                                     PART I
Item 1.     BUSINESS

           Amelco Corporation (the "Company") was organized in 1967 to become
the parent of existing operating companies. The Company, through its
subsidiaries, engages in specialty construction work (primarily electrical and
mechanical construction).  Construction operations are conducted in the western
continental United States, Hawaii and Guam.

OPERATIONS

           The Company's contracting subsidiaries primarily act as specialty
contractors, and are capable of providing the full range of services in the
construction and installation of electrical and mechanical systems. These
activities are performed in the commercial and industrial construction market,
primarily in connection with the construction, rebuilding or renovation of
commercial buildings, industrial plants, convention buildings, wastewater
treatment plants, hotels, hospitals, hydroelectric dams, refineries, power
generating facilities, security systems, highway lighting and military
facilities.

           Over the years, profit has been dependent upon management's ability
to accurately estimate costs to be incurred on projects which are competitively
bid and to effectively control costs of work in progress. Costs ultimately
incurred are affected by the incidence of such events and conditions as labor
shortages, time extensions, weather, latent geological conditions, delays
caused by others and fluctuations in the prices of materials. Because of the
large number of variables affecting costs (many of which are not controllable),
increased revenues in a particular accounting period do not necessarily result
in increased operating profits; losses may occur even when revenues increase.

           The subsidiaries operate in a highly competitive industry. They
compete with numerous other local, regional and national contractors, both
smaller and larger than the subsidiaries, none of which are considered to be
dominant in the construction markets in which the subsidiaries operate.
Substantially all of the subsidiaries' construction contracts are awarded on
the basis of competitive bidding. Because of the degree of competition in the
industry, which is primarily based on the price of construction services
rendered, there is a greater likelihood that the subsidiaries will be an
unsuccessful bidder rather than a successful bidder.





                                       1
<PAGE>   3



           Substantially all of the construction contracts have been
fixed-price contracts. Substantially greater risks are involved in fixed-price
contracts than in cost-plus-fee and target-estimate contracts since the
contractor assumes responsibility for completing the work for the contract
price regardless of ultimate costs. The ability of the subsidiaries to mitigate
these risks is largely dependent upon management's ability to accurately
estimate construction costs at the time of bid preparation and to effectively
manage and control costs of work in progress during the course of contract
performance.

           The Company has no major customers, the loss of which would have a
material adverse impact on the Company.

           In connection with these contracting activities, the subsidiaries,
from time to time, assert claims for compensation in excess of the contract
price because of delays, owner-caused changed conditions or interruptions,
improper or revised specifications or disagreements with respect to the
contracted scope of work. Claims for additional compensation may arise in any
accounting period and may or may not be material to operations. All costs of
construction which give rise to a claim are expensed in the period in which
they were incurred. However, the amount of any claim is not recognized as
revenue until a settlement has been concluded.  Claim settlements in 1995 and
1994 were not significant. Income from claim settlements in fiscal 1993
approximated $366,000. Various other claims have been filed. No assurance can
be given that such claims will be allowed nor is the extent of any potential
recovery presently estimable.

           The subsidiaries have numerous suppliers for materials and
equipment, none of which are individually dominant, and have experienced no
significant difficulty in obtaining the materials needed to pursue the
contracted work.

           The backlog of uncompleted contracting work was approximately
$87,661,000 on contracts in force as of September 30, 1995, compared with
$122,084,000 as of September 30, 1994, inclusive of the Company's proportionate
share of contract backlog from joint ventures amounting to $40,000 and
$4,425,000 at September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The Company estimates
that 75% of the September 30, 1995 backlog will be substantially completed
during fiscal 1996. Contracting backlog at any given time is subject to change
due to modifications to the projects concerned. While backlog is an indication
of future revenues, no assurance can be given that earnings will be realized
from performance of contracts reflected in the backlog.

           The Company, through its subsidiaries, participates in joint venture
arrangements from time to time where the joint venturers undertake to bid and
complete, if awarded, a construction contract. These arrangements typically
provide for the sharing of profit or losses in the same relationship as the
capital contributions of the joint venturers and joint and several
responsibility for contract performance.  In fiscal 1995, a subsidiary of the
Company had three separate joint venture





                                       2
<PAGE>   4



arrangements which provided for equity participations ranging from 49% to 50%.
Projects under these joint venture arrangements, including a joint venture with
Industrial Construction, an Idaho-based specialty contractor, are substantially
complete at September 30, 1995. Further information on joint venture
participations is contained in note 10 to the consolidated financial statements
in Item 8, Part II of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

           The Company's Hawaii - based contracting subsidiaries perform
various maintenance and repair services relating primarily to electrical and
air-conditioning installations. Revenues derived from maintenance and repair
services are not material to the consolidated financial statements.

