ITEM 1. BUSINESS
- ------------------
General
Perini Corporation and its subsidiaries (the "Company" unless the
context indicates otherwise) provides general contracting, including building
and civil construction, and construction management and design-build services to
private clients and public agencies throughout the United States and selected
overseas locations. The Company is also engaged in real estate development
operations which are conducted by Perini Land & Development Company, a
wholly-owned subsidiary with offices in Arizona, Georgia and Massachusetts. The
Company was incorporated in 1918 as a successor to businesses which had been
engaged in providing construction services since 1894.
Because the Company's results consist in part of a limited number of
large transactions in both construction and real estate, results in any given
fiscal quarter can vary depending on the timing of transactions and the
profitability of the projects being reported. As a consequence, quarterly
results may reflect such variations.
Information on lines of business and foreign business is included under
the following captions of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1997.

</TABLE>
Construction
The general contracting and construction management services provided
by the Company consist of planning and scheduling the manpower, equipment,
materials and subcontractors required for the timely completion of a project in
accordance with the terms and specifications contained in a construction
contract. The Company was engaged in over 160 construction projects in the
United States and overseas during 1997. The Company has two principal
construction operations: building and civil.
The civil operation undertakes large heavy construction projects
throughout the United States, with current emphasis on major metropolitan areas
such as Boston, New York City, Chicago and Los Angeles. The civil operation
performs construction and rehabilitation of highways, subways, tunnels, dams,
bridges, airports, marine projects, piers and waste water treatment facilities.
The Company has been active in civil operations since 1894, and believes that it
has particular expertise in large and complex projects. The Company believes
that infrastructure rehabilitation is, and will continue to be, a significant
market in the late 1990's and beyond.
The building operation provides its services through regional offices
located in several metropolitan areas: Boston and Philadelphia, serving New
England and the Mid-Atlantic area; Detroit, operating in Michigan and the
Midwest region; and Phoenix and Las Vegas, serving Arizona, Nevada and
California. In 1992, the Company combined its building operations into a new
wholly-owned subsidiary, Perini Building Company, Inc. This new company combines
substantial resources and expertise to better serve clients within the building
construction market, and enhances Perini's name recognition in this market. The
Company undertakes a broad range of building construction projects including
hotels, casinos, health care, correctional facilities, sports complexes,
residential, commercial, civic, cultural and educational facilities.
Perini Management Services, Inc. (formerly Perini International
Corporation), a wholly-owned subsidiary, provides a broad range of both civil
and building construction services to U.S. government agencies in the U.S. and
selected overseas locations, funded primarily in U.S. dollars. In selected
situations, it pursues other work internationally.

<PAGE>
Construction Strategy
The Company plans to continue to increase the amount of civil
construction work it performs because of the relatively higher margin
opportunities available from such work. The Company believes the best
opportunities for growth in the coming years are in the urban infrastructure
market, particularly in Boston, metropolitan New York, Los Angeles and other
major cities where it has a significant presence, and in other large, complex
projects. The Company's strategy in building construction is to maximize profit
margins; to take advantage of certain market niches; and to expand into new
markets compatible with its expertise. Internally, the Company plans to continue
both to strengthen its management through management development and job
rotation programs, and to improve efficiency through strict attention to the
control of overhead expenses and implementation of improved project management
systems. Finally, the Company continues to expand its expertise to assist public
owners to develop necessary facilities through creative public/private ventures.
During 1996, the Company also adopted a plan to enhance the
profitability of its construction operations by emphasizing gross margin and
bottom line improvement ahead of top line revenue growth. This plan calls for
the Company to focus its financial and human resources on construction
operations which are consistently profitable and to de-emphasize marginal
business units. During 1997, the Company closed or downsized and refocused four
business units and combined its two remaining civil construction entities (U.S.
Heavy and Metropolitan New York divisions) under a consolidated management
structure named "Perini Civil".
Backlog
As of December 31, 1997 the Company's construction backlog was $1.31
billion compared to backlogs of $1.52 billion and $1.53 billion as of December
31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

</TABLE>
The Company includes a construction project in its backlog at such time
as a contract is awarded or a firm letter of commitment is obtained. As a
result, the backlog figures are firm, subject only to the cancellation
provisions contained in the various contracts. The Company estimates that
approximately $536 million of its backlog will not be completed in 1998.
The Company's backlog in the Northeast region of the United States
remains strong because of its ability to meet the needs of the growing
infrastructure construction and rehabilitation market in this region,
particularly in the metropolitan Boston and New York City areas. The continued
increase in backlog in the Southwest region is indicative of the increased
demand by the hotel-casino market in Nevada, while the decrease in backlog in
the Midwest is due, in part, to a downsizing or closing of certain unprofitable
business units. Other fluctuations in backlog are viewed by management as
transitory.

<PAGE>
Types of Contracts
The four general types of contracts in current use in the construction
industry are:
o Fixed price contracts ("FP"), which include unit price contracts,
usually transfer more risk to the contractor but offer the opportunity,
under favorable circumstances, for greater profits. With the Company's
increasing move into publicly bid civil construction projects, the
percentage of fixed price contracts continue to represent the major
portion of the backlog.
o Cost-plus-fixed-fee or award fee contracts ("CPFF") which provide
greater safety for the contractor from a financial standpoint but limit
profits.
o Guaranteed maximum price contracts ("GMP") which provide for a
cost-plus-fee arrangement up to a maximum agreed price. These contracts
place risks on the contractor but may permit an opportunity for greater
profits than cost-plus-fixed-fee contracts through sharing agreements
with the client on any cost savings.
o Construction management contracts ("CM") under which a contractor
agrees to manage a project for the owner for an agreed-upon fee which
may be fixed or may vary based upon negotiated factors. The contractor
generally provides services to supervise and coordinate the
construction work on a project, but does not directly purchase contract
materials, provide construction labor and equipment or enter into
subcontracts.
Historically, a high percentage of company contracts have been of the
fixed price type. Construction management contracts remain a relatively small
percentage of company contracts. A summary of revenues and backlog by type of
contract for the most recent three years follows:

Clients
During 1997, the Company was active in the building, civil and
international construction markets. The Company performed work for over 120
federal, state and local governmental agencies or authorities and private
customers during 1997. No material part of the Company's business is dependent
upon a single or limited number of private customers; the loss of any one of
which would not have a materially adverse effect on the Company. As illustrated
in the following table, the Company continues to serve a significant number of
private owners. During the period 1995-1997, the portion of construction
revenues derived from contracts with various governmental agencies remains
relatively constant at 51% in 1997, 52% in 1996 and 56% in 1995.

All Federal government contracts are subject to termination provisions, but as

contracts.
General
The construction business is highly competitive. Competition is based
primarily on price, reputation for on time completion, quality, reliability and
financial strength of the contractor. While the Company experiences a great deal
of competition from other large general contractors, some of which may be larger
with greater financial resources than the Company, as well as from a number of
smaller local contractors, it believes it has sufficient technical, managerial
and financial resources to be competitive in each of its major market areas.
The Company will endeavor to spread the financial and/or operational
risk, as it has from time to time in the past, by participating in construction
joint ventures, both in a majority and in a minority position, for the purpose
of bidding on projects. These joint ventures are generally based on a standard
joint venture agreement whereby each of the joint venture participants is
usually committed to supply a predetermined percentage of capital, as required,
and to share in the same predetermined percentage of income or loss of the
project. Although joint ventures tend to spread the risk of loss, the Company's
initial obligations to the venture may increase if one of the other participants
is financially unable to bear its portion of cost and expenses. For a possible
example of this situation, see "Legal Proceedings" on page 13. For further
information regarding certain joint ventures, see Note 2 to Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.
While the Company's construction business may experience some adverse
consequences if shortages develop or if prices for materials, labor or equipment
increase excessively, provisions in certain types of contracts often shift all
or a major portion of any adverse impact to the customer. On fixed price type
contracts, the Company attempts to insulate itself from the unfavorable effects
of inflation by incorporating escalating wage and price assumptions, where
appropriate, into its construction bids. Gasoline, diesel fuel and other
materials used in the Company's construction activities are generally available
locally from multiple sources and have been in adequate supply during recent
years. Construction work in selected overseas areas primarily employs expatriate
and local labor which can usually be obtained as required. The Company does not
anticipate any significant impact in 1998 from material and/or labor shortages
or price increases.
Economic and demographic trends tend not to have a material impact on
the Company's civil construction operation. Instead, the Company's civil
construction markets are dependent on the amount of heavy civil infrastructure
work funded by various governmental agencies which, in turn, may depend on the
condition of the existing infrastructure or the need for new expanded
infrastructure. The building markets in which the Company participates are
dependent on economic and demographic trends, as well as governmental policy
decisions as they impact the specific geographic markets.
The Company has minimal exposure to environmental liability as a result
of the activities of Perini Environmental Services, Inc. ("Perini
Environmental"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company that was phased out
during 1997. Perini Environmental provided hazardous waste engineering and
construction services to both private clients and public agencies nationwide.
Perini Environmental was responsible for compliance with applicable laws in
connection with its clean up activities and bore the risk associated with
handling such materials. In addition to strict procedural guidelines for conduct
of this work, the Company and Perini Environmental generally carry insurance or
receive satisfactory indemnification from customers to cover the risks
associated with this business. The Company also owns real estate in seven states
and as an owner, is subject to laws governing environmental responsibility and
liability based on ownership. The Company is not aware of any environmental
liability associated with its ownership of real estate property.
The Company has been subjected to a number of claims from former
employees of subcontractors regarding exposure to asbestos on the Company's
projects. None of the claims have been material. The Company also operates
construction machinery in its business and will, depending on the project or the
ease of access to fuel for
6
<PAGE>
such machinery, install fuel tanks for use on-site. Such tanks run the risk of
leaking hazardous fluids into the environment. The Company, however, is not
aware of any emissions associated with such tanks or of any other significant
environmental liability associated with its construction operations or any of
its corporate activities.
Progress on projects in certain areas may be delayed by weather
conditions depending on the type of project, stage of completion and severity of
the weather. Such delays, if they occur, may result in more volatile quarterly
operating results due to less progress than anticipated being achieved on
projects.
In the normal course of business, the Company periodically evaluates its
existing construction markets and seeks to identify any growing markets where it
feels it has the expertise and management capability to successfully compete or
withdraw from markets which are no longer economically attractive, which it did
during 1997 with two construction divisions in the Midwest and Perini
Environmental referred to above.
Real Estate
The Company's real estate development operations are conducted by Perini
Land & Development Company ("PL&D"), a wholly owned subsidiary, which has been
involved in real estate development since the early 1950's. PL&D has
traditionally engaged in real estate development in Arizona, California,
Florida, Georgia and Massachusetts.
In late 1996, PL&D changed its strategy on certain of its properties
from maximizing value by holding them through the necessary development and
stabilization periods to a new strategy of generating short-term liquidity
through an accelerated disposition or bulk sale. This change in strategy
substantially reduced the estimated future cash flow from these properties.
Therefore, an impairment loss on those properties resulted in PL&D recording a
non-cash charge in an aggregate amount of approximately $80 million as of
December 31, 1996, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of". An estimated allocation of the write-down,
by geographic areas, was California ($59 million), Arizona ($18 million), and
Florida ($3 million).
In early 1998, in its capacity as managing general partner of Rincon
Center Associates ("RCA"), a joint venture which owns Rincon Center, a mixed-use
property in San Francisco (see Real Estate Properties below), PL&D reached a
preliminary agreement, subject to various approvals and further negotiations,
with regard to the refinancing of the obligations on the project. If the
preliminary agreement is implemented, it is expected that RCA may lose all or
most of its beneficial interest in Rincon Center Phase I. In anticipation of the
completion of this transaction, a reserve of $17.2 million against the potential
write-off of a note receivable and other assets related to the Phase I portion
of the project was taken by RCA at December 31, 1997. PL&D's share of that
reserve is $7.8 million, which has been charged to existing reserves it carries
on the project. Based on a current net realizable value analysis, the Company's
investment in RCA will be recoverable from the full development and disposition
of the remaining segments of the property. If the preliminary refinancing
agreement is completed as currently proposed, all guarantees provided by RCA,
its partners and the Company, under the existing master lease covering Rincon
Phase I, would be released at that time in association with the termination of
the master lease.
PL&D will continue periodically to review its portfolio to assess the
desirability of accelerating its sales through price concessions or sale at an
earlier stage of development. In circumstances in which asset strategies are
changed, such as in 1997, and properties brought to market on an accelerated
basis, those assets, if necessary, are adjusted to reflect the lower of carrying
amounts or fair value less cost to sell. Similarly, if the long term outlook for
a property in development or held for future sale is adversely changed, the
Company will adjust its carrying value to reflect such an impairment in value.
To achieve full value for some of its real estate holdings, in
particular its investments in Rincon Center, PL&D may have to hold that property
several years and currently intends to do so.
7
<PAGE>
Real Estate Strategy
Since 1990, PL&D has taken a number of steps to reduce the size of its
operations. In early 1990, all new real estate investment was suspended pending
market improvement, all but critical capital expenditures were curtailed on
on-going projects, and PL&D's work force was substantially reduced. Certain
project loans were extended, with such extensions usually requiring pay downs
and increased annual amortization of the remaining loan balance. Since that
time, PL&D has operated with a further reduced staff and has adjusted its
activity to meet the demands of the market. PL&D currently has offices in
Arizona, Georgia and Massachusetts.
PL&D's real estate development project mix includes planned community,
industrial park, commercial office, multi-unit residential, urban mixed use and
single family home developments. PL&D's emphasis is on the sale of completed
product and also developing the projects in its inventory with the highest near
term sales potential. It may also selectively seek new development opportunities
in which it serves as development manager with limited equity exposure, if any.
Real Estate Properties
The following is a description of the Company's major development
projects and properties by geographic area:
Florida
West Palm Beach and Palm Beach County - At Metrocentre, a 51-acre
commercial/office park which provides for 570,500 square feet of mixed
commercial uses at the intersection of Interstate 95 and 45th Street in West
Palm Beach, no property was sold in 1997. The park consists of 17 parcels, of
which 5 acres currently remain unsold.
Massachusetts
Perini Land and Development or Paramount Development Associates, Inc.
("Paramount"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of PL&D, own the following projects:
Raynham Woods Commerce Center, Raynham - In 1987, Paramount acquired a
409-acre site located in Raynham, Massachusetts. During 1988, Paramount
completed infrastructure work on a major portion of the site (330 acres) which
is being developed as a mixed use corporate campus style park known as "Raynham
Woods Commerce Center". From 1989 through 1995, Paramount sold an aggregate of
56 acres to various users, including the division of a major U.S. company for
use as its headquarters, to a developer who was working with a major national
retailer for a retail site, and to a major insurance company. In 1990, Paramount
built two commercial buildings in the park which are currently approximately 95%
occupied. The park is planned to eventually contain 2.5 million square feet of
office, R&D, light industrial and mixed commercial space. No sales were closed
in 1997. However, a sale of the two commercial buildings is under contract and
expected to close in early 1998.
Easton Business Center, Easton - In 1989, Paramount acquired a 40-acre
site in Easton, Massachusetts, which already had been partially developed.
Paramount completed the work and is currently marketing the site to
commercial/industrial users. No sales were closed in 1997.
Wareham - In early 1990, Paramount acquired an 18.9-acre parcel of land
at the junction of Routes 495 and 58 in Wareham, Massachusetts. The property is
being marketed to both retail and commercial/industrial users. No sales were
closed in 1997.

