              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(1)     Significant Accounting Policies

        The  significant  accounting  policies  followed  by the Company and its
        subsidiaries in preparing its consolidated  financial statements are set
        forth in Note (1) to such financial statements included in Form 10-K for
        the year ended  December 31, 1996.  The Company has made no  significant
        change in these policies during 1997.

        The Financial  Accounting  Standards Board has issued  Statement No. 128
        Earnings per Share.  The Company will  implement  the  provisions of the
        Statement for the year ending December 31, 1997. The Statement  requires
        replacement  of primary  earnings per shares (EPS) with basic EPS, which
        is computed by dividing income  available to common  shareholders by the
        weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS, which
        gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares  outstanding,  will
        still  be  required.  All  prior-period  EPS  data  presented  shall  be
        restated.  The EPS amounts shown on the Company's consolidated statement
        of  operations  for the three month and six month periods ended June 30,
        1997 and June 30, 1996 are the equivalents of basic EPS. Diluted EPS are
        not required (see Note 3 below).

        The Financial  Accounting  Standards Board has issued  Statement No. 129
        Disclosure of  Information  about Capital.  The Statement  continues the
        requirements  to  disclose  certain  information  about an  enterprise's
        capital  structure  prescribed  by previous  accounting  standards.  The
        Company's current disclosures are in compliance with the requirements of
        the Statement.

        The Financial  Accounting  Standards Board has issued  Statement No. 130
        Reporting   Comprehensive   Income.   The  Company  will  implement  the
        provisions  of the Statement in the quarter  ending March 31, 1998.  The
        Statement   requires  an  enterprise  to  report   certain   changes  in
        stockholders'  equity that are not reported in net income,  except those
        resulting from investments by and  distributions  to  stockholders,  and
        display these gains and losses below net income in the income statement,
        in a separate  statement that begins with net income or in the statement
        of changes in stockholders'  equity. The provisions of the Statement are
        limited  to issues  of  reporting  and  presentation  and do not  affect
        matters of recognition and measurement of items of comprehensive income.
        Consequently,  the Company does not expect the effect of its adoption of
        the Statement to be material.

        The Financial  Accounting  Standards Board has issued  Statement No. 131
        Disclosures  about  Segments of an  Enterprise  and Related  Information
        which supersedes  Statement No. 14 Financial Reporting for Segments of a
        Business  Enterprise.  The Company will  implement the provisions of the
        Statement for the year ending  December 31, 1998.  Generally,  financial
        information  is  required  to be  reported  on the basis that it is used
        internally  for  evaluating  segment  performance  and  deciding  how to
        allocate resources to segments.  The Statement requires an enterprise to
        report a measure of segment profit or loss, certain specific revenue and
        expense items and segment assets. It requires  reconciliations  of total
        segment  revenues,  total segment profit or loss,  total segment assets,
        and other amounts disclosed for segments to corresponding amounts in the
        enterprise's  financial statements.  It requires an enterprise to report
        information about the revenues derived from its products or services (or
        groups of similar  products and services),  about the countries in which
        the  enterprise  earns  revenues  and  holds  assets,  and  about  major
        customers. The provisions of the Statement relate primarily to issues of
        reporting and  presentation,  and the Company does not expect the effect
        of its adoption of the Statement to be material.

(2)     Provision For Income Taxes

        The lower-than-normal tax rate in 1997 and 1996 reflects the realization
        of a portion of the tax  benefit  not  recognized  in prior years due to
        certain accounting limitations.

(3)     Per Share Data

        Computations  of  earnings  per common  share  amounts  are based on the
        weighted  average  number of the  Company's  common  shares  outstanding
        during the periods  presented.  Earnings available for common shares are
        calculated as follows (in thousands):

</TABLE>


        Common stock  equivalents  related to additional  shares of common stock
        issuable upon  exercise of stock  options have not been  included  since
        their effect would be  antidilutive.  Per share data on a fully  diluted
        basis is not presented because the effect of conversion of the Company's
        depositary  convertible  exchangeable  preferred  shares  and  Series  B
        preferred shares into common stock is also antidilutive.

(4)     Dividends

        There were no cash dividends on common stock declared or paid during the
        periods  included in the  consolidated  condensed  financial  statements
        presented herein.