           Employees:  As of September 30, 1995, the Company had approximately
526 employees, of whom approximately 450 were engaged in operational activities
and approximately 76 were in supervisory, administrative and clerical
positions. Portions of the construction work for which the Company is
responsible are carried out by subcontractors who separately employ additional
personnel.  The number of employees engaged in operational activities
fluctuates continuously based upon the number and size of projects. A number of
labor unions represent employees, of which local unions of the International
Brotherhood of Electrical Workers are considered to be dominant. No one union
is the sole bargaining agent.

           Employee benefits for non-bargaining employees include a 401(k) plan
and group medical, dental, disability and life insurance programs.

           Energy, Supply, Production and Environmental Matters:

           The Company is not in an energy intensive business.

           The Company experienced no significant problems in fiscal 1995
relating to the availability or price of construction materials.

           Construction operations are primarily located in Hawaii and the
western continental United States and, therefore, are not normally subject to
the effects of significant seasonal variations.

           The Company's operations are such that compliance with environmental
legislation and regulations is not a significant factor. The Company, to some
extent, benefits from construction work resulting from compliance with
environmental requirements by other industries.

Item 2.     PROPERTIES

           The following table summarizes properties occupied by the Company

(1)      In addition to office and warehouse facilities for the Los Angeles
         construction operations, this property houses the corporate offices of
         the Company. This property is presently being rented from a related
         party on a quarter-to-quarter basis pending management's evaluation of
         alternative office requirements.

(2)      This property serves as the central office for the Hawaii construction
         operations. This leasehold property has been pledged as collateral for
         short-term debt of the Company. The lease expires in 2029.

(3)      This property has been pledged as security for an eight-year
         $2,000,000 mortgage loan obtained by the Company in August 1993.
         Further information with respect to the mortgage is provided in note 4
         to the consolidated financial statements in Item 8, Part II of this
         report, which is incorporated herein by reference.


Item 3.     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

           There are no material legal proceedings to which the Company or any
of its subsidiaries are a party which would, in management's opinion, have a
material impact on the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.

           The reported bid price on December 1, 1995 was 2-1/2.

           These quotations were provided by a single stockbroker (Abel-Behnke
Corporation) known to make a market in the Company's common stock and reflect
bids only, without retail markup, markdown or commission and may not
necessarily represent actual transactions.

           The Company has paid cash dividends on its common stock of $0.10,
$0.15, $0.25, $0.15, $0.25 and $0.25 on February 15, 1995, March 25, 1994,
February 12, 1993, March 16, 1992, November 15, 1990 and September 25, 1989,
respectively. The payment of dividends requires the consent of the Company's
bonding surety and its bank. Future dividends, if any, are dependent on the
profitability of the Company and are not assured.

           As of December 1, 1995, the approximate number of holders of record
of the Company's common stock was 315.

           Total construction revenue includes the Company's proportionate

$5,854,000, $2,513,000, $2,283,000 and $7,139,000 in fiscal 1995, 1994, 1993,
1992 and 1991, respectively.

Item 7.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
            CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

         Cash balances increased by $1,173,000 in 1995. Working capital
increased by $610,000 to $11,161,000 in 1995 representing an increase of 5.8%
from the previous year. These changes reflect the increase in the Company's
contracting volume in fiscal 1995 and the related increase in current assets.
The changes included an increase in contract and trade receivables which
increased by $1,449,000. Billings in excess of costs and recognized profits on
uncompleted contracts also increased by $970,000





                                       7
<PAGE>   9



although this was offset by an increase in costs and recognized profits in
excess of billings on uncompleted contracts of $135,000.  In addition, the
Company's investment in joint ventures decreased by $1,042,000 in fiscal 1995
consisting of distributions to the joint venture partners.

         Financing activities in 1995 provided $813,000 of cash, consisting of
cash provided by short-term borrowings under the Company's line of credit of
$900,000 and net funds provided by a short-term note payable for insurance
premiums of $102,000. This increase was offset by the repayment of long-term
debt amounting to $45,000 and the payment of a $144,000 dividend to 
stockholders in February 1995.

