SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION FORM 10-Q
NOTES TO THE QUARTERLY CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
QUARTER ENDED JULY 3, 1999
(Unaudited)
1. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements included herein are
prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q.
Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally
accompanying the annual financial statements have been omitted. The interim
financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Company's latest annual report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management,
the consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (none of
which were other than normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair
statement of the results for the interim periods.
2. The provision for income taxes is based upon the estimated effective tax
rate for the year.
3. Operating results for the first six months of 1999 are not necessarily
indicative of performance for the entire year. Historically, sales of
construction materials are higher in the second and third quarters.
Overall, sales of heating and air conditioning products have not shown
strong seasonal fluctuations in recent years although product mix has
historically yielded higher gross profit margins in the fourth quarter.
(See Note 12 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company's
1998 Annual Report.)
4. The following is a reconciliation of the calculation of basic and diluted
earnings per share (EPS) for the three and six months ended July 3, 1999
and July 4, 1998. Amounts in thousands except per share data.

Following the market close on June 7,1999, the Company effected a 1-for-50
reverse stock split immediately followed by a 100-for-1 forward stock
split. Shares and Earnings per share figures for all periods shown in the
table, reflect this split.
5. The following table presents information about reported segments for the
six month and three month periods ended July 3,1999 and July 4, 1998 along
with the items necessary to reconcile the segment information to the totals
reported in the financial statements (amounts in thousands).

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATION
FINANCIAL CONDITION (SEE PAGES 2 AND 4)
Operations for the first six months of 1999 used $2,477,000 in cash
compared to $257,000 in 1998. The increase in cash used is mainly
attributed to an increase in inventories reflecting the build up in the
heating and air conditioning segment related to abnormally low levels of
furnaces at 1998 year end.
The Company estimates that its short-term line of credit (of which
$4,500,000 was outstanding at July 3, 1999) will be adequate to meet its
cash requirements for the foreseeable future. Historically, the Company's
borrowings against the short-term line peak during the second quarter and
decline over the remainder of the year.

<PAGE>
OPERATIONS - COMPARISON OF QUARTER ENDED JULY 3, 1999 TO QUARTER ENDED
JULY 4, 1998 (SEE PAGE 3)
Consolidated net sales increased $2,318,000 (8%). The heating and air
conditioning segment accounted for the entire increase, $3,429,000
(27.6%), which can be attributed to favorable weather for the heating
products, strong sales of the fan coil product line and an improvement in
the evaporative cooler market from the prior year level. A $1,112,000
decline in the construction materials segment is attributable to
inclement weather during April. Construction activity along the Front
Range in southern Colorado, however, remains strong.
Consolidated cost of sales (exclusive of depreciation and depletion) as a
percentage of sales decreased from 76.8% to 71.8%. The decrease was
realized by both segments and is due to the improved sales as well as
cost containment measures.
Selling and administrative expenses increased $508,000 (13.7%) and as a
percentage of sales from 12.8% to 13.5%. The increase in percentage is
related compensation matters and higher consulting fees.
Interest expense declined reflecting the lower levels of outstanding
debt.
The historical pattern of operating losses during the first quarter
followed by stronger second and third quarters with a slight decline
during the fourth quarter has changed in recent years. The main causes
are the strong performance of the construction materials segment which
has benefited from the continuing strong economy and mild winter weather
along the Front Range of southern Colorado. Additionally, the fan coil
product line of the heating and air conditioning segment continues to
grow and shows little seasonality.
OPERATIONS - COMPARISON OF SIX MONTHS ENDED JULY 3, 1999 TO SIX MONTHS
JULY 3, 1998 (SEE PAGE 4)
Net sales rose $3,844,000 (7.4%). The increase in the heating and air
conditioning segment, $3,229,000 was due to the reasons noted above. The
$612,000 increase in the construction materials segment can be attributed
to mild weather and the continuing high level of construction activity
along the Front Range in southern Colorado slightly offset by the results
for April as noted above.
Consolidated cost of sales (exclusive of depreciation and depletion) as a
percentage of sales decreased from 76.2% to 73.4%. The decrease was
realized by both segments and is due to the reasons noted above.
Selling and administrative expenses increased $776,000 (10.8%) and as a
percentage of sales from 13.9% to 14.4%. The increase in percentage is
related to the introduction of a new combination cooling and heating
product as well as the reasons noted above.
Interest expense declined due to the reason noted above.
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
The year 2000 issue relates to the way computer hardware and software
define calendar dates; many use only two digits to represent the year
which could cause failures or miscalculations. In addition, many systems
and equipment that are not typically thought of as "computer-related"
(referred to as "non-IT") contain imbedded hardware or software that may
include a time element. The Year 2000 issue can arise at any point in the
8
<PAGE>
Company's supply, manufacturing, processing, distribution and financial
chains. As a result, the Company is at risk of disruptions to its
business operations from possible miscalculations or system failures
occurring not only in its own equipment and software, but those occurring
in any business or governmental entity that the Company relies on for
goods or services.
The Company has completed a study, with the assistance of external
consultants, to evaluate the Company's current internal information and
financial systems. The Company concluded that the majority of the
existing systems were not Year 2000 compliant. We have therefore
undertaken to implement a Year 2000 compliant enterprise resource
planning (ERP) system to replace all non-compliant systems as well as to
modernize and integrate all of the Company's systems. The majority of the
hardware utilized by the Company, including all that may be Year 2000
non-compliant, has been replaced. Work on the project began in the second
quarter of 1998 and is expected to be completed during the fourth quarter
of 1999. The cost of the entire project is currently estimated at
$3,500,000 including hardware, software, consulting fees and other
out-of-pocket expenses. Approximately $3,000,000 has been incurred to
date. Funding will be furnished by a lease of approximately $1,500,000
with the balance provided by operating cash flow. The cost of the project
is not expected to have a significant negative impact on the Company's
future financial results.
A review has been undertaken to assess and correct Year 2000 issues
affecting both our products and non-IT systems and equipment used in our
businesses. At the present time, the Company has not identified any
products that would not be Year 2000 compliant.
We rely on third party suppliers for raw materials, water, utilities,
transportation and other key services. Interruption to any of their
operations due to Year 2000 issues could affect the operations of our
Company. We have initiated efforts to ascertain the level of preparedness
of this group. We have found some of these entities less willing to
provide information concerning their state of readiness. Alternative
sources of raw materials and certain other services have been identified,
where possible, to help mitigate any impact due to disruptions at any of
our key suppliers. While we believe that the steps we have taken should
reduce the adverse effect on our Company of any such disruptions, the
interdependent nature of the Company and its suppliers, service
providers, utilities and governmental agencies is such that a disruption
at one or more suppliers could have material adverse consequences.
We are also dependent upon our customers for sales and cash flow. Year
2000 interruptions in our customers' operations could result in reduced
sales, increased inventory or receivable levels and cash flow reductions.
While these events are possible, we believe our customer base is broad
enough to minimize the affects to our Company of system disruptions at
some customers' operations. We are, however, taking steps to contact and
monitor the status of our larger customers as a means of determining
risks and alternatives.
At this time, we have not learned of any potential exposures from
external, non-compliant third party suppliers or customers.