<PAGE>
Georgia
The Villages at Lake Ridge, Clayton County - During 1987, PL&D (49%)
entered into a joint venture with 138 Joint Venture partners to develop a
348-acre planned commercial and residential community in Clayton County called
"The Villages at Lake Ridge," six miles south of Atlanta's Hartsfield
International Airport. The development plan calls for mixed residential
densities of apartments and moderate priced single-family homes totaling 1,158
dwelling units in the residential tracts, plus 220,000 square feet of retail and
220,000 square feet of office space in the commercial tracts. Since its
acquisition, the joint venture has put in a substantial portion of the
infrastructure, all of the recreational amenities, and through 1996 had sold 293
single family lots to builders , along with a 13.6 acre tract designed for 52
lots, a 16-acre parcel for use as an elementary school and developed a 278 unit
apartment complex which it later sold to a third party buyer. In 1997 the joint
venture sold an additional 19 lots to builders, an 8.7 acre tract designed for
36 lots and 2.9 acres of commercial property.
California
Rincon Center, San Francisco - Major construction on this mixed-use
project in downtown San Francisco was completed in 1989. The project,
constructed in two phases, consists of 320 residential units, approximately
423,000 square feet of office space, 63,000 square feet of retail space, and a
700-space parking garage. Following its completion in 1988, the first phase of
the project was sold and leased back by the developing partnership. The first
phase consists of about 223,000 square feet of office space and 42,000 square
feet of retail space. The Phase I office space is 100% leased with the regional
telephone directory company as the major tenant on a lease which runs to 2002.
The retail space is currently 97% leased. Phase II of the project, which began
operations in late 1989, consists of approximately 200,000 square feet of office
space, 21,000 square feet of retail space, a 14,000 square foot U.S. postal
facility, and 320 apartment units. Currently, 100% of the office space, 70% of
the retail space and 98% of the 320 residential unit are leased. The major
tenant in the office space in Phase II is a large national insurance company
which occupies 173,000 square feet. PL&D currently holds a 46% interest in, and
is managing general partner of, the partnership which developed the project. The
land related to this project is being leased from the U.S. Postal Service under
a ground lease which expires in 2050.
Two major loans on this property, in aggregate totaling over $75
million, were scheduled to mature in 1993. During 1993, both loans were extended
for five additional years. To extend these loans, PL&D provided approximately $6
million in new funds which were used to reduce the principal balances of the
loans. Between 1993 and 1998, PL&D has continued to provide funding used to
further amortize these loans. Both loans mature again in 1998. In late 1997, as
part of the agreement to extend the letter of credit which supports the tax
exempt bonds, PL&D allowed the lender to call the $3.65 million letter of credit
provided as support for the Rincon Phase II commercial loan and apply the
proceeds against the commercial loan balance. Rincon Center Associates has
reached a preliminary agreement for the restructure of the Rincon financing
which will , if completed, extend the Rincon Center Phase II loans until late
2000. As part of the restructure, Rincon Center Associates would be required to
make additional principal and interest payments early in 1998 and relinquish all
or most of its economic interest in Rincon Center Phase I, such relinquished
interests being derived from the terms of the master lease documents which would
be terminated at the closing of the transaction. Based on Company forecasts,
PL&D may be required to contribute as much as $7.2 million in 1998. However,
based on the completion of the refinancing, the cash flow expectations for the
property after 1998 are significantly improved from prior years.
In addition to the project financing and guarantees disclosed in Note 11
to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company has advanced
approximately $89.2 million to the partnership through December 31, 1997, of
which approximately $7.1 million was advanced during 1997, primarily to pay down
some of the principal portion of project debt which was renegotiated during
1993. During 1993 PL&D agreed, if necessary, to lend Pacific Gateway Properties
(PGP), the other General Partner in the project, funds to meet its 20% share of
cash calls. In return, PL&D receives a priority return from the partnership on
those funds and penalty fees in the form of rights to certain distributions due
PGP by the partnership controlling Rincon. From 1993-1997, PL&D advanced $5.4
million under this agreement, primarily to meet the principal payment
obligations of the loan extensions
9
<PAGE>
described above. These funds advanced as loans to PGP are in addition to the
advances described above.
The interest rates on much of the debt financing covering Rincon Center
are variable based on various rate indices. With the exception of approximately
$14 million of the financing, none of the debt has been hedged or capped and is
subject to market fluctuations. From time to time, the Company reviews the costs
and anticipated benefits from hedging Rincon Center's interest rate commitments.
Based on current costs to further hedge rate increases and market conditions,
the Company has elected not to provide any additional hedges at this time.
As part of the Rincon Center Phase I sale and operating lease-back
transaction, the lease provides that if an additional financial commitment to
replace at least $33 million of long-term financing has not been arranged by
January 1, 1998, the lessee will be deemed to have made an offer to purchase the
property for a stipulated amount of approximately $18.8 million in excess of the
then outstanding debt. An arrangement has been made to delay this event to allow
the parties to arrange for the financial restructuring as described above.
The Resort at Squaw Creek - Early in 1997, PL&D signed a letter of
intent to sell its interest in the joint venture through which the Company held
its ownership interest in the Resort. Based on the proposed transaction, the
Company took a write down on this project of approximately $57 million at the
end of 1996. The transaction closed in the second quarter of 1997.
Corte Madera, Marin County - After many years of intensive planning,
PL&D obtained approval for a 151 single-family home residential development on
its 85-acre site in Corte Madera and, in 1991, was successful in gaining water
rights for the property. In 1992, PL&D initiated development on the site which
was continued into 1993. This development is one of the last remaining in-fill
areas in southern Marin County. In 1993, when PL&D decided to scale back its
operations in California, it also decided to sell this development in a
transaction which closed in early 1994. The transaction calls for PL&D to get
the majority of its funds from the sale of residential units or upon the sixth
anniversary of the sale whichever takes place first, and, although indemnified,
to leave in place certain bonds and other assurances previously given to the
town of Corte Madera guaranteeing performance in compliance with approvals
previously obtained. Sale of the units began in August of 1995 and by the end of
1996, 39 sales were closed. During 1997, another 37 closings were recorded.
Arizona
Airport Commerce Center, Tucson - In 1982, the I-10 partnership
purchased 112 acres of industrially-zoned property near the Tucson International
Airport. During 1983, the partnership added 54 acres to that project, bringing
its total size to 166 acres. The partnership built and fully leased a 14,600
square foot office/warehouse building in 1987 on a building lot in the park,
which was sold during 1991. From 1990 through 1996, the partnership sold 73
acres within the park. In 1997 PL&D sold its remaining interest in the project
to its partner.
Perini Central Limited Partnership, Phoenix - In 1985, PL&D (75%)
entered into a joint venture with the Central United Methodist Church to master
plan and develop approximately 4.4 acres of the church's property in midtown
Phoenix. In 1990, the project was successfully rezoned to permit development of
580,000 square feet of office, 37,000 square feet of retail and 162 luxury
apartments. In early 1998, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the
property.
Grove at Black Canyon, Phoenix - The project consists of an office park
complex on a 30-acre site located off of Black Canyon Freeway, a major Phoenix
artery, approximately 20 minutes from downtown Phoenix. When complete, the
project will include approximately 650,000 square feet of office, hotel,
restaurant and/or retail space. Development, which began in 1986, is scheduled
to proceed in phases as market conditions dictate. In 1987, a 150,000 square
foot office building was completed within the park. The building leased up
immediately and maintained an average occupancy in the low 90% range until late
1997. The building is now 65% leased with approximately half of the building
leased to a major area utility company. The partnership is currently in
10
<PAGE>
negotiations with two major tenants that, if successful, would bring the
occupancy level to 95%. During 1993, PL&D (50%) successfully restructured the
financing on the project by obtaining a seven year extension with some
amortization and a lower fixed interest rate. The annual amortization commitment
is not currently covered by operating cash flow. In the near term, it appears
approximately $700,000 per year of support to cover loan amortization will
continue to be required. In 1996, the lease covering space occupied by the major
office tenant was extended an additional seven years to the year 2004 on
competitive terms. In 1995, a day care center was completed on an 8-acre site
along the north entrance of the park. In 1997, a 1.5 acre site was sold to a
local small business for development of an owner occupied office building and a
2.7 acre site was sold to a national hotel chain for development of an
all-suites hotel. Both projects broke ground in the latter part of the year.
Sabino Springs Country Club, Tucson - During 1990, the Tucson Board of
Supervisors unanimously approved a plan for this 410-acre residential golf
course community close to the foothills on the east side of Tucson. In 1991,
that approval, which had been challenged, was affirmed by the Arizona Supreme
Court. When fully developed, the project will consist of 496 single-family
homes. In 1993, PL&D recorded the master plat on the project and sold a major
portion of the property to an international real estate company. An 18-hole
Robert Tent Jones, Jr. designed championship golf course and clubhouse were
completed within the project in 1995. Although it will require some
infrastructure development before sale, PL&D still retains 33 estate lots for
sale in future years.
General
The Company's real estate business is influenced by both economic
conditions and demographic trends. A depressed economy may result in lower real
estate values and longer absorption periods. Higher inflation rates may increase
the values of current properties, but often are accompanied by higher interest
rates which may result in a slow down in property sales because of higher
carrying costs. Important demographic trends are population and employment
growth. A significant reduction in either of these may result in lower real
estate prices and longer absorption periods.
Generally, there has been no material impact on PL&D's real estate
development operations over the past 10 years due to interest rate increases.
However, an extreme and prolonged rise in interest rates could create market
resistance for all real estate operations in general, and is always a potential
market obstacle. Historically, PL&D has, in some cases, employed hedges or caps
to protect itself against increases in interest rates on any of its variable
rate debt. The future use of such hedges or caps is somewhat restricted under
the terms of the New Credit Agreement.
Because several of the Company's real estate projects have been written
down to net realizable value, future gross profits from real estate sales will
be minimal, which has been the case during the three year period ended December
31, 1997.
Insurance and Bonding
All of the Company's properties and equipment, both directly owned or
owned through partnerships or joint ventures with others, are covered by
insurance and management believes that such insurance is adequate.
In conjunction with its construction business, the Company is often
required to provide various types of surety bonds. The Company has a co-surety
arrangement with three sureties, one of which it has dealt with for over 75
years, and it has never been refused a bond. Although from time-to-time the
surety industry encounters limitations affecting the bondability of very large
projects and the Company occasionally has encountered limits imposed by its
surety, these limits have not had an adverse impact on its operations.
Year 2000
The Company began a project to review all of its computer systems during
1995. Among the many considerations at that time was what impact, if any, would
the year 2000 have on computer systems. During 1997,
11
<PAGE>
the Company made a commitment to purchase and install new computer systems to
meet its current and projected needs. In addition to providing new fully
integrated on line construction specific systems applications, the software
complies with the year 2000 requirement.
The process of implementing the new software package began in 1997 and was
completed early in 1998. Management believes that due to the implementation of
this new software package, the year 2000 issue will not have a material adverse
impact on the Company's operations.
Employees
The total number of personnel employed by the Company is subject to
seasonal fluctuations, the volume of construction in progress and the relative
amount of work performed by subcontractors. During 1997 the maximum number of
employees employed was approximately 2,200 and the minimum was approximately
1,900.
The Company operates as a union contractor. As such, it is a signatory
to numerous local and regional collective bargaining agreements, both directly
and through trade associations, throughout the country. These agreements cover
all necessary union crafts and are subject to various renewal dates. Estimated
amounts for wage escalation related to the expiration of union contracts are
included in the Company's bids on various projects and, as a result, the
expiration of any union contract in the current fiscal year is not expected to
have any material impact on the Company.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
- --------------------------
As previously reported, the Company is a party to an action entitled
Mergentime Corporation et. al. v. Washington Metropolitan Transit Authority v.
Insurance Company of North America (Civil Action No. 89-1055) in the U.S.
District Court for the District of Columbia. The action involves WMATA's
termination of the general contractor, a joint venture in which the Company was
a minority partner, on two contracts to construct a portion of the Washington,
D.C. subway system, and certain claims by the joint venture against WMATA for
claimed delays and extra work.
On July 30, 1993, the Court upheld the termination for default, and
found both joint venturers and their surety jointly and severally liable to
WMATA for damages in the amount of $16.5 million, consisting primarily of
WMATA's excess reprocurement costs, but specifically deferred ruling on the
amount of the joint venture's claims against WMATA. Since the other joint
venture partner may be unable to meet its financial obligations under the award,
the Company could be liable for the entire amount.
At the direction of the judge now presiding over the action, during the
third quarter of 1995, the parties submitted briefs on the issue of WMATA's
liability on the joint venture's claims for delays and for extra work. As a
result of that process, 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 has
appealed the decision. As a result of the decision, there is no immediate impact
on the Company's Statement of Operations 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.
In the ordinary course of its construction business, the Company is
engaged in other lawsuits, arbitration and alternative dispute resolution
("ADR") proceedings. The Company believes that such proceedings are usually
unavoidable in major construction operations and that their resolution will not
materially affect its results of future operations and financial position.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Results of Operations -
1997 Compared to 1996
The Company's total operations resulted in net income of $5.4 million (or $.01
per Common Share) in 1997 compared to a net loss of $70.6 million (or $15.13 per
Common Share) in 1996. The improvement in 1997 results compared to 1996 is
substantially due to the non-recurring non-cash write-down in 1996 related to a
change in the Company's real estate strategy for certain properties from
maximizing value by holding them through the necessary development and
stabilization periods to a new strategy of generating short-term liquidity
through an accelerated disposition or bulk sale (see Notes 1(d) and 4 to Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements).
Revenues amounted to $1.324 billion in 1997, a record level for the third
consecutive year, an increase of $54.2 million (or 4.3%), compared to 1996
revenues of $1.270 billion. This increase resulted primarily from increased
construction revenues of $51.6 million (or $4.2%) from $1.224 billion in 1996 to
$1.276 billion in 1997, due primarily to an increase in revenues from building
construction operations of $53.9 million (or 6.5%), from $834.9 million in 1996
to $888.8 million in 1997, which more than offset a slight decrease in revenues
from civil construction operations of $2.3 million (or 0.6%), from $389.5
million in 1996 to $387.2 million 1997. These revenue fluctuations reflect the
timing in the start-up of new construction projects, in particular several fast
track hotel/casino projects in the Southwestern United States, several
prison/detention and medical facilities projects in the Northeastern United
States, and several long-term infrastructure rehabilitation projects in the
metropolitan New York, Boston and Los Angeles areas. Revenues from real estate
operations increased $2.6 million , from $45.9 million in 1996 to $48.5 million
in 1997 because of revenues related to the sale of the Company's interest in The
Resort at Squaw Creek.
Gross profit increased by $74.3 million, from a loss of $25.4 million in 1996 to
a profit of $48.9 million in 1997 due to the 1996 non-recurring $79.9 million
real estate write-down. After adjusting for the 1996 real estate write-down, the
pro forma gross profit actually decreased by $5.6 million in 1997, from $54.5
million in 1996 to $48.9 million in 1997, in spite of the increase in revenues
described above, due primarily to a $5.2 million decrease in gross profit from
construction operations, from $55.4 million in 1996 to $50.2 million in 1997
because the increased profits related to the increase in construction revenues
was more than offset by additional write-downs related to contracts from two
unprofitable Midwest construction divisions, which are being closed. The impact
of these write-downs were partially offset by an approximate $3.2 million gain
from the sale of the Company's interest in two joint ventures (see Note 14 to
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements). The gross loss from real estate
operations was $1.3 million in 1997 compared to an adjusted gross loss of $0.9
million in 1996.
General, administrative and selling expenses decreased by $3.4 million (or 10%),
from $34.0 million in 1996 to $30.6 million in 1997 primarily due to the closing
out of two construction divisions in the Midwest and Perini Environmental
Services, Inc., its wholly-owned hazardous waste subsidiary.
Other income (expense), net increased $1.2 million, from a net expense of $0.5
million in 1996 to a net expense of $1.7 million in 1997 due primarily to
increased amortization of deferred debt expense related to the new credit
agreement, a $0.4 million decrease in gains on sales of fixed assets, and a $0.3
million decrease in minority interest.
Interest expense increased by $0.4 million (or 4%), from $9.9 million in 1996 to
$10.3 million in 1997 due to a higher average level of borrowings during 1997.
The lower than normal tax rate for the three year period ended December 31, 1997
is due to the utilization of tax loss carryforwards 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. As a result, an amount estimated to be approximately $75.0 million of
future pretax earnings should benefit from minimal, if any, federal tax charges.
The net deferred tax assets reflect management's estimate of the amount that
will, more likely than not,
15
<PAGE>
be realized (see Note 5 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
Results of Operations -
1996 Compared to 1995
In spite of record revenues and earnings from domestic construction operations
during 1996, the Company's total operations resulted in a net loss of $70.6
million (or $15.13 per Common Share) on revenues of $1.3 billion in 1996
compared to a net loss of $27.6 million in 1995 (or $6.38 per Common Share) on
revenues of $1.1 billion. The reason for the net loss in 1996 was a change in
