                                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 February 28, 1998 were  $3,053,621  compared to $3,298,429
at the year ended May 31, 1997.  The Company's  cash position  remains  limited,
$5,974 at February 28, 1998 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 decreased from $900,123 at May 31, 1997 to
$818,469 at February  28, 1998 a decrease of  approximately  9.07%.  This slight
decrease was primarily  the result of increased  collections.  Receivables  from
affiliates  were up from  $756,874 at May 31,  1997 to $849,029 at February  28,
1998.

      Inventories  decreased  to  $470,685  at  February  28,  1998  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  February  28,  1998,  the  Company  had total
liabilities  to banks of $419,061 of which  $36,538  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 February  28,  1998,  total  liabilities  were  $1,697,112  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  February 28, 1998,  were
$1,826,567  compared to $2,050,798 for the three month period ended February 28,
1997, a decrease of approximately 11%. Total net sales for the nine month period
ended  February 28, 1998,  were  $5,009,823  compared to $5,964,116 for the nine
month period ended  February  28,  1997,  a decrease of  approximately  16%. 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  period  ended
February  28, 1998 was 70%  compared to 74% for the three  months  period  ended
February 28, 1997. Cost of sales during the nine month period ended February 28,
1998 was 70% of total  sales  compared  to 72% for the nine month  period  ended
February 28, 1997.

      For the three month period ended  February  28,  1998,  total  general and
administrative  expenses  were  $352,861  (approximately  19%  of  total  sales)
compared  to $400,768  (20% of total  sales) for the three  month  period  ended
February 28, 1997.  For the nine month  period  ended  February 28, 1998,  total
general and  administrative  expenses were $937,952  (approximately 19% of total
sales)  compared to  $1,005,061  (17 % of total  sales)for the nine month period
ended February 28, 1997.

      Selling  expenses were down for both the three month period and nine month
period ended February 28, 1998 from $192,446 and $605,984  respectively  for the
three months and nine months ended February 28, 1997 to $88,157 and $305,861 for
the three months and nine months  ended  February  28,  1998.  The  reduction in
selling  expenses was primarily  attributable to a reduction in installations by
the company and the elimination of the Arcoplast Division.

      Total cost of sales and  operating  expenses  for the three  month  period
ended  February  28,  1998 were  $1,699,784  (93% of total  sales)  compared  to
$2,190,759  (107% of total sales) for the three month period ended  February 28,
1997. Total cost of sales and operating expenses for the nine month period ended
February 28, 1998 were  $4,681,033  (93% of total sales)  compared to $5,958,810
(100% of total  sales) for the nine month period  ended  February 28, 1997.  The
decrease in selling expenses of $104,289 for the quarter ended February 28, 1998
compares to February 28, 1997 as the primary  reason for the decrease in cost of
goods sold and operating expenses as a percentage of revenue.
