238,392 during the current quarter and CRC, which
incurred operating expenses of $453,377 including certain costs of relocating
the digital operations to the optical facility. Marald incurred $81,815 in
operating expenses during the three months ended March 31, 1999. TREE
incurred operating expenses, primarily property taxes, of $14,899. AIII
incurred expenses at the corporate level of $246,029, including $72,604 of
legal and
<PAGE>
professional fees and $25,000 amortization of goodwill.
Other income (expense) amounted to $ (46,775) for the three-month
period ended March 31, 1999 including interest income of $16,785, Acqueren's
unrealized investment losses of $42,493, other income of $66,206, and $87,273
of interest expense. This compares to total other income (expense) for the
three-month period ended March 31, 1998 of $1,684, which consisted of
interest expense of $11,422 and other income of $13,091. The increased
interest expense for 1999 results from the bank debt attributable to acquired
companies and the financing cost associated with equipment leases of CRC.
NET INCOME AND COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
Consolidated net income for the three-month period ended March 31,
1999 was $41,275 as compared to the net loss of $175,927 sustained in the
three months ended March 31, 1998. During the three months ended March 31,
1999, TREE had net income of $489,669, NPI posted net income of $23,286,
Har-Whit had a net loss of $15,978, CRC posted a loss of $238,582, and
Brenham had a net loss of $153. AIII sustained a loss of $246,067 at the
corporate level. Acqueren experienced a loss of $37,984. Unrealized gains,
amounting to $968,828, on available-for-sale investments in equity securities
are included as a component of stockholders equity. Such unrealized
investment gains are included as a component of comprehensive income, which
totals $1,029,067 for the three months ended March 31, 1999. Of the prior
year loss, $103,748 was incurred by AIII at the corporate level, with the
remainder attributable to the Har-Whit operations during the first three
months of 1998.
Unrealized gains on available for sale investments in equity
securities of $968,828 are included as a component of stockholders equity.
Such unrealized investment gains are included as a component of comprehensive
income, which totaled $1,029,067 for the three-month period ended March 31,
1999. No investment activities gave rise to unrealized gains or losses in the
comparable quarter in 1998.

$17,478,737 at December 31, 1998, an increase of 13%. The increase is

the three-month-period ended March 31, 1998, the Company used $50,143 in
operations, used $44,108 for investing activities, and provided $169,496
through financing activities. The change reflects increased activities of the

and there can be no assurance that any such financing will be available or,
if it is available, that it will be available on acceptable terms. If