the Company's real estate strategy on certain of its properties from maximizing
value by holding them through the necessary development and stabilization
periods to a new strategy of generating short-term liquidity through an
accelerated disposition or bulk sale. The change in strategy substantially
reduced the estimated future cash flows from these properties. Therefore, a
non-cash impairment loss on those properties, in the aggregate amount of $79.9
million, was provided in 1996 in accordance with SFAS No. 121 (see Notes (1)(d)
and 4 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
Revenues amounted to $1.270 billion in 1996, a record level for the second
consecutive year, an increase of $169 million (or 15%) compared to the 1995
revenues of $1.101 billion. This increase was almost entirely due to an increase
in construction revenues of $167 million (or 16%), from $1.057 billion in 1995
to $1.224 billion in 1996. This increase in construction revenues was divided
fairly equally between building and heavy (or "civil") construction operations.
Building construction revenues increased $87 million (or 12%), from $748 million
in 1995 to $835 million in 1996 while civil construction revenues increased $80
million (or 26%), from $309 million in 1995 to $389 million in 1996. These
revenue increases reflect the impact of several fast track hotel/casino projects
in the western and midwestern United States, several prison/detention and
medical facilities projects in the northeastern United States, and several
long-term infrastructure rehabilitation projects in the metropolitan New York,
Boston and Los Angeles areas.
In spite of the 15% increase in revenues, the gross profit decreased $40.3
million, from a gross profit of $14.9 million in 1995 to a gross loss of $25.4
million in 1996. The primary reason for the gross loss in 1996 was the $79.9
million real estate write down referred to above which caused the increase in
gross loss from real estate from $1.0 million in 1995 to $80.9 million in 1996.
This increase in gross loss was partially offset by a substantial increase in
gross profit from construction operations of $39.6 million, from $15.9 million
in 1995 to $55.5 million in 1996. Overall gross profit margins on both building
and civil construction operations in 1996 exceeded those experienced in 1995.
The lower than normal gross profit from construction operations recognized in
1995 included a pretax charge, which aggregated $25.6 million, to provide for a
liability related to previously disclosed litigation in Washington, D.C. (see
Note 11 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements), and downward revisions
in estimated probable recoveries on certain outstanding contract claims. These
pretax charges in 1995, coupled with the increased construction revenues in 1996
referred to above, including the favorable profit impact in 1996 of several
large infrastructure projects, primarily in the metropolitan New York, Boston
and Los Angeles areas, resulted in the substantial increase in gross profit from
construction operations in 1996.
General, administrative and selling expenses decreased by $3.3 million (or 9%),
from $37.3 million in 1995 to $34.0 million in 1996 due primarily to continued
emphasis on reducing overall overhead expenses in conjunction with the Company's
re-engineering efforts commenced in prior years, the sale in June of 1996 of
Pioneer Construction, a former subsidiary of the Company located in West
Virginia, and the continuation of the gradual down-sizing of the Company's real
estate and environmental remediation construction operations.
Other income (expense), net decreased $1.3 million, from income of $.8 million
in 1995 to a loss of $.5 million in 1996 primarily due to higher bank charges
experienced in 1996 in conjunction with the Company's renegotiation of certain
provisions of its Revolving Credit Agreement and Bridge Loan Agreement and, to a
lesser degree, a reduction in gains from the sale of certain underutilized
operating facilities and less interest income.
Interest expense increased by $1.3 million (or 15%), from $8.6 million in 1995
to $9.9 million in 1996 due to a higher average level of borrowings during 1996.
16
<PAGE>
The Company recognized income tax expense for the year ending December 31, 1996
of $.8 million on a pretax loss of $69.8 million, whereas in 1995, the Company
recognized a tax benefit of $2.6 million on a pretax loss of $30.2 million. The
1996 income tax expense is primarily for state income taxes relating to certain
jurisdictions in which the Company had net taxable income. The Company did not
provide any federal tax benefit in 1996, whereas in 1995, a partial tax benefit
was provided on the Company's pretax loss, due to certain accounting
limitations.
Financial Condition
Cash and Working Capital
During 1997, the Company provided $12.7 million in cash from operating
activities, primarily from proceeds related to the sale of The Resort at Squaw
Creek, and $14.6 million in cash from financing transactions, due to the net
proceeds received on the sale of Series B Preferred Stock less paydowns of
long-term debt. These funds were used for investing activities ($5.7 million)
primarily for joint ventures and to increase the cash on hand by $21.6 million.
During 1996, the Company used $24.3 million in cash for operating activities,
primarily for changes in working capital, and $21.1 million for investment
activities, primarily to fund construction and real estate joint ventures. These
uses of cash were provided by $21.6 million from financing activities, primarily
increases in borrowings under the Company's Revolving Credit and Bridge Loan
facilities, and a $19.3 million reduction in cash on hand.
During 1995, the Company provided $24.6 million in cash from operating
activities, primarily due to an overall increase in accounts payable and
advances from joint ventures; $9.0 million from financing activities due to an
increase in borrowings under its revolving credit facility; and $23.9 million
from cash distributions from certain joint ventures. These increases in cash
were used to increase cash on hand by $21.2 million, with the balance used for
various investment activities, primarily to fund construction and real estate
joint ventures.
Since 1990, the Company has paid down $45.6 million of real estate debt on
wholly-owned real estate projects (from $50.9 million to $5.3 million),
utilizing proceeds from sales of property and general corporate funds.
Similarly, real estate joint venture debt has been reduced by $167 million over
the same period. As a result, the Company has reached a point at which revenues
from further real estate sales that, in the past, have been largely used to
retire real estate debt will be increasingly available to improve general
corporate liquidity subject to certain restrictions contained in the New Credit
Agreement referred to in Note 3 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
With the exception of a major property referred to in Note 11 to Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements, this trend should continue over the next
several years with debt on projects often being fully repaid prior to full
project sell-out. In addition, the Company made a strategic decision in the
early 1990's to change its mix of construction work by increasing the relative
percentage of potentially higher margin civil construction projects. The working
capital required to support civil construction projects is substantially more
than the normal building construction project because of its equipment intensive
nature, progress billing terms imposed by certain public owners and, in some
instances, time required to process contract change orders. The Company has
addressed these problems by relying on corporate borrowings, extending certain
maturing real estate loans (with such extensions usually requiring pay downs and
increased annual amortization of the remaining loan balance), suspending the
acquisition of new real estate inventory, significantly reducing development
expenses on certain projects, utilizing stock in payment of certain expenses,
utilizing cash internally generated from operations and selling its interest in
certain engineering and construction business units that were not an integral
part of the Company's ongoing building and civil construction operations. The
Company also implemented company-wide cost reduction programs in the early
1990's, and which are ongoing, to improve long-term financial results and
suspended the dividend on its Common Stock during the fourth quarter of 1990 and
suspended payment of dividends on its $21.25 Convertible Exchangeable Preferred
Stock in the first quarter of 1996. Also, the Company increased the aggregate
amount available under its revolving credit agreement during the period from $70
million to $114.5 million at December 31, 1997. In addition to internally
generated funds, at December 31, 1997, the Company has $31.5 million available
under its revolving credit facility. The financial covenants to which the
Company is subject include minimum levels of working capital, debt/net worth
ratio, net worth level, interest coverage and certain restrictions on real
estate investments, all as defined in the loan documents. Although the Company
would have been in violation of certain of the covenants during 1997, it
17
<PAGE>
obtained waivers of such violations. 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 issuance of $30 million in Redeemable
Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (see Note 7 to Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements) and the New Credit Agreement referred to in
Note 3 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Also, during 1997, the
Company made substantial progress on a strategy adopted at the end of 1996 that
called for liquidating certain real estate assets which were written down at
that time, resolving several major construction claims and minimizing overhead
expenses.
The working capital current ratio increased to 1.31:1 at the end of 1997,
compared to 1.19:1 at the end of 1996 and compared to 1.12:1 at the end of 1995.
Of the total working capital of $72.0 million at the end of 1997, approximately
$14.6 million may not be converted to cash within the next 12 to 18 months.
Long-term Debt
Long-term debt was $84.9 million at the end of 1997, a decrease of $12.0 million
compared with $96.9 million at the end of 1996, which was an increase of $12.7
million compared with $84.2 million at the end of 1995. The ratio of long-term
debt to equity increased from 0.80:1 at the end of 1995 to 2.72:1 at the end of
1996 and decreased to 2.08:1 at the end of 1997 due primarily to the negative
impact on equity of the net losses experienced by the Company in 1995 and 1996
and the net income in 1997.
Stockholders' Equity
The Company's book value per Common Share stood at $2.44 at December 31, 1997,
compared to $2.14 per Common Share and $17.06 per Common Share at the end of
1996 and 1995, respectively. The major factors impacting stockholders' equity
during the three-year period under review were the net income in 1997, the net
losses recorded in 1995 and 1996 and, to a lesser extent, Preferred dividends
paid or accrued, and stock issued in partial payment of certain expenses.
At December 31, 1997, there were 1,212 Common stockholders of record based on
the stockholders list maintained by the Company's transfer agent.
Dividends
There were no cash dividends declared or paid on the Company's outstanding
Common Stock during the three years ended December 31, 1997.
During 1995, the Company declared and paid the regular quarterly cash dividends
of $5.3125 per share on the Company's Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Shares
for an annual total of $21.25 per share (equivalent to quarterly dividends of
$.53125 per Depositary Share for an annual total of $2.125 per Depositary
Share). In conjunction with the covenants of the 1995 Amended Revolving Credit
Agreement (see Note 3 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements), the
Company was required to suspend the payment of quarterly dividends on its
Preferred Stock. Therefore, the dividend that normally would have been declared
during December of 1995 and payable on March 15, 1996, as well as subsequent
quarterly dividends in 1996 and 1997, have not been declared or paid (although
they have been fully accrued due to the "cumulative" feature of the Preferred
Stock). A New Credit Agreement, superseding the loan agreements referred to
above, was approved January 17, 1997 and provides that the Company may not pay
cash dividends or make other restricted payments, as defined, prior to September
30, 1998 and thereafter may not pay cash dividends or make other restricted
payments unless: (i) the Company is not in default under the New Credit
Agreement; (ii) commitments under the credit facility have been reduced to less
than $90 million; (iii) restricted payments in any quarter, when added to
restricted payments made in the prior three quarters, do not exceed fifty
percent (50%) of net income from continuing operations for the prior four
quarters; and (iv) net worth (after taking into consideration the amount of the
proposed cash dividend or restricted payment) is at least equal to the amount
shown below, adjusted for non-cash charges incurred in connection with any
disposition or
18
<PAGE>
write-down of any real estate investment, provided that net worth must be at
least $60 million:
Net Worth
---------
(In thousands)
October 1, 1998 to December 30, 1998 $161,977
December 31, 1998 to March 31, 1999 $167,303
April 1, 1999 to June 30, 1999 $170,129
July 1, 1999 to September 30, 1999 $172,955
October 1, 1999 to January 1, 2000 $175,781
For purposes of the New Credit Agreement, net worth shall include the net
proceeds from the sale of the Series B Preferred Stock to the Investors. In
addition, under the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock, the Company may not
pay any cash dividends on its Common Stock until after September 1, 2001, and
then only to the extent such dividends do not exceed in aggregate more than
twenty-five percent (25%) of the Company's consolidated net income available for
distribution to Common shareholders (after Preferred dividends); provided,
however, that the Company shall have elected and paid cash dividends on the
Series B Preferred Stock for the preceding four quarters.
The Board of Directors intends to resume payment of dividends as the Company
satisfies the terms of the New Credit Agreement, the provisions of the Series B
Preferred Stock and the Board deems it prudent to do so.
Outlook
Looking ahead, the overall construction backlog at the end of 1997 was $1.309
billion, down 14% from the 1996 year end backlog of $1.518 billion. This
decrease primarily reflects suspension of work acquisition in certain divisions
that are being closed. This backlog has a good balance between building and
civil work and a relatively high overall estimated profit margin. Approximately
56% of the current backlog relates to building construction projects which
generally represent lower risk, lower margin work, and approximately 44% of the
current backlog relates to heavy construction projects which generally represent
higher risk, but correspondingly potentially higher margin work. During 1996,
the Company also adopted a plan to enhance the profitability of its construction
operations by emphasizing gross margin and bottom line improvement ahead of top
line revenue growth. This plan called for the Company to focus its financial and
human resources on construction operations which are consistently profitable and
to de-emphasize marginal business units. Consistent with that Plan, the Company
closed or downsized and refocused four business units during 1997. The Company
believes the outlook for its building and civil construction businesses
continues to be promising.
Because several of the Company's real estate projects have been written down to
net realizable value, future gross profits from real estate sales will be
minimal, which has been the case during the three year period ended December 31,
1997. A major objective for 1998 is the renegotiation and extension of debt at
Rincon Center (see Note 11 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
With the receipt of $30 million from the sale of its Redeemable Series B
Preferred Stock and the New Credit Agreement both becoming effective on January
17, 1997, the Company's near term liquidity position has improved substantially,
enabling payments to vendors to generally be made in accordance with normal
payment terms. In order to generate cash and reduce the Company's dependence on
bank debt to fund the working capital needs of its core construction operations
as well as to lower the Company's substantial interest expense and strengthen
the balance sheet in the longer term, the Company will continue to sell certain
real estate assets as market opportunities present themselves; to actively
pursue the favorable conclusion of various construction claims; to focus new
construction work acquisition efforts on various niche markets and geographic
areas where the Company has a proven history of success; to downsize or close
operations with marginal prospects for success; to continue to restrict the
payment of cash dividends on the Company's $1 par value Common Stock and $2.125
Depositary Convertible
19
<PAGE>
Exchangeable Preferred Stock; and to continue to seek ways to control overhead
expenses. In addition, at the end of 1996 the Company completed a review of all
of its real estate assets which resulted in a change of strategies related to
certain of those assets to a new strategy of generating short-term liquidity.
This resulted in generating cash proceeds in excess of $20 million during 1997
and up to an additional $10 million which may be generated during 1998.
Management believes that cash generated from operations, existing credit lines,
additional borrowings and projected sale of certain real estate assets referred
to above should be adequate to meet the Company's funding requirements for at
least the next twelve months.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Years Ended December 31, 1997, 1996 & 1995
[1] Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
[a] Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Perini
Corporation, its subsidiaries and certain majority-owned real estate joint
ventures (the "Company"). All subsidiaries are currently wholly-owned. All
significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in
consolidation. Non-consolidated joint venture interests are accounted for on the
equity method with the Company's share of revenues and costs in these interests
included in "Revenues" and "Cost of Operations," respectively, in the
accompanying consolidated statements of operations. All significant intercompany
profits between the Company and its joint ventures have been eliminated in
consolidation. Taxes are provided on joint venture results in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes".
[b] Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant
estimates with regard to these financial statements relate to the estimating of
final construction contract profits in accordance with accounting for long-term
contracts (see Note 1(c) below), estimating future cash flows of real estate
development projects (see Note 1(d) below) and estimating potential liabilities
in conjunction with certain contingencies and commitments, as discussed in Note
11 below. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
[c] Method of Accounting for Contracts
Profits from construction contracts and construction joint ventures are
generally recognized by applying percentages of completion for each year to the
total estimated profits for the respective contracts. The percentages of
completion are determined by relating the actual cost of the work performed to
date to the current estimated total cost of the respective contracts. When the
estimate on a contract indicates a loss, the Company's policy is to record the
entire loss. The cumulative effect of revisions in estimates of total cost or
revenue during the course of the work is reflected in the accounting period in
which the facts that caused the revision become known. An amount equal to the
costs attributable to unapproved change orders and claims is included in the
total estimated revenue when realization is probable. Profit from unapproved
change orders and claims is recorded in the year such amounts are resolved.
In accordance with normal practice in the construction industry, the Company
includes in current assets and current liabilities amounts related to
construction contracts realizable and payable over a period in excess of one
year. Unbilled work represents the excess of contract costs and profits
recognized to date on the percentage of completion accounting method over
billings to date on certain contracts. Deferred contract revenue represents the
excess of billings to date over the amount of contract costs and profits
recognized to date on the percentage of completion accounting method on the
remaining contracts.
[d] Methods of Accounting for Real Estate Operations
All real estate sales are recorded in accordance with SFAS No. 66, "Accounting
for Sales of Real Estate". Gross profit is not recognized in full unless the
collection of the sale price is reasonably assured and the Company is not
obliged to perform significant activities after the sale. Unless both conditions
exist, recognition of all or a part of gross profit is deferred.
The gross profit recognized on sales of real estate is determined by relating
the estimated total land, land development and construction costs of each
development area to the estimated total sales value of the property in the
development.