        As  previously  disclosed,  in  conjunction  with the  covenants  of the
        Company's  Amended  Revolving Credit Agreement as well as the New Credit
        Agreement,  effective  January  17,  1997,  the  Company is  required to
        suspend the payment of quarterly dividends on its $21.25 preferred stock
        (equivalent to $2.125 per depositary  share) ("Senior  Preferred Stock")
        until certain financial  criteria are met.  Therefore,  the dividends on
        the Senior  Preferred  Stock have not been declared since 1995 (although
        they have been  fully  accrued  due to the  "cumulative"  feature of the
        Senior Preferred Stock). The aggregate amount of dividends in arrears is
        $3,787,500 at June 30, 1997, which represents  approximately  $37.88 per
        share of Preferred Stock or approximately $3.79 per depositary share.

        In-kind  dividends  (based on an annual  rate of 10%) were paid on March
        17, 1997 on the Series B Preferred Stock for the period from January 17,
        1997 (date of issuance) to March 15, 1997 to the  stockholders of record
        on March 1, 1997.  The  dividend  was paid in the form of  approximately
        2,419  additional  shares of Series B Preferred  Stock valued at $200.00
        per share for a total of  $483,815.  In-kind  dividends  for the seconds
        quarter  were paid on June 16, 1997 on the Series B  Preferred  Stock to
        the stockholders of record on June 1, 1997. The dividend was paid in the
        form of  approximately  3,814  additional  shares of Series B  Preferred
        Stock valued at $200.00 per share for a total of $762,846.

(5)     Basis of Presentation 

        The unaudited  consolidated  condensed  financial  statements  presented
        herein have been prepared in accordance  with the  instructions  to Form
        10-Q and do not  include  all of the  information  and note  disclosures
        required by generally accepted accounting  principles.  These statements
        should be read in  conjunction  with the financial  statements and notes
        thereto  included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December
        31,  1996.  In the opinion of  management,  the  accompanying  unaudited
        condensed financial statements include all adjustments,  consisting only
        of  normal  recurring  adjustments,  necessary  to  present  fairly  the
        Company's  financial  position  as of  June  30,  1997  and  results  of
        operations  and cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 1997
        and 1996.  The results of operations for the six month period ended June
        30, 1997 may not be  indicative  of the results that may be expected for
        the year  ending  December  31,  1997,  because  the  Company's  results
        generally  consist  of a limited  number of large  transactions  in both
        construction and real estate. Therefore, such results can vary depending
        on the timing of transactions  and the  profitability  of projects being
        reported.

(6)     New Equity and New Credit Agreement

        As disclosed in Note 14 to the Company's  financial  statements included
        in the  Company's  Form 10-K for the year ended  December 31,  1996,  on
        January 17, 1997, the Company's stockholders approved two proposals that
        allowed the Company to close its new equity  transaction and receive net
        proceeds  of $27  million.  Concurrent  with the  closing  of the equity
        transaction,  the  Company  entered  into a new  renegotiated  Revolving
        Credit Agreement.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

    Comparison of the Second Quarter of 1997 with the Second Quarter of 1996

Revenues increased $72.4 million (or 23%), from $316.5 million in 1996 to $388.9
million in 1997. This increase resulted from increased  construction revenues of
$54.4 million (or 18%),  from $307.2  million in 1996 to $361.6 million in 1997,
due  primarily  to an increase in revenues  from  building  operations  of $40.0
million (or 20%),  from $203.5 million in 1996 to $243.5 million in 1997, and to
a lesser degree,  an increase in revenues from civil operations of $14.4 million
(or 14%),  from  $103.7  million in 1996 to $118.1  million  in 1997.  Increased
building  construction  revenues were due primarily to hotel/casino  projects in
Las Vegas which was  partially  offset by a decrease  in  building  construction
revenues  in the  Midwest due to a  substantial  decrease in backlog  going into
1997. Increased civil construction  revenues were due primarily to the favorable
impact from several large infrastructure projects in the Boston and Metropolitan
New York areas which was  partially  offset by a decrease in civil  construction
revenues  in the  Midwest due to a  substantial  decrease in backlog  going into
1997. Real estate revenues also increased by $18.0 million, from $9.3 million in
1996 to $27.3  million in 1997  because of  revenues  related to the sale of the
Company's interest in the Resort at Squaw Creek in Squaw Valley, California.