         Investing activities consumed cash of $539,000, primarily for the
acquisition of plant and equipment aggregating $380,000, purchase of real
estate held for investment of $200,000 and a decrease in minority interest of
$16,000. This was partially offset by cash received from notes receivable
aggregating $42,000 and proceeds from sale of assets of $15,000.

         The Company's backlog of future construction work at September 30,
1995 approximated $87,661,000, inclusive of the Company's proportionate share
of contract backlog from joint venture participations aggregating $40,000.
Geographically, contract backlog approximating $57,731,000 is in California,
$11,185,000 is in Hawaii and Guam and $18,745,000 is in other states.

         The Company continues to maintain short-term working capital lines of
credit amounting to $6,000,000. These credit facilities are primarily used to
fund short-term cash needs resulting from customer payment periods which are
frequently longer than payment periods for the Company's vendors. Management
believes that the present liquidity of the Company together with the
availability of the lines of credit are adequate to provide the working capital
to fund the Company's operations in 1996 and beyond.

         The Company's short-term lines of credit are indexed to the prime
rate. Although the Company has mitigated its exposure to interest rate
movements by the addition of long-term fixed rate debt in 1993, further
significant changes in the prime rate, either up or down, may have a
significant impact on the Company.

         The Company's operations are such that significant investment in
property, plant and equipment is not required. Capital expenditures in 1996
should consist primarily of replacement or renovation of existing equipment and
are not expected to be significant.

         The Financial Accounting Standards Board recently issued Statements of
Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets and Assets to be Disposed of" and No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based
Compensation" which are required to be adopted by the





                                       8

Company in fiscal year 1997. It is believed that the adoption of these
standards will not have a material effect on the Company's financial
statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Fiscal 1995 Compared to 1994

         Consolidated revenues increased by $12,090,000 in 1995. The change
reflects an increase in revenue of approximately  $19.1 million in California
which was partially offset by decreases in revenue approximating $4.9 million
in Hawaii and Guam and $2.1 million in other western U.S. states. Changes in
revenue volume reflect primarily the degree of success in bidding on new work
as well as the scheduling requirements of the customer, and are not necessarily
indicative of revenue volume or profitability in future periods. There are no
major contracts which were completed in 1995 or which will be completed in 1996
upon which the Company is dependent.

         Gross profit increased from $9,285,000 in 1994 to $10,073,000 in
fiscal 1995. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues decreased from 8.1% in
1994 to 8.0% in 1995. The change reflects primarily a decrease in gross profits
on construction work in the Hawaii operations which was offset by increased
profits from joint venture participations in 1995.  Gross margins applicable to
California operations were largely unchanged in the current year. The Company
and its subsidiaries have experienced highly competitive conditions in the
industrial and commercial construction markets in which it does business. This
is expected to continue in the near future.  Management's ability to enhance
profit margins in its business is largely limited to its ability to identify
profitable bidding opportunities, estimate accurately during the intial bidding
stage and upon award, to effectively manage jobsite labor and material
installation.

         General and administrative expenses increased from $7,848,000 in 1994
to $8,338,000 in 1995. However, as a percentage of revenue, general and
administrative expense decreased from 6.9% in 1994 to 6.6% in 1995. The change
reflects primarily the additional costs of project management and
administrative staff, together with related office support expenses, incurred
during the current year in response to the higher levels of construction
operations.

         Interest income increased by $58,000 in 1995 as compared to the
previous year due primarily to higher levels of cash maintained in interest
bearing accounts in the current year. Interest expense decreased by $10,000 in
1995 due primarily to lower levels of borrowings under the Company's lines of
credit offset by changes in the bank prime rates which increased from 7.75% to
8.75% at September 30, 1994 and 1995, respectively. Changes in other components
of other income and expense from the prior year were not significant.





                                       9
<PAGE>   11



Fiscal 1994 Compared to 1993

         Consolidated revenues increased by $18,577,000 in 1994. The change
reflects increases in revenue approximating $5.4 million in Hawaii and Guam,
$10.9 million in California and $2.3 million in other western U.S. states. The
growth in revenue is largely a result of an acceleration in construction work
put in place in the 4th fiscal quarter, primarily in California.

         Gross profit decreased from $9,993,000 in the prior period to
$9,285,000 in fiscal 1994. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues decreased
from 10.5% in 1993 to 8.1% in 1994. The decrease results from a combination of
the continued highly competitive conditions in the industrial and commercial
construction market and the Company's focus on procurement of larger projects
as a prime contractor.  In addition, the Company recorded unanticipated cost
increases approximating $.6 million on a construction project in Hawaii which
was completed in 1994 and $1.0 million on a construction contract in
California. Management is presently negotiating a claim for additional
compensation on the California project which, if approved, will be reflected in
the year a settlement is obtained. General and administrative expenses
decreased from $8,476,000 in the previous period to $7,848,000 in 1994. The
change primarily results from a reduction in the number of administrative and
office staff positions as well as transfers of office personnel to field
positions.