1997, 1996 & 1995 (continued)
[1] Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
[d] Methods of Accounting for Real Estate Operations (continued)
Real estate investments are stated at the lower of the carrying amounts, which
includes applicable interest and real estate taxes during the development and
construction phases, or fair value less cost to sell in accordance with SFAS No.
121 "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to Be Disposed Of". SFAS No. 121 requires that assets to be held and used
be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment has
occurred when the carrying amount of the assets exceed the related undiscounted
future cash flows of a development. SFAS No. 121 also provides that when
management has committed to a plan to dispose of specific real estate assets,
the assets should be reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value
less cost to sell. Estimating future cash flows of a development involves
estimating the current sales value of the development less the estimated costs
of completion (to the stage of completion assumed in determining the selling
price), holding and disposal. Estimated sales values are forecast based on
comparable local sales (where applicable), trends as foreseen by knowledgeable
local commercial real estate brokers or others active in the business and/or
project specific experience such as offers made directly to the Company relating
to the property. If the estimated future cash flows of a development are less
than the carrying amount of a development, SFAS No. 121 requires a provision to
be made to reduce the carrying amount of the development to fair value less cost
to sell. In 1996, the Company changed its strategy with respect to certain real
estate assets which resulted in a write-down that is described in Note 4 below.
[e] Depreciable Property and Equipment
Land, buildings and improvements, construction and computer-related equipment
and other equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided primarily
using accelerated methods for construction and computer-related equipment and
the straight-line method for the remaining depreciable property.
[f] Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the costs of subsidiaries acquired over the
fair value of their net assets as of the dates of acquisition. These amounts are
being amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 years.
[g] Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes," (see Note 5). Deferred income tax assets and
liabilities are recognized for the effects of temporary differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts and the income tax basis of assets and
liabilities using enacted tax rates. In addition, future tax benefits, such as
net operating loss carryforwards, are recognized currently to the extent such
benefits are more likely than not to be realized as an economic benefit in the
form of a reduction of income taxes in future years.
[h] Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share
Earnings (loss) per common share amounts were calculated in accordance with SFAS
No. 128, "Earnings Per Share". Basic earnings (loss) per common share ("EPS")
was computed by dividing net income (loss) less dividend and other requirements
related to Preferred Stock by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share was computed by giving
effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding. The weighted-average
shares used in the diluted earnings (loss) per common share computations were
essentially the same as those used in the basic earnings (loss) per common share
computations (see below). Basic EPS equals diluted EPS for all periods presented
due to the immaterial effect of stock options and the antidilutive effect of
conversion of the Company's Depositary Convertible Exchangeable Preferred
Shares.

