                                PART I - ITEM 2
                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

      The  Company  is  engaged  in  the  business  of  selling  and  installing
industrial flooring systems. The following Management's  Discussion and Analysis
should be read in  conjunction  with the  Management's  Discussion  and Analysis
included in the Company's Form 10-KSB for the year ended May 31, 1997.

Financial Condition

      Total assets at November 30, 1997 were  $3,352,405  compared to $3,298,429
at the year ended May 31, 1997.  The Company's  cash position  remains  limited,
$30,748 at November  30, 1997  compared to $21,397 at May 31,  1997.  During the
last several years, the Company's cash position has been limited and its ability
to expand its  operations in a meaningful  way is restricted by its limited cash
position.

      Receivables from non-affiliates increased from $900,123 at May 31, 1997 to
$1,100,277  at  November  30, 1997 an increase  of  approximately  22.24%.  This
significant  increase  was  primarily  the  result  of  decreased   collections.
Receivables  from affiliates were down slightly from $756,874 at May 31, 1997 to
$748,331 at November 30, 1997.  Total  receivables were down $332,266 from total
receivables at August 31, 1997.

      Inventories  decreased  slightly to $507,785 at November 30, 1997 compared
to $535,155 at May 31, 1997.

      The  Company  does  not  currently  have  any  lines  of  credit  and  has
historically  borrowed short term funds from its affiliates and from  commercial
banks  for  working  capital.  At  November  30,  1997,  the  Company  had total
liabilities  to banks of which  $428,632 was  classified as current debt. At May
31,  1997,  the Company  had total  liabilities  to banks of $444,323  which was
classified  as current  debt.  The  Company's  bank debt has  historically  been
renewed  in June of each  year.  This  loan is  secured  by the  Company's  real
property and is guaranteed by Donald L. Cox and Lucille M.
Cox, officers and directors of the Company.

      At November  30,  1997,  total  liabilities  were  $2,078,162  compared to
$2,150,657 at May 31, 1997.

Results of Operations

      The Company's  revenues are  primarily  attributed to the sale of flooring
components to franchisees and licensees,  the sale and  installation of complete
flooring jobs by the Company.  Effective March 1, 1997, the Company discontinued
the sale and  installation  of interior  ceiling and wall  systems.  The Company
discontinued the product line to concentrate on Tufco flooring.

      Total net sales for the three month period ended  November 30, 1997,  were
$1,445,274 compared to $ 1,917,846 for the three month period ended November 30,
1996,  a decrease  of  approximately  24.64%.  Total net sales for the six month
period ended November 30, 1997, were  $3,183,256  compared to $3,913,318 for the
six month period ended  November 30, 1996, a decrease of  approximately  18.66%.
The   reduction  in  sales  was  primarily   attributable   to  a  reduction  in
installations by the company and the elimination of the Arcoplast Division.

      Operating  Expenses.  Cost of sales during the three month  periods  ended
November  30, 1997 and  November  30, 1996 were 71% of total net sales.  Cost of
sales during the six month period ended November 30, 1997 was 70% of total sales
compared to 71% for the six month period ended November 30, 1996.

     For the three month period  ended  November  30,  1997,  total  general and
administrative  expenses  were  $286,846  (approximately  20%  of  total  sales)
compared  to $294,144  (15% of total  sales) for the three  month  period  ended
November 30,  1996.  For the six month  period  ended  November 30, 1997,  total
general and  administrative  expenses were $585,091  (approximately 18% of total
sales)  compared to $604,293 (15% of total sales) for the six month period ended
November 30, 1996.

      Selling  expenses  were down for both the three month period and six month
period ended November 30, 1997 from $191,831 and $413,538  respectively  for the
three months and six months ended November 30, 1996 to $116,233 and $217,704 for
the three months and six months ended November 30, 1997.

      Total cost of sales and  operating  expenses  for the three  month  period
ended  November  30,  1997 were  $1,413,425  (98% of total  sales)  compared  to
$1,825,826  (95% of total sales) for the three month  period ended  November 30,
1996. Total cost of sales and operating  expenses for the six month period ended
November 30, 1997 were  $2,981,249  (94% of total sales)  compared to $3,768,051
(96% of total  sales) for the six month period  ended  November  30,  1996.  The
decrease in selling expenses of $120,236 for the quarter ended November 30, 1997
compares to November 30, 1996 as the primary  reason for the decrease in cost of
goods sold and operating expenses as a percentage of revenue.

     Net Income. For the three month period ended November 30, 1997, the Company
had net income of $19,616  compared to net income of $49,469 for the three month
period ended November

income of $125,639  compared  to net income of $73,158 for the six month  period
ended November 30, 1996.