In spite of the increase in revenues,  total gross profit decreased  slightly by
$.5 million (or 3%),  from $13.7 million in 1996 to $13.2 million in 1997 due to
an overall decrease in gross profit from construction operations of $.5 million,
from $14.1 million in 1996 to $13.6 million in 1997.  This net decrease in gross
profit from  construction  was caused by losses  incurred in closing out work in
two Midwest  divisions,  which the Company is in the process of phasing out, and
an increase in the estimated loss on the completion of a large tunnel project in
the  Midwest.  These gross profit  decreases  were  partially  offset by profits
related to the increased  building and civil  construction  revenues referred to
above.  In spite of the  Company's  sale of its  interest in the Resort at Squaw
Creek,  the gross  loss in 1997 was  comparable  to the $.4  million  gross loss
reported  in 1996,  since the loss  realized on the sale of the Resort was fully
provided for in prior years.

General,  administrative  and selling expenses decreased by $.4 million (or 5%),
from $8.5 million in 1996 to $8.1 million in 1997  primarily due to  down-sizing
and refocusing of certain marginal construction units.

Other income (expense) net decreased by $.3 million,  from a net expense of zero
in 1996 to a net expense of $.3 million in 1997 due to increased amortization of
deferred debt expense related to the new credit agreement.

Interest expense decreased by $.4 million (or 15%), from $2.7 million in 1996 to
$2.3 million in 1997, due primarily to less borrowings from  construction  joint
ventures during the period.

The lower than normal tax rate in 1997 and 1996 is due to the utilization of tax
loss carry forwards from prior years. Because of certain accounting limitations,
the  Company was not able to  recognize a portion of the tax benefit  related to
the operating loss experienced in fiscal 1996 and 1995.

                                   (Continued)


                Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 1997
                    with the Six Months Ended June 30, 1996

Revenues  increased  $129.6  million (or 22%),  from  $586.5  million in 1996 to
$716.1  million in 1997.  This  increase  resulted from  increased  construction
revenues  of $113.4  million  (or 20%),  from  $565.7  million in 1996 to $679.1
million  in 1997,  due  primarily  to an  increase  in  revenues  from  building
construction  operations of $107.0 million (or 28%), from $381.7 million in 1996
to $488.7 million in 1997.  Increased  building  construction  revenues were due
primarily  to  hotel/casino  projects  in Las  Vegas  and to a lesser  degree an
increase in revenues from correctional facility projects in the East, which were
partially offset by a decrease in building  construction revenues in the Midwest
due to a substantial decrease in backlog going into 1997. In addition,  revenues
from civil construction operations increased $6.4 million (or 3.5%), from $184.0
million  in 1996 to  $190.4  million  in 1997 due  primarily  to  several  large
infrastructure projects in the Boston and Metropolitan New York areas, which was
partially offset by a decrease in civil construction revenues in the Midwest due
to a substantial  decrease in backlog going into 1997. Revenues from real estate
operations increased $16.2 million,  from $20.8 million in 1996 to $37.0 million
in 1997 because of revenues related to the sale of the Company's interest in the
Resort at Squaw Creek.

In spite of the  increase  in  revenues  described  above,  total  gross  profit
decreased  slightly  from $25.4  million in 1996 to $25.3  million in 1997.  The
gross  loss from real  estate  operations  increased  by $.3  million,  from $.3
million  in  1996  to $.6  million  in  1997  due  primarily  to a  decrease  in
condominium  sales in Georgia on a project that was completely sold out in 1996.
In spite of the increase in construction revenues referred to above, the overall
gross profit reflected a net increase of only $.2 million, from $25.7 million in
1996 to $25.9 million in 1997 due to losses  incurred in closing out work in two
Midwest  divisions,  which the Company is in the process of phasing  out, and an
increase in the estimated  loss on the  completion of a large tunnel  project in
the Midwest, which substantially offset increases in gross profit related to the
increase in revenues.

General, administrative and selling expenses decreased by $1.7 million (or 10%),
from $16.6 million in 1996 to $14.9 million in 1997 primarily due to down-sizing
and refocusing of certain marginal construction units.