[i] Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments with original
maturities of three months or less.
[j] Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to be consistent with the
current year classifications.
[k] Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
During 1997, SFAS No. 129 "Disclosure of Information about Capital" was issued.
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.
During 1997, SFAS No. 130 "Reporting Comprehensive Income" was issued. 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.

[1] Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
[k] Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards (continued)
Also during 1997, SFAS No. 131 "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and
Related Information", which supersedes Statement No. 14 "Financial Reporting for
Segments of a Business Enterprise", was issued. 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 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] Joint Ventures
The Company, in the normal conduct of its business, has entered into partnership
arrangements, referred to as "joint ventures," for certain construction and real
estate development projects. Each of the joint venture participants is usually
committed to supply a predetermined percentage of capital, as required, and to
share in a predetermined percentage of the income or loss of the project.
Summary financial information (in thousands) for construction and real estate
joint ventures accounted for on the equity method for the three years ended
December 31, 1997 follows:

[2] Joint Ventures (continued)
The Company has a centralized cash management arrangement with certain
construction joint ventures in which it is the sponsor. Under this arrangement,
excess cash is controlled by the Company; cash is made available to meet the
individual joint venture requirements, as needed; and interest income is
credited to the ventures at competitive market rates. In addition, certain joint
ventures sponsored by other contractors, in which the Company participates,
distribute cash at the end of each quarter to the participants who will then
return these funds at the beginning of the next quarter. Of the total cash
advanced at the end of 1997 ($29.8 million) and 1996 ($47.5 million),
approximately $20.0 million in 1997 and $25.6 million in 1996 was deemed to be
temporary.

Effective December 12, 1994, the Company entered into a revolving credit
agreement with a group of major banks which provided, among other things, for
the Company to borrow up to an aggregate of $125 million, with a $25 million
maximum of such amount also being available for letters of credit. The Company
could choose from three

interest rate alternatives including a prime-based rate, as well as other
interest rate options based on LIBOR (London inter-bank offered rate) or
participating bank certificate of deposit rates.
The revolving credit agreement, as well as certain other loan agreements,
provided for, among other things, maintaining specified working capital and
tangible net worth levels and, additionally, imposed limitations on indebtedness
and future investment in real estate development projects. During 1996, the
Company would have been in violation of certain of these financial covenants;
however, the Company obtained waivers of any such violations. Effective February
26, 1996, certain modifications were made to the revolving credit agreement
("Amended Revolving Credit Agreement") including, among other things, additional
collateral which consists of all available assets not included as collateral in
other agreements and suspension of payment of the 53 1/8 cent per share
quarterly dividend on the Company's Depositary Convertible Exchangeable
Preferred Shares (see Note 8) until certain financial criteria are met. Also,
effective February 26, 1996, the Company entered into a Bridge Loan Agreement
with its revolver banks to borrow up to an additional $15 million at an interest
rate of prime plus 2%. During November 1996, the Bridge Loan Facility was
temporarily increased by $10 million to allow PB Capital Partners, L.P. ("PB
Capital"), one of the investors in the Company's new Series B Cumulative
Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series B Preferred Stock") (see Note 7 for details
of this transaction), to participate 100% in the additional Bridge Loan by
temporarily loaning $10 million to the Company until such time as the issuance
of the new Series B Preferred Stock was approved by the Company's shareholders.
In connection with this transaction, the Company paid PB Capital a fee of
$400,000 payable in shares of the Company's $1.00 par value Common Stock (47,267
shares) valued at fair market value at the time of the transaction. Concurrent
with the approval of the Series B Preferred Stock by the Company's shareholders
on January 17, 1997, the Company issued its Series B Preferred Stock for
approximately $30 million, repaid the $10 million temporary Bridge Loan from PB
Capital, and entered into a new revolving credit agreement with its bank group
(the "New 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 of the total $129.5
million Credit Facility in the amount of $15.0 million in 1997, $15.0 million in
1998, $12.5 million in 1999 and the balance in 2000. Receipt of 50% of the net
proceeds from real estate sales in excess of $20 million and 80% of net proceeds
from the sale of certain other assets immediately reduce the total commitment
under the Credit Facility and can represent all or part of the decrease on the
scheduled mandatory reduction dates. After the $15.0 million reduction on
December 31, 1997, the total Credit Facility now aggregates $114.5 million. In
consideration of the restructuring of the Credit Facilities, the Bank Group
received fees in the amount of $444,000 and Stock Purchase Warrants enabling the
participating banks to purchase up to 420,000 shares of the Company's Common
Stock, $1.00 par value, at $8.30 per share, the average fair market value of the
stock for the five business days prior to the January 17, 1997 closing, at any
time during the ten year period ended January 17, 2007. The grant date present
value of the Stock Purchase Warrants ($2,233,000) was calculated using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model and was accounted for by an increase in
Stockholders' Equity, with the offset being a valuation account netted against
the related Revolving Credit Loans. The valuation account is being amortized
over the approximate three-year term of the New Credit Agreement, with the
offsetting charge ($745,000 during 1997) being to Other Income (Expense), net.
The remaining unamortized balance is approximately $1,488,000 at December 31,
1997.
The New Credit Agreement provides for, among other things, maintaining specified
working capital and tangible net worth levels, minimum operating cash flow
levels, as defined, limitations on indebtedness and certain limitations on
future cash dividends. In addition, the covenants of the Company's Amended
Revolving Credit Agreement as well as the New Credit Agreement, effective
January 17, 1997, required the Company to suspend the payment of quarterly
dividends on its $21.25 Preferred Stock (equivalent to $2.125 per Depositary
Share) ("$21.25 Preferred

Stock") until certain financial criteria are met (see Note 8).
[4] Write Down of Certain Real Estate Assets
As of December 31, 1996, the Company changed its real estate strategy on certain
of its properties from maximizing value by holding them through the necessary
development and stabilization periods to a new strategy of generating short-term
liquidity through an accelerated disposition or bulk sale. This change in
strategy substantially reduced the estimated future cash flow from those
properties. Therefore, an impairment loss on those properties, in an aggregate
amount of $79.9 million, representing the excess of book value of those
properties over their estimated future cash flow, was provided in the fourth
quarter of 1996 in accordance with SFAS No. 121. An estimated allocation of the
write-down by geographic area was California ($59.9 million), Arizona ($18
million), and Florida ($2 million). Revenues and pretax loss related to these
properties included in the 1996 Statement of Operations were approximately $14.6
million and $.5 million, respectively.
[5] Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109. This
standard determines deferred income taxes based on the estimated future tax
effects of differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets
and liabilities, given the provisions of enacted tax laws.
The (provision) credit for income taxes is comprised of the following (in

A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets to a level
which, more likely than not, will be realized. The net deferred assets reflect
management's estimate of the amount which will be realized from future taxable
income which can be predicted with reasonable certainty.
As a result of not providing any federal income tax benefit in 1996 and only a
partial benefit in 1995, 1997 earnings benefited by approximately $2.1 million
by not having to provide for any Federal income tax and approximately $75
million of future pretax earnings should benefit from minimal, if any, federal
tax provisions.

[7] Redeemable Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock
At a special stockholders' meeting on January 17, 1997, the Company's
stockholders approved two proposals that allowed the Company to close a new
equity transaction with a private investor group led by Richard C. Blum &
Associates, L.P. immediately after the meeting. The transaction included, among
other things, classification by the Board of Directors of 500,000 shares of
Preferred Stock of the Company as Redeemable Series B Cumulative

<PAGE>
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended December 31,

[7] Redeemable Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (continued)
Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share, (the "Series B Preferred
Stock"), issuance of 150,150 shares of Series B Preferred Stock at $200 per
share (or $30 million) to the investor group, (with the remainder of the shares
set aside for possible future payment-in-kind dividends to the holders of the
Series B Preferred Stock), amendments to the Company's By-Laws that redefined
the Executive Committee and added certain powers (generally financial in
nature), including the power to give overall direction to the Company's Chief
Executive Officer, appointment of three new members, recommended by the investor
group, to the Board of Directors, appointment of these same new directors to
constitute a majority of the Executive Committee referred to above and repayment
of the $10 million temporary Bridge Loan referred to in Note 3. Tutor-Saliba
Corporation, a corporation controlled by a newly appointed Director, who is also
a member of the Executive Committee and a newly appointed Officer of the
Company, is a participant in certain construction joint ventures with the
Company (see Note 14 "Related Party Transactions").
Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock are generally payable at an annual
rate of 7% when paid in cash and 10% of the liquidation preference of $200.00
per share when paid in-kind with Series B Preferred Stock compounded on a
quarterly basis. According to the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock, it (i)
ranks junior in cash dividend and liquidation preference to the $21.25
Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock and senior to Common Stock, (ii)
provides that no cash dividends will be paid on any shares of Common Stock
except for certain limited dividends beginning in 2001, (iii) is convertible
into shares of Common Stock at an initial conversion price of approximately
$9.68 per share (equivalent to 3,101,571 shares), (iv) has the same voting
rights as shareholders of Common Stock immediately equal to the number of shares
of Common Stock into which the Series B Preferred Stock can be converted, (v)
generally has a liquidation preference of $200 per share of Series B Preferred
Stock, (vi) is optionally redeemable by the Company after three years at a
redemption price equal to the liquidating value per share and higher amounts if
a Special Default, as defined, has occurred, (vii) is mandatorily redeemable by
the Company if a Special Default has occurred and a holder of the Series B
Preferred Stock requests such a redemption, (viii) is mandatorily redeemable by
the Company for approximately one-third of the shares still outstanding on
January 17, 2005 and one-third of the remaining shares in each of the next two
years.
The initial proceeds ($30,030,000) received upon the issuance of 150,150 Series
B Preferred Shares were reduced by related expenses of approximately $3.5
million. Due to the redeemable feature of the Series B Preferred Stock, this
reduction has to be added back (or accreted) to reinstate its mandatory
redemption value over a period of 8-10 years, with an offsetting charge to
paid-in capital.
Subsequent to January 17, 1997, four quarterly dividends were paid-in-kind which
aggregated 14,150 shares of Series B Preferred Stock at $200.00 per share (or
$2,830,000). An analysis of Series B Preferred Stock transactions for the year
ended December 31, 1997 follows:

