1. General

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310 of
Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited
interim consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting
only of normal recurring accruals) necessary to make such financial statements
not misleading. Results for the three months ended March 31, 1997 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 1997. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1996.

2. Earnings per Share

In February 1997, the Financial Standards Board issued Statement No. 128,
Earnings per Share, which is required to be adopted on December 31, 1997. At
that time, the Company will be required to change the method currently used to
compute earnings per share and to restate all prior periods. Under the new
requirements for calculating primary earnings per share, the dilutive effect of
stock options will be excluded. The impact of Statement 128 on the calculation
of primary and fully diluted earnings per share for these quarters is not
expected to be material.

3. Pro Forma Information (Unaudited)

On December 21, 1996, the Company sold the stock of its subsidiary Marsel Mirror
and Glass Products, Inc. ("Marsel") for $1. The operations of Marsel are
included in the statement of operations for the three months ended March 31,
1996.

The pro forma unaudited results of operations for the three months ended March
31, 1996, assuming the sale of Marsel had been consummated as of January 1,
1996, are as follows (in thousands, except per share date):

         Revenues                                    $------
         Net loss                                    $51,000
         Net loss per common share                      $.05

Item 2.               MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- -------         OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Introduction

         The financial statements included in this Report as of, and for the
quarter ended, March 31, 1996 contain the consolidated financial condition and
results of operation for the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Marsel
Mirror & Glass Products, Inc. ("Marsel"). On December 21, 1996, the Company sold
all the outstanding shars of Marsel. The Company currently has no operating
business. Accordingly, a comparison of operating results with prior periods is
not material.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The Company's cash and cash equivalents totaled $5,840,000 at March 31,
1997, a decrease of $206,000 from $6,046,000 at December 31, 1996. The decrease
in cash during the first quarter of 1997 was attributable to the payment in the
quarter ended March 31, 1997 of guarantees of certain of Marsel's payables which
were accrued as of December 31, 1996.

         While the Company seeks an acquisition or other business combination,
management believes its cash position is sufficient to cover administrative
expenses and current obligations for the foreseeable future.
