Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
Working capital for the six months ended December 31, 1995 decreased by
approximately $837. Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately
$266. Net cash used by financing activities was approximately $422. Net cash of
approximately $339 was provided by investing activities.
The company has a $10,000 term loan and a $3,000 revolving line of credit with
its principal lender, collateralized by a mortgage on the East Newark Industrial
Center. At December 31, 1995, $3,000 is outstanding under the line of credit.
The term loan, which has an outstanding balance of $7,778 at December 31, 1995,
requires monthly principal payments of $56 and matures on August 1, 1997 when
the remaining unpaid principal balance of $6,667 will become due. The revolving
line, which is renewable annually, is due December 31, 1996. The interest rate
on both facilities is one percent in excess of the lender's prime rate.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
-----------------------------------------------------------
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONTINUED
-------------------------------------
(IN THOUSANDS)
------------
REAL ESTATE
- -----------
Revenues increased $439. A mortgage obtained January 1, 1995 on the
Jefferson Bank Building in Miami Beach, Florida increased mortgage interest
expense by $158 and repairs and maintenance increased by $182. There were no
other significant variations in any expense category.
HOTEL
- -----
Revenues increased $91 over last year. Hotel earnings increased $137 as
a result of the higher revenues and lower operating costs.
SEAFOOD
- -------
Revenues increased $1,299 in the current period. Earnings decreased
$2,270 for the seafood division due primarily to the presence of "brown tide" at
our clam operation during the summer months which curtailed production, the lack
of availability of scallops for Lambert Seafood operations, and a substantial
reduction in the sales price of shrimp resulting from a temporary oversupply of
product worldwide.
TEXTILES
- --------
Hanora Spinning's earnings increased $171 to $287 for the six months
due to higher operating costs. Hanora South and J & M Dyers recognized combined
losses of $200 compared to last years profit of $155 due substantially to J & M
Dyers completion of a substantial contract that expired in December 1994.
Whitlock Combing incurred a loss of $163 in the current period as compared to a
loss of $228 last year relating to its property in South Carolina which is being
offered for sale. Overall, textile revenues decreased $1,013 due to reduced
sales at J & M of approximately $1,000.
CORPORATE/OTHER
- ---------------
Corporate including the operations of the nursing homes and interest on
the Company's term loan and revolving line of credit, remained approximately the
same.