[8] Capitalization
(a) $21.25 Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock
("$21.25 Preferred Stock")
In June 1987, net proceeds of approximately $23,631,000 were received
from the sale of 1,000,000 Depositary Convertible Exchangeable Preferred
Shares (each Depositary Share representing ownership of 1/10 of a share
of $21.25 Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock, $1 par value) at a
price of $25 per Depositary Share. Annual dividends are $2.125 per
Depositary Share and are cumulative. Generally, the liquidation
preference value is $25 per Depositary Share plus any accumulated and
unpaid dividends. The Preferred Stock of the Company, as evidenced by
ownership of Depositary Shares, is convertible at the option of the
holder, at any time, into Common Stock of the Company at a conversion
price of $37.75 per share of Common Stock. The Preferred Stock is
redeemable at the option of the Company at any time at $25 per share
plus any unpaid dividends. The Preferred Stock is also exchangeable at
the option of the Company, in whole but not in part, on any dividend
payment date into 8 1/2% convertible subordinated debentures due in 2012
at a rate equivalent to $25 principal amount of debentures for each
Depositary Share. In conjunction with the covenants of the Company's
Amended Revolving Credit Agreement as well as the New Credit Agreement,
effective January 17, 1997 (see Note 3), the Company was required to
suspend the payment of quarterly dividends on its $21.25 Preferred Stock
(equivalent to $2.125 per Depositary Share) until certain financial
criteria are met. Therefore, the dividends on the $21.25 Preferred Stock
have not been declared since 1995 (although they have been fully accrued
due to the "cumulative" feature of the Preferred Stock). The aggregate
amount of dividends in arrears is approximately $4,781,000 at December
31, 1997, which represents approximately $47.81 per share of Preferred
Stock or approximately $4.78 per Depositary Share and is included in
accrued expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet. Under
the terms of the Preferred Stock, the holders of the Depositary Shares
are entitled to elect two additional Directors since dividends have been
deferred for more than six quarters and they currently plan to do so at
the May 14, 1998 Annual Meeting.
(b) Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock
Under the terms of the Company's Shareholder Rights Plan, as amended,
the Board of Directors of the Company declared a distribution on
September 23, 1988 of one Preferred Stock purchase right (a "Right") for
each outstanding share of Common Stock. Under certain circumstances,
each Right will entitle the holder thereof to purchase from the Company
one one-hundredth of a share (a "Unit") of Series A Junior Participating
Cumulative Preferred Stock, $1 par value (the "Preferred Stock"), at an
exercise price of $100 per Unit, subject to adjustment. The Rights will
not be exercisable or transferable apart from the Common Stock until the
earlier to occur of (i) 10 days following a public announcement that a
person or group (an "Acquiring Person") has acquired 20% or more of the
Company's outstanding Common Stock (the "Stock Acquisition Date"), (ii)
10 business days following the announcement by a person or group of an
intention to make an offer that would result in such persons or group
becoming an Acquiring Person or (iii) the declaration by the Board of
Directors that any person is an "Adverse Person", as defined under the
Plan. The Rights will not have any voting rights or be entitled to
dividends.
Upon the occurrence of a triggering event as described above, each Right
will be entitled to that number of Units of Preferred Stock of the
Company having a market value of two times the exercise price of the
Right. If the Company is acquired in a merger or 50% or more of its
assets or earning power is sold, each Right will be entitled to receive
Common Stock of the acquiring company having a market value of two times
the exercise price of the Right. Rights held by such a person or group
causing a triggering event may be null and void. The Rights are
redeemable at $.02 per Right by the Board of Directors at any time prior
to the occurrence of a triggering event.
On January 17, 1997, the Board of Directors amended the Company's
Shareholder Rights Plan to (i) permit
42

the acquisition of the Series B Preferred Stock by certain investors
(see Note 7 above), any additional Preferred Stock issued as a dividend
thereon, any Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Series B
Preferred Stock and certain other events without triggering the
distribution of the Rights; (ii) lower the threshold for the occurrence
of a Stock Acquisition Date from 20% to 10%; and (iii) extend the
expiration date of the Plan from September 23, 1998 to January 21, 2007.
(c) ESOT Related Obligations
In July 1989, the Company sold 262,774 shares of its $1 par value Common
Stock, previously held in treasury, to its Employee Stock Ownership
Trust ("ESOT") for $9,000,000. The ESOT borrowed the funds via a
placement of 8.24% Senior Unsecured Notes ("Notes") guaranteed by the
Company. The Notes are payable in 20 equal semi-annual installments of
principal and interest commencing in January 1990. The Company's annual
contribution to the ESOT, plus any dividends accumulated on the
Company's Common Stock held by the ESOT, will be used to repay the
Notes. Since the Notes are guaranteed by the Company, they are included
in "Long-Term Debt" with an offsetting reduction in "Stockholders'
Equity" in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The amount
included in "Long-Term Debt" will be reduced and "Stockholders' Equity"
reinstated as the Notes are paid by the ESOT (see Note 3).
[9] Stock Options
At December 31, 1997 and 1996, 481,610 shares of the Company's authorized but
unissued Common Stock were reserved for issuance to employees under its 1982
Stock Option Plan. Options are granted at fair market value on the date of
grant, as defined, and generally become exercisable in two equal annual
installments on the second and third anniversary of the date of grant and expire
eight years from the date of grant. Options for 240,000 shares of Common Stock
granted in 1992 become exercisable on March 31, 2001 if the Company achieves a
certain profit target in the year 2000; may become exercisable earlier if
certain interim profit targets are achieved; and to the extent not exercised,
expire 10 years from the date of grant. A summary of stock option activity
related to the Company's 1982 Stock Option Plan is as follows:

In addition, 225,000 shares of Common Stock, $1.00 par value, were reserved for
options granted on January 17, 1997 to four members of the redefined Executive
Committee (see Note 7) at $8.38 per share, fair market value at the date of
grant. The terms of these options are generally similar to options granted under
the 1982 Plan except as to the timing of the exercisability, which is May 17,
2000. These options expire on January 16, 2005.

If SFAS No. 123 had been fully implemented, stock based compensation costs would
have decreased net income in 1997 by $354,992 (or $0.07 per Common Share) and
increased the net loss in 1996 and 1995 by $19,000. The effect of applying SFAS
No. 123 in this pro forma disclosure may not be indicative of future amounts.
[10] Employee Benefit Plans
The Company and its U.S. subsidiaries have a defined benefit plan that covers
its executive, professional, administrative and clerical employees, subject to
certain specified service requirements. The plan is noncontributory and benefits
are based on an employee's years of service and "final average earnings", as
defined. The plan provides reduced benefits for early retirement and takes into
account offsets for social security benefits. All employees are vested after 5
years of service. Net pension cost for 1997, 1996 and 1995 follows (in
thousands):

The Company also has a contributory Section 401(k) plan and a noncontributory
Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) which cover its executive, professional,
administrative and clerical employees, subject to certain specified service
requirements. Under the terms of the Section 401(k) plan, the provision is based
on a specified percentage of profits, subject to certain limitations.
Contributions to the related ESOT are determined by the Board of Directors and
may be paid in cash or shares of the Company's Common Stock.
The Company's policy is generally to fund currently the costs accrued under the
pension plan, Section 401(k) plan and the ESOP.
The Company also has an unfunded supplemental retirement plan for certain
employees whose benefits under principal salaried retirement plans are reduced
because of compensation limitations under federal tax laws. Pension expense for
this plan was $.2 million in each of the last three years. At December 31, 1997,
the projected benefit obligation was $1.5 million. A corresponding accumulated
benefit obligation of $1.2 million has been recognized as a liability in the
consolidated balance sheet and is equal to the amount of the vested benefits.

In addition, the Company has an incentive compensation plan for key employees
which is generally based on achieving certain levels of profit within their
respective business units.
The aggregate amounts provided under these employee benefit plans were $8.5
million in 1997, $8.5 million in 1996 and $7.6 million in 1995.
The Company also contributes to various multi-employer union retirement plans
under collective bargaining agreements, which provide retirement benefits for
substantially all of its union employees. The aggregate amounts provided in
accordance with the requirements of these plans were $8.8 million in 1997, $8.5
million in 1996 and $12.6 million in 1995. The Multi-employer Pension Plan
Amendments Act of 1980 defines certain employer obligations under multi-employer
plans. Information regarding union retirement plans is not available from plan
administrators to enable the Company to determine its share of unfunded vested
liabilities.
[11] Contingencies and Commitments
In connection with the Rincon Center real estate development joint venture, the
Company's wholly-owned real estate subsidiary currently guarantees the payment
of interest on both mortgage and bond financing covering the project with loans
totaling $49.2 million; has guaranteed amortization payments on these borrowings
which the Company estimates to be a maximum of $2.5 million; and has guaranteed
a master lease under a sale operating lease-back transaction. In calculating the
potential obligation under the master lease guarantee, the Company has an
agreement with its lenders which employs a 10% discount rate and no increases in
future rental rates beyond current lease terms. Based on these assumptions,
Management believes its additional future obligation will not exceed $1.9
million. The Company has also guaranteed the subsidiary's $2.5 million
amortization guaranty and 80% of the master lease payments through June of 1998.
During 1997, a $3.7 million secured letter of credit, which had been issued as
security for the project borrowings, was allowed by the Company's subsidiary to
be drawn and the funds applied to reduce the loan balance. This accommodation
was made in connection with an agreement with the lender to extend credit
support provided for the bond financing.
As part of the sale operating lease-back transaction, the joint venture, in
which the Company's real estate subsidiary is a 46% general partner, agreed to
obtain a financial commitment on behalf of the lessor to replace at least $43
million of long-term financing by July 1, 1993. To satisfy this obligation, the
partnership successfully extended existing financing to July 1, 1998. To
complete the extension, the partnership had to advance funds to the lessor
sufficient to reduce the financing from $46.5 million to $40.5 million.
Subsequent payments through 1997 have further reduced the loan to $33.9 million.
In addition, as part of the obligations of the extension, the partnership will
have to further amortize the debt from its current level to $33 million through
additional lease payments through June of 1998. Under the master lease, if by
January 1, 1998, a further extension or new commitment for financing on the
property for at least $33 million had not been arranged, then the joint venture
is deemed to have offered to purchase the property for approximately $18.8
million in excess of the then outstanding debt. As of that date, no new
commitment had been secured although negotiations with the current lender were
in progress. In order to allow those discussions to continue, the lessor agreed
to temporarily delay the enforcement of the purchase requirement. In addition,
the joint venture has disputed its obligation to make a $226,000 payment to
lessor, which the lessor claims was due on February 1, 1998. The lessor has
issued a notice of default in order to preserve its rights, but has agreed
temporarily to delay the exercise of any remedies in order to facilitate a
continuation of the parties' discussions. Since January 1, 1998, the joint
venture and the lender have reached a preliminary agreement on a restructure of
the existing financing. That preliminary agreement is subject to further
negotiations and approvals of several parties including the lessor and the
Company's revolving credit facility banks. If implemented, this preliminary
agreement may require the joint venture to give up all or part of its economic
interest in the commercial and retail segments of that portion of the property
identified as Rincon One. The preliminary agreement would also release the joint
venture from all future liabilities under the master lease, including the
obligation to repurchase that segment of the property. In the opinion of
management, the final resolution of any
46