         Interest expense increased by $152,000 in 1994. The change reflects
approximately $132,000 of additional interest arising from the long-term
mortgage note obtained in August 1993, higher short-term interest rates in
1994 and an increase in the utilization of the Company's line of credit.
Changes in other components of other income and expense from the prior year
were not significant.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Amelco Corporation:

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Amelco Corporation and
subsidiaries as listed in the accompanying index.  These consolidated financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Amelco Corporation
and subsidiaries as of September 30, 1995 and 1994 and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period
ended September 30, 1995 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

As discussed in note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company
changed its method of accounting for income taxes to adopt the provisions of
the Financial Accounting Standards Board's Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," effective October 1, 1993.

                               AMELCO CORPORATION

                                AND SUBSIDIARIES

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

                          September 30, 1995 and 1994

(1)   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

      Company's Activities and Operating Cycle

      Amelco Corporation (the "Company") was organized in 1967 to become the
      parent of existing operating companies. The Company, through its
      subsidiaries, engages in specialty construction work, primarily
      electrical and mechanical construction. Work is generally performed under
      fixed-price contracts and is undertaken by the Company's subsidiaries
      alone, with subcontractors or in partnership with other contractors
      through joint ventures.

      The length of the construction contracts varies, but typically ranges
      from one to two years. In accordance with the operating cycle concept,
      the Company and its subsidiaries classify all contract-related assets and
      liabilities as current items.

      Basis of Consolidation

      The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
      and all subsidiaries. The consolidated statements of earnings includes
      the accounts of the Company, all subsidiaries and its prorata share of
      the results of operations from its joint ventures. All significant
      intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

      Reclassifications

      Certain accounts in the 1994 and 1993 financial statements have been
      restated to conform with the 1995 format. These reclassifications have no
      effect on net income as previously reported.

      Revenue Recognition on Long-Term Construction Contracts

      Income from construction operations and joint venture participations is
      recorded using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting. Under
      this method, that portion of the total contract price which is allocable,
      on the basis of the Company's estimate of the percentage of completion,
      to contract costs incurred and work performed is accrued. Recognition of
      profits is deferred until work on the contract has reached a state of
      completion sufficient for management to reasonably forecast the ultimate
      realizable profit. If estimated total costs on any contract or joint
      venture participation indicate a loss, the Company provides currently for
      the total loss anticipated on the contract. For long-term contracts which
      extend over one or more years, revisions in cost and profit estimates
      during the course of the work are reflected in the accounting period in
      which facts requiring the revision become known.

      Contract costs includes all direct material, labor and subcontract costs
      and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as
      indirect labor, tools, supplies, repairs and depreciation cost. General
      and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred.

      The asset "costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on
      uncompleted contracts" represents revenues recognized in excess of 
      amounts billed. The liability "billings in excess of costs and
      estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts" represents billings in
      excess of revenues recognized.

      Income from claims for additional contract compensation is recorded upon
      settlement of the disputed amount. Income from claim settlements in
      fiscal 1993 approximated $366,000. Claim settlements in 1995 and 1994
      were not significant. Certain subsidiaries of the Company had




                                       20
<PAGE>   22



      outstanding claims and claims in process of being filed at September 30,
      1995. The extent of recovery, if any, on these pending claims is not
      presently estimable.

      Cash Equivalents

      For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company
      considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of
      three months or less to be cash equivalents.

      Cash balances at September 30, 1995 and 1994 include approximately
      $1,616,000 and $1,098,000, respectively, in short-term time deposits
      maintained in lieu of retention which will be released upon completion of
      the related construction projects. Interest income on these deposits are
      credited to the Company.

      Inventories

      Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (primarily first-in,
      first-out) or market (net realizable value).

      Depreciation and Amortization

      The Company and its subsidiaries provide for depreciation and
      amortization of property, plant and equipment using the straight-line
      method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets or, if
      applicable, the remaining terms of the leases, whichever is shorter.

      The cost and accumulated depreciation applicable to assets sold or
      otherwise disposed of are eliminated from the asset and accumulated
      depreciation accounts. Gain or loss on disposition is reflected in other
      income or expenses.