$977,819. CRC had $127,168 net cash provided from operations, $74,000 net
cash used in investing activities, and $48,375 net cash provided by financing
activities.
CRC has arranged a line of credit, guaranteed by the parent, AIII,
to provide the financing necessary to support its operations and provide the
investment necessary to implement the consolidation of digital operations
into the optical facility and to meet the ongoing cash requirements of CRC.
Management believes CRC has achieved significant economies and savings by
relocating the operations of CRC's digital operations into the building
occupied by the optical operations. These changes reduced rent expenditures
and eliminated some duplicate functions such as administrative support,
equipment costs, and supplies. Management believes that better co-ordination
of projects involving both optical and digital work has also resulted. CRC
management identified the need to invest in improvements to its building
related to the relocation as well as in earthquake related work. Expenditures
for upgrading equipment may be made to maintain the ability to provide
quality services.
The Company has an option to acquire its building and is currently
negotiating to obtain a $2 million financing through the city of Los Angeles,
such financing to have favorable interest rates and to be used to acquire and
renovate the building, perform necessary earthquake related improvements,
upgrade computer systems, and other production equipment. There is no
assurance that such financing will be granted, and if such financing is not
available, CRC will be required to seek alternative financing. At the present
time, CRC has no commitments for such financing, and there is no assurance
that it will be able to arrange any other financing at favorable rates, if at
all.
In September 1998, CRC borrowed $1,000,000 in the form of a
promissory note from a financial institution at the institution's prime rate,
which matures in May, 2000. That borrowing was used to retire bank and other
indebtedness which existed prior to the acquisition by AIII. AIII has
committed to funding the operations of CRC until December 31, 1999.
INDUSTRIAL/ COMMERCIAL SEGMENT
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS --NPI
For the three months ended March 31, 1999 NPI had net sales of
$1,545,390, operating expenses were $238,392, and operating income of
$22,931. Other income of $355 includes net interest expense of $4,563 and
other income of $4,918. Net income for the three months was $23,286.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES NPI
NPI financed its operations during the three months ended March 31,
1999 through internally generated cash flows. For the three months ended
March 31, 1999, NPI used $143,171 in operating activities, and used $4,105 in
investing activities. Total assets of NPI at March 31, 1999, were
$1,775,839, total liabilities were $872,177, and current working capital was
$1,063,518.
NPI has an outstanding note payable to a former stockholder of
Acqueren of $293,381 at an interest rate of 6% per annum, with a payment of
$100,000 due in August 1999 and 2000 and the remainder due in August 2001.
The Company is involved in litigation through the suit filed against the
former principal stockholder of Acqueren. The substance of that suit related
to representations made prior to the acquisition and the outcome of such
litigation could reduce the amount payable on the note to such former
stockholder; although there is no assurance that the Company will prevail in
its litigation.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -HAR-WHIT
Har-Whit sales for the three months ended March 31, 1999 amounted to
$438,447, a decrease of 15.3 %
<PAGE>
compared to the $517,756 sustained in 1998. The decrease in sales is
attributable to increased competitive pressures in bidding for fabrication
work due to the downturn in oil and gas related work. Little marketing and
advertising has been done to promote sales of barbecue pits as "word of
mouth" advertising has been the principal marketing approach. Management
believes an opportunity exists to create significantly greater demand through
expanded marketing and promotion, although at this time Har-Whit has not
developed a formal marketing plan.
Har-Whit cost of sales amounted to $305,047, 69.6% of sales. Margins
of $133,400 represent 30.4% of sales during the three months ended March 31,
1999. During the three-month period ended March 31, 1998, Har-Whit cost of
sales of $363,086 constituted 70.1%, and margins of $154,670 were 29.9% of
sales. Operating expenses of $135,517, comprised 30.9% of sales during the
three-month period ended March 31, 1999 as compared to $202,669, 39.1%, in
the comparable period in 1998. The operating loss of $2,117 for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 compares to an operating loss of $47,999 during
the three-month period ended March 31, 1998. Interest expense in the three
months ended March 31, 1999 of $16,111 compares to $11,422 in the comparable
period in 1998.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - HAR-WHIT
Har-Whit has arranged a $150,000 line of credit with a financial
institution secured by its accounts receivable and parent guarantee. The
interest rate for the line of credit is at prime and the note matures in May,
2000.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - MARALD
During the three-month period ended March 31, 1999, Marald had sales
of $472,866, cost of sales of $322,996, comprising 68.3% of sales, and
margins of $149,870 represent 31.7% of sales. Operating expenses of $81,815
were 17.3% of sales. Net income of $67,084 represented 14.2% of sales.
Marald has launched an enhanced marketing and dealer support program to
capture market share and introduce additional products through the dealer
network.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - MARALD
Marald has arranged a $75,000 working capital line of credit, with
interest at prime, secured by its inventory and accounts receivable and
parent guarantee. Increasing sales levels may require additional working
capital financing.
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer systems that use two
digits rather than four to define the applicable year, which may prevent such
systems from accurately processing dates ending in the year 2000 and after.
This could result in system failures or in miscalculations causing disruption
of operations, including, but not limited to, an inability to process
transactions, to send and receive electronic data, or to engage in routine
business activities and operations.
Management has spoken to all management personnel at each of its
subsidiaries regarding their company's reliance on computer systems. Based
upon these discussions, management believes that the Company does not have
significant exposure to the Year 2000 issue. The majority of the
subsidiaries' operations do not rely on computer operations for conducting
the significant parts of its business, and accordingly, the Company does not
believe that its products and services involve any material Year 2000 risks.
CRC's optical operations do not involve the use of computerized equipment for
the material portion of its operations, and its digital equipment has been
updated with year 2000 compliant software. In the second quarter of 1999, the
Company will establish a formal Year 2000 task force to develop and implement
a Year 2000 readiness program.
In addition to reviewing its internal systems, the Company plans to
have communications with its significant customers and vendors concerning
Year 2000 compliance, including electronic commerce. There can be no
assurance that the systems of other companies that interact with the Company
will be sufficiently Year 2000 compliant so as to avoid an adverse impact on
the Company's operations, financial condition and results of operations.
<PAGE>
The Company does not presently anticipate that the costs to address
the Year 2000 issue will have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial condition, results of operations or liquidity due to the
aforementioned factors. However, management has not performed a formal
estimate of the costs for conversion of systems necessitated by the Year 2000
issue.
The Company presently anticipates that it will complete its Year
2000 assessment and any necessary remediations by December 31, 1999. However,
there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in implementing
its Year 2000 remediation plan according to the anticipated schedule. In
addition, the Company may be adversely affected by the inability of other
companies whose systems interact with the Company to become Year 2000
compliant and by potential interruptions of utility, communication or
transportation systems as a result of Year 2000 issues.
Although the Company expects its internal systems to be Year 2000
compliant as described above, the Company intends to prepare a contingency
plan that will specify what it plans to do if it or important external
companies are not Year 2000 compliant in a timely manner. The Company expects
to prepare its contingency plan during 1999.