1997, 1996 & 1995 (continued)
[11] Contingencies and Commitments (continued)
adjustment to the terms of the master lease and extension of the existing
financing is not expected to have a material impact on the results of operations
or financial condition as reported in the accompanying financial statements.
In 1993, the joint venture also extended $29 million of the $61 million
financing, then outstanding through October 1, 1998. This extension required a
$.6 million up front paydown. Subsequent paydowns through 1997 further reduced
the loan by $10.7 million. This included the application of the $3.7 million
letter of credit funds in 1997 described above. The joint venture may be
required to amortize up to $3.3 million more of the principal in 1998, however,
under certain conditions that amortization could be as low as $2.5 million. At
the same time that it reached a preliminary agreement on the extension of
financing under the sale operating lease-back transaction, the joint venture
also reached a preliminary agreement covering the extension of this financing to
December 1, 2000. The terms of the proposed extension still require additional
approvals and final documentation. However, if implemented, the agreement
provides for the elimination of any joint venture, partner or Company guarantees
beyond the current October 1, 1998 maturity date.
Total lease payments and debt service including amortization at Rincon Center
are $11.7 million through 1998. It is expected that some but not all of these
requirements will be generated by the project's operations. The Company's real
estate subsidiary and, to a more limited extent, the Company, are obligated to
fund any of the loan amortization and/or lease payments at Rincon in the event
sufficient funds are not generated by the property or contributed to it by its
partners. Based on current Company forecasts, it is expected the maximum
exposure to service these commitments in 1998 is $8.1 million. If the current
financing agreements are approved and implemented, any requirement of the
Company and/or its wholly-owned real estate subsidiary to provide cash to the
joint venture after 1998, will be significantly reduced or eliminated.
In a separate agreement related to this same property, the 20% co-general
partner has indicated it does not currently have nor does it expect to have the
financial resources to fund its share of capital calls. Therefore, the Company's
wholly-owned real estate subsidiary agreed to lend this 20% co-general partner
on an as-needed basis, its share of any capital calls which the partner cannot
meet. In return, the Company's subsidiary receives a priority return from the
partnership on those funds it advances for its partner and penalty fees in the
form of rights to certain other distributions due the borrowing partner from the
partnership. The severity of the penalty fees increases in each succeeding year
for the next several years. The subsidiary advanced approximately $1.8 million
during 1997 and $5.3 million to date under this agreement.
Included in the current loan agreements related to the Rincon joint venture,
among other things, are provisions that, under certain circumstances, could
limit the subsidiary's ability to dividend funds to the Company. In the opinion
of management, these provisions should not affect the operations of the Company
or the subsidiary.
During 1997, a joint venture, in which the Company is a 50% participant, entered
into a $5 million line of credit, secured by the joint venture accounts
receivable. The line of credit is available for the duration of the joint
venture and is guaranteed by the Company on a joint and several basis, and as of
December 31, 1997, no amounts were outstanding under the line.
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

[11] Contingencies and Commitments (continued)
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 has appealed the
decision. As a result of the decision, there is no additional impact on the
Company's Statement of Operations 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.
Contingent liabilities also include liability of contractors for performance and
completion of both company and joint venture construction contracts. In
addition, the Company is a defendant in various lawsuits, arbitration and
alternative dispute resolution ("ADR") proceedings. In the opinion of
management, the resolution of these proceedings will not have a material effect
on the results of operation or financial condition as reported in the
accompanying financial statements.

56% in 1995.
[14] Related Party Transactions
Effective with the issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock described in Note 7
above, the Company entered into an agreement with Tutor-Saliba Corporation
("TSC"), a California corporation engaged in the construction industry, and
Ronald N. Tutor, Chief Executive Officer and sole stockholder of TSC, to provide
certain management services, as defined. TSC holds a 6.81% interest in the
Company's $1.00 par value Common Stock and currently participates in active
joint ventures with the Company with a total contract value of approximately
$800 million. Mr. Tutor was appointed as one of the three new directors in
accordance with the terms of the Series B transaction, a member of the Executive
Committee of the Board and, during 1997, acting Chief Operating Officer of the
Company. Effective January 1, 1998, Mr. Tutor was elected Vice Chairman of the
Board of Directors. Compensation for the management services consists of a
monthly payment of $12,500 to TSC and options granted to Mr. Tutor to

purchase 150,000 shares of the Company's 1.00 par value Common Stock at fair
market value (which are included as part of the 225,000 options granted in 1997
as described in Note 9).
During 1997, the Company, with the approval of its Board of Directors,
consummated a transaction whereby it sold its 20% interest in two joint ventures
to TSC, the sponsoring partner, for a negotiated price of $4.5 million,
representing the Company's share of the current total forecasted profit less a
discount of approximately 7%. Since one project was approximately 24% complete
and the other project was 57% complete as of December 31, 1997, the impact of
this transaction was to accelerate approximately $3.2 million of contract
profits and receipt of the related cash.

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 Perini Corporation

responsibilities provide them the opportunity to (i) make a material and
significant impact to the financial performance of the Company; (ii) have major
responsibility in the control of the corporate assets; and (iii) provide

(b) Eligibility and designated levels of participation will be
determined by the CEO subject to Committee approval. Such eligibility and level

qualify to receive a bonus, if any, based on the performance of such other level

such number of shares of Stock sufficient to pay that portion, if any, of the

Period; provided, however, the aggregate number of shares of Stock issued and
reserved for issuance under the Plan shall not violate the rules or regulations
of any stock exchange (including but not limited to any rule requiring
stockholder approval for the issuance of Stock hereunder) on which the Stock is
listed or any governmental authority having jurisdiction thereunder. 6.
ESTABLISHMENT AND ALLOCATION OF THE BONUS POOL (CORPORATE) For each Bonus
Period, the pool established for the determination of bonuses (the "Bonus Pool")
is a function of (i) the goals established, (ii) levels of achievement, (iii)
base salary of participants and (iv) individuals(s) bonus limits(s) assigned to
participant(s) expressed as a percentage of base salary.
6
<PAGE>
At the beginning of the Bonus Period, the CEO will recommend to the
Committee (1) certain goals, generally financial, to be achieved during the
current fiscal year, (ii) a list of participants and (iii) level of
participation expressed as the maximum percentage of Base Compensation that
could be earned as a bonus assuming 100% achievement of each goal. The
individual levels of participation (or bonus limits) are as follows:
Executive Management - up to 100% of Base Salary
Corporate Officers - up to 45% of Base Salary
Corporate Staff - up to 30% of Base Salary
From the above information, the maximum bonus can be calculated assuming all
goals are achieved at the 100% level.
Eligible bonuses for levels of achievement less than 100% can be
summarized below:
Actual Target Percentage Payout
Achievement Level of Maximum Bonus
<80% --
80 - 84% 40%
85 - 89% 75%
90 - 100% 100%
Percentage payout of Maximum Bonus is not subject to interpolation. In
the event of multiple goals, the achievement of one could still result in a
partial bonus depending on the weighting of each objective and the actual target
level of achievement.
Example:
(1) Corporate Profit Target: $25 (Basis for 60% of Bonus)
Corporate Profit Actual: 20
% 80
(2) Corporate Cash Flow Target: $10 (Basis for 40% of Bonus)
Corporate Cash Flow Actual: 9
% 90
7
<PAGE>
A person with a potential bonus of 100% of salary would get 64.00% x
100.00% or 64.0% of salary as bonus based as follows:
Corporate Profit 60% x 40% = 24.00% (80-84%=40%)
Corporate Cash Flow 40% x 100%= 40.00% (>90% = 100%)
------
TOTAL 64.00%
7. ESTABLISHMENT AND ALLOCATION OF BONUS POOL (REAL ESTATE)
The establishment of the Bonus Pool for Participants from the Real
Estate business unit and the allocation of the Bonus Pool to the Participants
can be calculated similar to the Corporate Participants as described above in
Section 6 or in accordance with the overall concepts described in the
Construction Business Unit Plan dated December 14, 1995. 8. PAYMENT OF BONUSES
(a) If approved by the Committee, payment of the cash portion of any Bonus under
the Plan shall be made on the Payment Date. Bonuses may be paid in cash or Stock
or any percentage of cash and Stock as the Committee shall determine in its sole
discretion. (b) If any portion of the Bonus is to be paid in Stock, on the
Payment Date, or as soon thereafter as practical, the Participant shall be
issued a certificate registered in his or her name, for the number of shares of
Stock which would result by dividing the dollar value of that portion of the
Participant's Bonus to be received in Stock by the Fair Market Value with
respect to the Payment Date. No fractional shares will be issued. Cash will be
paid in lieu of any fractional shares.
8
<PAGE>
9. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT
In the event a Participant ceases to be employed by the Company :
(a) Due to normal retirement, or early retirement with Committee
consent, under a formal plan or policy of the Company, or total and permanent
disability, as determined by the Committee, or death, a Participant's
eligibility, pro rata, shall continue to remain in effect for the duration of
the applicable Bonus Period. In the event of such a termination of employment,
the Participant, or her or his Beneficiary, on the Payment Date, shall receive
the Participant's pro rated Bonus for the applicable Bonus Period.
(b) In the event that a Participant shall cease to be an employee of
the Company upon the occurrence of any other event, the Participant's
eligibility under the Plan shall be canceled and terminated forthwith, and no
Bonuses shall be payable under the Plan except as and to the extent the
Committee may determine otherwise.
(c) For purposes of the preceding, it shall not be considered a
termination of employment when a Participant is placed by the Company on
military or sick leave or such other type of leave of absence, for a period of
six months or less, which is considered as continuing intact the employment
relationship of the Participant. For any such leave extending beyond six months,
the Committee shall decide whether and when there has been a termination of
employment.
10. ADJUSTMENTS
If there shall be any change in the Stock subject to the Plan through
merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock
split, exchange of stock or other change in the corporate structure, appropriate
adjustments shall be made in the aggregate number and kind of shares subject to
the Plan to reflect such changes,
9
<PAGE>
if and to the extent determined by the Committee, whose determination shall be
conclusive.
11. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF PLAN
The Board may, at any time, and from time to time, suspend or terminate
the Plan in whole or in part or amend it from time to time in such respects as
the Board may deem appropriate and in the best interests of the Company.
12. GOVERNMENT AND OTHER REGULATIONS
The obligation of the Company to issue, or transfer and deliver shares
for Bonuses under the Plan shall be subject to all applicable laws, regulations,
rules and orders which shall then be in effect.
13. UNFUNDED PLAN
The Plan, insofar as it provides for payments, shall be unfunded and
the Company shall not be required to segregate any assets which may at any time
be subject to Bonuses under the Plan. Any liability of the Company to any person
with respect to any award under this Plan shall be based solely upon any
contractual obligations which may be created under this Plan.
14. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
(a) Right to Continued Employment: No person shall have any claim or
right to be granted a Bonus under the Plan, and the grant of a Bonus under the
Plan shall not be construed as giving any Participant the right to be retained
in the employ of the Company and the Company expressly reserves the right at any
time to dismiss a Participant with or without cause, free from any liability, or
any claim under the Plan.
(b) Non-Transferability: Except by will or the laws of descent and
distribution, no right or interest of any Participant in the Plan shall be
assignable or transferable and
10
<PAGE>
no right or interest of any Participant shall be liable for, or subject to, any
lien, obligation or liability of such Participant.
(c) Withholding Taxes: The Company shall have the right to withhold
from cash payments sufficient amounts to cover tax withholding for income and
employment taxes, and if the amount of cash payment is insufficient, the Company
may require the Participant to pay to it the balance required to be withheld.
Likewise, the Company may require a payment to cover applicable withholding for
income and employment taxes in the event any part of the Bonus is paid in Stock.
(d) Plan Expenses: Any expenses of administering this Plan shall be
borne by the Company.
(e) Legal Considerations: No persons, including a Participant, or his
or her Beneficiary, shall have any claim or right to the payment of an award,

legal requirements, or is opposed to governmental public policy.
(f) Other Plans: Nothing contained herein shall prevent the Company
from establishing other incentive and benefit plans in which Participants in the
Plan may also participate. However, any amounts paid to a Participant with
respect to Bonuses under the Plan shall not affect the level of benefits
provided to or received by any Participant (or his or her estate or Beneficiary)
as part of any other employee benefit plan of the Company.
(g) No Warranty of Tax Effect: No opinion shall be deemed to be
expressed or warranties made as to the effect for federal, state or local tax
purposes of any Bonuses.