      Income Taxes

      Effective October 1, 1993, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
      Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", which
      requires recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the
      expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the
      financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax
      liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the
      financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted
      rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to
      reverse. Prior to fiscal 1994, the Company had followed Statement of
      Financial Accounting Standards No. 96, "Accounting for Income Taxes".
      This new method of accounting was adopted prospectively at the beginning
      of fiscal 1994 and no prior periods were restated.

      Earnings per Share

      Earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common
      shares outstanding during the year.

(2)   Note Receivable from Related Party

      The Company has a note receivable from Halau Corporation which is owned
      by three principal stockholders and two officers of the Company. The
      promissory note is payable over 30 years with quarterly principal and
      interest payments of $87,000 computed at 9.5% per annum and is secured by
      a deed of trust on real estate and a security interest in the corporate
      assets of the Buyer.

(3)   Receivables

      Contract receivables represent only those amounts which actually have
      been billed for work performed. Contract retentions at September 30, 1995
      are collectible upon the owners' approval





                                       21

      of contract performance. Based upon anticipated contract completion
      dates, these retainages are expected to be collected as follows during
      the fiscal years ending September 30:

The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of September 30, 1995 and
1994 was $148,000 and $108,000, respectively. The net change in the total
valuation allowance for the year ended September 30, 1995 was an increase of
$40,000. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management
considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the
deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred
tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the
periods in which those temporary differences become deductible.

Income tax expense differed from the amounts computed by applying the U.S.
Federal income tax rate of 34% in 1995, 1994 and 1993 to earnings before income
taxes as follows:

(6)   Employee Retirement Plans

      The Company and its subsidiaries contribute to multiemployer pension
      plans, primarily defined benefit plans, as required by collective
      bargaining agreements. Amounts charged to construction cost and
      contributed to these plans in 1995, 1994 and 1993 aggregated $1,567,000,
      $1,839,000 and $974,000, respectively.

      The Company sponsors a defined contribution plan. All qualified
      nonbargaining U.S. employees of the Company are eligible to participate
      in the plan and may make voluntary contributions to the plan subject to
      certain limitations and restrictions. The amount of voluntary
      contributions and investment income thereon is fully vested and
      nonforfeitable; however, the interest of each participant in the
      Company's contributions and earnings on investments, less expenses, is
      vested in accordance with the plan. There is 100% vesting at retirement,
      disability or death of a participant.

      Under the terms of the plan, the accumulated balance of vested benefits
      in each participant's account is paid to the individual upon termination,
      retirement or death. Payment may be made in lump sum or in annual
      installments over a period not to exceed the participant's life
      expectancy. Any amounts forfeited upon termination or retirement are used
      to reduce future contributions of the Company in accordance with the
      plan.

      The Company's contribution under the defined contribution plan is a
      percentage of each employee's contribution. Amounts charged to general
      and administrative expense by the Company related to the plan for the
      years ended September 30, 1995, 1994 and 1993 were $40,000, $41,000 and
      $39,000, respectively.

(7)   Leases

      Operating Leases

      The Company and its subsidiaries lease various properties and equipment
      under long-term agreements which expire at varying dates through 2029,
      including a lease of land on which an office building and warehouse have
      been constructed. Real property leases generally provide for the Company
      to pay for taxes, maintenance and insurance applicable to the leased
      properties, and certain of these leases provide for renegotiation of
      annual rentals at specified dates.

      respectively.

      The Company and its subsidiaries have leased certain owned real property
      to others including primarily a lease of land and improvements under a
      noncancelable lease which expires in 2000. The lease provides for the
      lessee to pay for taxes, maintenance and insurance applicable to the
      leased property and at the end of the fixed term, provides an option to
      the lessee to extend for four successive terms of five years each at a
      rent to be agreed upon. At September 30, 1995, minimum future lease
      rentals to be received by the Company are as follows:

(8)   Litigation

      There are various lawsuits pending against and claims being pursued by
      the Company and its subsidiaries arising out of the normal course of
      business. It is management's present opinion that the outcome of these
      proceedings will not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated
      financial statements taken as a whole.

(9)   Minority Interest

      Minority interest represents the minority stockholders' proportionate
      share of the equity and the income or loss of an 89% owned consolidated
      subsidiary. The Company purchased a 79% interest in this contracting
      company in August 1992 for $79,000 and acquired an additional 10%
      interest in March 1995 for $15,000.