Other income  (expense) net increased by $.5 million,  from a net expense of $.4
million  in 1996 to a net  expense  of $.9  million  in 1997  due  primarily  to
increased  amortization  of  deferred  debt  expense  related  to the new credit
agreement.

Interest expense increased by $.6 million (or 13%), from $4.5 million in 1996 to
$5.1  million in 1997 due to a higher  average  level of  borrowings  during the
first quarter of 1997 as well as higher effective interest rates.

The lower than normal tax rate in 1997 and 1996 is due to the utilization of tax
loss carry forwards from prior years. Because of certain accounting limitations,
the  Company was not able to  recognize a portion of the tax benefit  related to
the operating losses experienced in fiscal 1996 and 1995.

Financial Condition
- -------------------

Working capital  increased $19.5 million,  from $56.7 million at the end of 1996
to $76.2  million at June 30, 1997.  The current ratio  increased  slightly from
1.19 to 1 to 1:28 to 1 during this same period.

During the first six months of 1997, the Company generated $32.2 million in cash
from the  following  sources:  $8.1 million in cash from  operating  activities,
primarily from the sale of its interest in the Resort

at  Squaw  Creek;  $11.2  million  from  investing  activities,  primarily  from
distributions  of capital from various  construction  joint ventures;  and $12.9
million net from financing  activities due to $26.6 million in net proceeds from
the sale of the Series B Preferred  Stock and  repayment  of  approximately  $16
million in long-term debt.

Long-term  debt at June 30, 1997 was $87.7  million,  a decrease of $9.2 million
from December 31, 1996.  The long-term debt to equity ratio at June 30, 1997 was
2:07 to 1, compared to 2:72 to 1 at December 31, 1996.

Effective  January  17,  1997 the  Company's  liquidity  and  access  to  future
borrowings,  as required,  during the next few years were significantly enhanced
by the $27 million in net proceeds  received upon the issuance of the new Series
B Preferred Stock and a new renegotiated  Revolving Credit Agreement.  Under the
new Credit  Agreement,  the previous  Revolving Credit Agreement and Bridge Loan
Facility  were combined into a single  $129.5  million  credit  facility and the
expiration dates extended from 1997 to January 1, 2000. The new Credit Agreement
provides for scheduled  mandatory  reductions in the commitment in the amount of
$15.0  million in 1997,  $15.0  million in 1998,  $12.5  million in 1999 and the
balance  in 2000.  Management  believes  that cash  generated  from  operations,
existing credit lines and additional  borrowings  should be adequate to meet the
Company's funding requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Outlook
- -------

The  statements  contained in this Outlook  that are not purely  historical  are
forward-looking  statements  within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934,  including
statements regarding the Company's expectations,  hopes, beliefs,  intentions or
strategies regarding the future. All forward-looking statements included in this
Outlook are based on information available to the Company on the date hereof. It
is important to note that the Company's  actual results could differ  materially
from those in such forward-looking statements.

Looking ahead, we must consider the Company's construction backlog and remaining
portfolio of real estate projects.  The overall construction backlog at June 30,
1997 was a $1.59  billion,  which  represented a 5% increase over the backlog at
December 31, 1996.  While  approximately  53% of the current  backlog relates to
building construction  projects,  which generally represent lower risk and lower
margin  work,  approximately  47%  of  the  current  backlog  relates  to  civil
construction   projects,    which   generally   represent   higher   risk,   but
correspondingly higher margin work.

The  Company's  strategic  plan to  generate  up to $30  million  in  short-term
liquidity from certain of its real estate properties, through accelerated sales,
is proceeding according to plan.

Part II. - Other Information
- ----------------------------

Item 1. - Legal Proceedings

On July 30, 1993,  the U.S.  District  Court (D.C.),  in a preliminary  opinion,
upheld   terminations   for  default  on  two  adjacent   contracts  for  subway
construction  between  Mergentime-Perini,  under  two  joint  ventures,  and the
Washington   Metropolitan  Area  Transit  Authority   ("WMATA")  and  found  the
Mergentime  Corporation,  Perini  Corporation and the Insurance Company of North
America,  the surety,  jointly and severally  liable to WMATA for damages in the
amount of $16.5 million,  consisting  primarily of excess reprocurement costs to
complete the projects.  Many issues were left partially or completely unresolved
by the opinion,  including  substantial joint venture claims against WMATA. As a
result of developments in the case during the third quarter of 1995, the Company
established a reserve with respect to the litigation.