be in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and the validity, construction,
interpretation,

administration and effect of the Plan and of its rules and regulations, and

5
<PAGE>
7. ESTABLISHMENT OF THE BONUS POOL
For each Bonus Period, the pool to be established for the
determination of Bonuses (the "Bonus Pool") shall be the lower of a
percentage, subject to a maximum of 10%, of the applicable business
unit's Pretax Profits as determined by the Committee in its sole
discretion or $1000 per point based on the aggregate number of
Participants' points. Such percentages and levels of Pretax Profits
will be reviewed annually and may be revised by the CEO subject to
Committee approval. The initial Performance Goals for the construction
Business Units and the resulting Bonus Pool percentages are as set
forth in Schedule A annexed hereto.
8. ALLOCATION OF BONUS POOL
(a) The number of points to which the Participant is entitled
is determined by multiplying the Participant's Base Salary, in
thousandths, by the Point Factors assigned to his or her level of
participation as set forth in Schedule B annexed hereto. For example, a
Level IV Participant earning $66,000 will have 33 points [66 (Base
Salary in thousandths) x .50 (Point Factor assigned to Level IV) = 33].
(b) The total number of points awarded to all Participants is
divided into the available Bonus Pool to determine the "dollar value
per point", subject to a maximum of $1,000 per point.
(c) The amount of a Participant's Bonus is then determined by
multiplying the number of points to which the Participant is entitled
by the "dollar value per point".
(d) Up to 25% of each Participant's Bonus may be (i)
reallocated to previously established pool Participants on a basis
other than the initial salary points assigned, or (ii) reduced by such
amount, at the discretion of the CEO, subject to Committee approval.
This reallocation to other Participants may result in such other
Participants earning Bonuses of greater than $1,000 per point, subject
to a maximum of one times the Participant's Base Salary. In the event
of reallocation, the amount of the total Bonus Pool may not exceed
$1,000 multiplied by the total points assigned to such Business Unit.
9. PAYMENT OF BONUSES
(a) If approved by the Committee, payment of the cash portion
of any Bonus under the Plan shall be made on the Payment Date. Bonuses
may be paid in cash or Stock or any percentage of cash and Stock as the
Committee shall determine in its sole discretion.
(b) If any portion of the Bonus is to be paid in Stock, on the
Payment Date, or as soon thereafter as practical, the Participant shall
be issued a certificate registration in his or her name, for the number
of shares of Stock which would result by dividing the dollar value of
that portion of the Participant's Bonus to be received in Stock by the
Fair Market Value with respect to the Payment Date. No fractional
shares will be issued. Cash will be paid in lieu of any fractional
shares.
(c) Payment of 75% of the bonus pool calculated in accordance
with Sections 7 and 8 under this plan will be paid out based on the
achievement of Business Unit Pretax Profit Targets and 25% of the bonus
pool calculated in accordance with Sections 7 and 8 under this plan
will be paid out based on the achievement of the Corporate Pretax
Profit Target.

10. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT
In the event a Participant ceases to be employed by the
Company or any subsidiary Company of the Company:
(a) Due to normal retirement, or early retirement with
Committee consent, under a formal plan or policy of the Company, or
total and permanent disability, as determined by the Committee, or
death, Participant's eligibility, pro rata, shall continue to remain in
effect for the duration of the applicable Bonus Period. In the event of
such a termination of employment, the Participant, or her or his
Beneficiary, on the Payment Date, shall receive the Participant's pro
rated Bonus for the applicable Bonus Period.
(b) In the event that a Participant shall cease to be an
employee of the Company or any subsidiary corporation of the Company
upon the occurrence of any other event, participant's eligibility under
the Plan shall be cancelled and terminated forthwith, and no Bonuses
shall be payable under the Plan except as and to the extent the
Committee may determine otherwise.
(c) For purposes of the preceding, it shall not be considered
a termination of employment when a Participant is placed by the Company
or subsidiary company of the Company on military or sick leave or such
other type of leave of absence, for a period of six months or less,
which is considered as continuing intact the employment relationship of
the Participant. For any such leave extending beyond six months the
Committee shall decide whether and when there has been a termination of
employment.

<PAGE>
11. ADJUSTMENTS
If there shall be any change in the Stock subject to the Plan
through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, stock
dividend, stock split, exchange of stock or other change in the
corporate structure, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the
aggregate number and kind of shares subject to the Plan to reflect such
changes, if and to the extent determined by the Committee, whose
determination shall be conclusive.
12. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF PLAN
The Board may, at any time, and from time to time, suspend or
terminate the Plan in whole or in part or amend it from time to time in
such respects as the Board may deem appropriate and in the best
interests of the Company.
13. GOVERNMENT AND OTHER REGULATIONS
The obligation of the Company to issue, or transfer and
deliver shares for Bonuses under the Plan shall be subject to all
applicable laws, regulations, rules and orders which shall then be in
effect.
14. UNFUNDED PLAN
The Plan, insofar as it provides for payments, shall be
unfunded and the Company shall not be required to segregate any assets
which may at any time be subject to Bonuses under the Plan. Any
liability of the Company to any person with respect to any award under
this Plan shall be based solely upon any contractual obligations which
may be created under this Plan.

<PAGE>
15. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
(a) Right to Continued Employment: No person shall have any
claim or right to be granted a Bonus under the Plan, and the grant of a
Bonus under the Plan shall not be construed as giving any Participant
the right to be retained in the employ of the Company or any subsidiary
company of the Company and the Company expressly reserves the right at
any time to dismiss a Participant with or without cause, free from any
liability, or any claim under the Plan.
(b) Non-Transferability: Except by will or the laws of descent
and distribution, no right or interest of any Participant in the Plan
shall be assignable or transferable and no right or interest of any
Participant shall be liable for, or subject to, any lien, obligation or
liability of such Participant.
(c) Withholding Taxes: The Company shall have the right to
withhold from cash payments sufficient amounts to cover tax withholding
for income and employment taxes, and if the amount of cash payment is
insufficient, the Company may require the Participant to pay to it the
balance required to be withheld. Likewise, the Company may require a
payment to cover applicable withholding for income and employment taxes
in the event any part of the Bonus is paid in Stock.
(d) Plan Expenses: Any expenses of administering this Plan
shall be borne by the Company.
(e) Legal Considerations: No person, including a Participant,
or his or her Beneficiary, shall have any claim or right to the payment
of an award, if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such
payment does not comply with legal requirements, or
9
<PAGE>
is opposed to governmental public policy.
(f) Other Plans: Nothing contained herein shall prevent the
Company from establishing other incentive and benefit plans in which
Participants in the Plan may also participate. However, any amounts
paid to a Participant with respect to Bonuses under the Plan shall not
affect the level of benefits provided to or received by any Participant
(or his or her estate or Beneficiary) as part of any other employee
benefit plan of the Company.
(g) No Warranty of Tax Effect: No opinion shall be deemed to
be expressed or warranties made as to the effect for federal, state or
local tax purposes of any Bonuses.
(h) Construction of Plan: The place of administration of the
Plan shall be in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and the validity,
construction, interpretation, administration and effect of the Plan and
of its rules and regulations, and rights relating to the Plan, shall be
determined solely in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts.

Exhibit 99.1
Perini Corporation
Notes to Combined Financial Statements of Significant Joint Ventures
For the Year Ended December 31, 1997
[1] Basis of Combination
Perini Corporation (the "Company"), in the normal conduct of its business, has
entered into partnership arrangements, referred to as "joint ventures", for
certain construction projects in order to share risk, working capital, bonding
and other financial requirements, and in some instances, to obtain more
extensive knowledge of a new local construction market or certain unique
construction expertise required. Each of the joint venture participants is
usually committed to supply a predetermined percentage of capital, as required,
and to share in a predetermined percentage of the income or loss of the project.
These joint ventures are temporary in nature, generally from three to five
years, since they are formed to bid on a specific project, execute the work, if
awarded the contract, and are liquidated at the end of the project. While
control over the actual construction work performed is normally delegated to the
designated joint venture sponsor, usually the partner with a 50% or higher
percentage interest in the project, the overall management of the joint venture
resides with a Management Committee that requires unanimous approval of certain
key operational and financial matters such as the amount of the original bid,
ability to borrow funds, incur debt, guarantees and lease commitments and
investment policy regarding venture funds. In addition, the Management Committee
requires unanimous approval over terms of sale of venture assets, settlement
guidelines related to contract claims and any transaction between the joint
venture and any of its partners.
In accordance with Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X, the Company has presented
combined financial statements of joint ventures considered to be significant
under the test, because the Company believes that reporting the financial
results of any one joint venture by itself would not be significant to users and
could be detrimental to the Company when negotiating unapproved contract change
orders and claims with the owner of the project or could unfairly assist
competitors when bidding against the Company on similar contracts in the future.
The following joint ventures have been combined in the accompanying financial
statements:

</TABLE>
[2] Significant Accounting Policies
[a] Long-Term Contracts
Profits from construction joint venture contracts are generally recognized by
applying percentages of completion for each year to the total estimated profits
for the respective contracts. The percentages of completion are determined by
relating the actual cost of the work performed to date to the current estimated
total cost of the respective contracts. When the estimate on a contract
indicates a loss, the ventures' policy is to record the entire loss. The
cumulative effect of revisions in estimates of total cost or revenue during the
course of the work is reflected in the accounting period in which the facts that
caused the revision become known. An amount equal to the costs attributable to
unapproved change orders and claims is included in the total estimated revenue
when realization is probable. Profit from unapproved change orders and claims is
recorded in the year such amounts are resolved.
In accordance with normal practice in the construction industry, the joint
ventures include in current assets and current liabilities amounts related to
construction contracts realizable and payable over a period in excess of one
year. Unbilled work represents the excess of contract costs and profits
recognized to date on the percentage of completion accounting method over
billings to date on certain contracts. Deferred contract revenue represents the
excess of billings to date over the amount of contract costs and profits
recognized to date on the percentage of completion accounting method on the
remaining contracts.
[b] Income Taxes
The joint ventures have not recorded any provision for income taxes in the
accompanying financial statements as such liabilities are the responsibility of
the joint venture partners.
[c] Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The
most significant estimates with regard to the accompanying financial statements
related to the estimating of final construction contract profit in accordance
with accounting for long-term contracts (see Note 2[a]) and estimating potential
liabilities in conjunction with certain commitments and
6
<PAGE>
contingencies, as discussed in Note 3. Actual results could differ from
management's estimates and assumptions.
[d] Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The joint ventures' financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash
equivalents, contract accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued
expenses. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair
value due to their short-term nature.
[e] Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated using the
straight-line method over the estimated remaining life of the contract.
[f] Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments with original
maturities of three months or less.
[3] Contingencies and Commitments
Certain joint ventures have noncancellable office and equipment leases with
varying expiration dates through March 31, 2000. The following is a schedule, by
year, of future minimum rental payments required under all operating leases that
have initial or remaining noncancellable lease terms as of December 31, 1997:
Lease
Year Commitments
- ------------------ ------------------
1998 $ 1,217,062
1999 1,052,263
2000 128,441
------------------
$ 2,397,766
==================
Rent expense included in contract costs amounted to $680,846 for the year ended
December 31, 1997.
During 1997, a joint venture, in which the Company is a 50% participant, entered
into a $5 million line of credit, secured by the joint venture's accounts
receivable. The line of credit is available for the duration of the joint
venture and is guaranteed by the Company on a joint and several basis, and as of
December 31, 1997, no amounts were outstanding under the line.
Contingent liabilities include liability of contractors for performance and
completion of joint venture construction contracts. In addition, the joint
ventures are defendants in various lawsuits, arbitration and alternative dispute
resolution ("ADR") proceedings. In the opinion of management of the various
joint ventures, the resolution of these proceedings will not have a material
effect on the results of operations or financial condition as reported in the
accompanying combined financial statements.
[4] Related Party Transactions
[a] Perini Corporation
Significant billings from the Company to a certain joint venture, included in
the accompanying combined financial statements, for various services for the
year ended December 31, 1997 were as follows:
1997
------------------
Equipment Rental $ 1,748,342
Job Material & Labor 15,513,048
------------------
$ 17,261,390
==================

<PAGE>
The above amounts include contract costs and profit being paid to the Company as
a subcontractor to the joint venture. As of December 31, 1997, the subcontract
price is $22,725,581. In addition, included in the combined joint ventures' cost
of operations are charges for administrative costs including management fees.
[b] Other Joint Venturers
Included in the combined joint ventures' cost of operations are changes for
subcontract labor, rent and other administrative costs, including management
fees, that were incurred with the various related parties.
[5] Employee Benefit Plans
The combined joint ventures contribute to various multi-employer union
retirement plans under collective bargaining agreements, which provide
retirement benefits for substantially all of its union employees. The Multi-
employer Pension Plan Amendments Act of 1980 defines certain employer
obligations under multi-employer plans. Information regarding union retirement
plans are not available from plan administrators to enable the Company to
determine its share of unfunded vested liabilities.
Supervisory personnel are generally covered under the sponsoring joint
venturer's plan.