In July 1997,  the  remaining  issues were ruled on by the Court,  which awarded
approximately $4.3 million to the joint venture, thereby reducing the net amount
payable to  approximately  $12.2 million.  The joint venture  currently plans to
appeal the decision.  As a result of the decision,  there is no immediate impact
on the Company's  Statement of Income  because of the reserve  provided in prior
years.  The actual  funding of net damages,  if any, will be deferred  until the
appeal process is complete.

Item 2. - Changes in Securities

(a)(b)(c) On January 17, 1997,  the Company  issued and sold 150,150 shares
          of Series B Cumulative  Convertible  Preferred  Stock, par value $1.00
          per share (the "Series B Preferred"),  to PB Capital  Partners,  L.P.,
          The Union  Labor Life  Insurance  Company  Separate  Account P and The
          Common  Fund  for  Non-Profit  Organizations  for a price  of $200 per
          share, or a total purchase price of $30,030,000. Dividends are payable
          on the Series B Preferred  either in cash or in  additional  shares of
          Series B Preferred (a "Payment- In-Kind"). The cash dividend rate is 7
          percent (9 percent upon the  occurrence  of certain  defaults) and the
          Payment-In-Kind  dividend  rate is 10  percent  (12  percent  upon the
          occurrence of certain defaults) of the Liquidation  Preference,  which
          is equal to $200 per  share of  Series B  Preferred.  The terms of the
          Series B  Preferred  provide  that no cash  dividends  or  other  cash
          distributions  may be paid in respect of the  Company's  Common  Stock
          until 2001, at which time limited  dividends may be paid if authorized
          by the Board of Directors.

          Each share of Series B Preferred is  convertible,  at any time, at the
          election of the holder,  into fully paid and  nonassessable  shares of
          Common Stock at the rate of that number of shares of Common Stock that
          is  equal  to the  Liquidation  Preference.  Holders  of the  Series B
          Preferred  have voting  rights equal to the number of shares of Common
          Stock  into  which it is  convertible  and will  vote as a class  with
          holders of the Common Stock.

          Upon the  issuance of the Series B  Preferred,  the rights of existing
          stockholders  were affected in several principal ways. As the Series B
          Preferred is convertible and have voting rights equal to the number of
          shares of Common Stock into which it is convertible, the voting rights
          of existing  stockholders  is diluted.  In addition,  the right of the
          holders of the Series B Preferred to designate  certain  directors and
          members of the Executive Committee, including providing such Executive
          Committee  members with an effective veto over certain major decisions
          of the  Company,  is also a dilutive  effect on the  voting  rights of
          stockholders.  In  addition,  the Series B  Preferred  may also have a
          dilutive  effect on the  earnings  per share of the Company due to the
          increase in number of shares of Common Stock on a fully diluted basis.
          Furthermore, the book value of each share of Common Stock may decrease
          due to a conversion price below book value.

          Registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"),
          of the Series B

Part II. - Other Information (Continued)
- ----------------------------------------

          Preferred  was not required for the reason that the Series B Preferred
          was issued and sold to a limited number of investors and  accomplished
          in transactions  not involving a public offering within the meaning of
          Section 4(2) of the Act.

Item 3. - Defaults Upon Senior Securities

(a)       None

(b)       In accordance with the provisions of the 1995 Amended Revolving Credit
          Agreement  and the recently  renegotiated  new Credit  Agreement,  the
          Company  suspended  payment  of  quarterly  dividends  on  its  $21.25
          Convertible  Exchangeable  Preferred Stock ("Senior  Preferred Stock")
          commencing  with the dividend that  normally  would have been declared
          during  December,  1995 through the dividend that would  normally have
          been declared  during June, 1997 for a total arrearage of $37.1875 per
          share (or $3.71875 per depositary  share) which aggregates  $3,718,750
          to date.  While these  dividends have not been declared or paid,  they
          have been fully accrued in accordance with the "cumulative" feature of
          the stock.
