6. (continued)
In the event that performance goals are not achieved, the
restricted shares are progressively subject to forfeiture. The
market value of the outstanding restricted shares has been
recorded as unearned stock grant compensation, a separate
component of stockholders' equity. The unearned compensation
will be charged to general and administrative expense as the
performance goals are met. At September 30, 1995 no such
amounts have been charged.
At September 30, 1995, the company had options outstanding with
respect to 705,902 shares of common stock at exercise prices
ranging from $6.55 to $11.95 per share. The right to exercise
these options vests progressively over a four year period
commencing with the date of issue and expiring ten years from
the date of issue. In addition, there were stock warrants
outstanding for 387,500 shares of common stock with an exercise
price of $7.00 expiring in 1998.

7. Net primary earnings per share of common and common stock
equivalents are calculated using the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding, excluding restricted shares for which
performance goals have not been met, plus the net additional
number of shares which would be issuable upon the exercise of
stock options and warrants, assuming that the company used the
proceeds received to repurchase outstanding shares at market
prices.
8. On March 7, 1995, a complaint asserting breach of contract and
other wrongdoing in connection with the company's sale of its
manufacturing subsidiary, Lake Center Industries, Inc., was filed
against the company and its financial advisor by an unsuccessful
bidder for Lake Center. The plaintiffs allege they have suffered
actual damages of $290 in connection with preparing their bid and
also seek to recover $7,000 on a theory of unjust enrichment,
together with an additional $10,000 in punitive damages. The
company will vigorously defend this suit, which it believes to be
without merit and further believes that the outcome will not have
a material adverse effect on its financial condition.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Results of Operations (all dollar amounts are in thousands unless
otherwise stated)
Quarter ended September 30, 1995 vs. quarter ended September 30, 1994
Revenue: The company's revenue of $91 million in the third
quarter of 1995 was 17% lower than the corresponding figure of $110
million in the third quarter of 1994. This reduction in revenue was
attributable to the completion of certain industrial construction
projects in 1994, while new contract awards (amounting to $427 million
in the first three quarters of 1995) are only beginning to make a
contribution to revenue. The backlog of uncompleted contracts amounted
to $471 million at September 30, 1995, representing an increase of 91%
over the restated September 30, 1994 backlog of $246 million. The
restatement of September 30, 1994 backlog is in respect of a $293
million contract award which was removed from backlog due to its
unlikely prospects of proceeding.
Gross margin: The company's gross margin of $10,818 increased
almost sixfold in the third quarter of 1995 over the corresponding
$1,908 in 1994. Gross margin in 1994 was adversely impacted by a
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations, continued
contract dispute settlement and cost overruns, together amounting to
$3,700. The improvement in 1995 gross margins reflect a more profitable
mix of construction contracts in 1995.
General and administrative expense: General and administrative
expenses of $9,736 were 25% higher than the corresponding figure of
$7,789 in 1994. This was due to the company's increased bidding
activities together with ongoing business development efforts in both
the construction and water and wastewater treatment businesses.
Corporate expense continues to run at a lower rate in 1995 than in 1994
due to cost reduction efforts implemented in the fourth quarter of 1994.
Other income (expense): Interest expense decreased to $172 the
third quarter of 1995, from $741 in the third quarter of 1994, primarily
due to the company having retired all of its short-term debt in the
fourth quarter of 1994. Miscellaneous income of $599 in 1995 is
primarily interest income on short-term investments. Miscellaneous
expense of $978 in 1994 resulted from the write-down of an investment
together with losses on foreign exchange.
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations, continued
Income taxes and net income: The company had income from
continuing operations before taxes and the cumulative effect of changes
in accounting of $1,509 in 1995 compared to a loss of $7,600 in 1994.
Income taxes gave rise to an expense of $294 in 1995 compared to an
expense of $100 in 1994. The 1995 tax expense was attributable to state
and foreign income taxes. The 1994 tax expense was attributable to
state and foreign income taxes in conjunction with U.S. tax losses for
which no net tax benefit was available.
In 1994, discontinued operations, including related disposition
gains net of income taxes, provided income of $3,007.
Net income for the third quarter of 1995 was $1,215, compared to a
net loss of $4,693 for the corresponding period of 1994.
Nine months ended September 30, 1995 vs. nine months ended September 30,
1994
Revenue: The company's revenue of $268 million was 26% lower
than the corresponding figure of $361 million in 1994, for the same
reasons outlined in the previous discussion of revenue for the quarter
ended September 30, 1995.
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations, continued
Gross margin: The company's gross margin of $25,020 increased by
69% in the nine month period of 1995 over the corresponding figure of
$14,793 in 1994. The percentage of gross margin to revenue improved in
1995 compared to 1994 reflecting the company's increased focus on higher
margin construction projects from new work booked in 1995.
General and administrative expense: General and administrative
expense of $27,423 in 1995 increased by 8% over the corresponding figure
of $25,456 in 1994, for the reasons outlined in the discussion of
general and administrative expense for the quarter ended September 30,
1995.
Other income (expense): Interest expense declined to $430 in
1995 from $2,494 in 1994 due to the absence of short-term debt on the
company's balance sheet in 1995. Miscellaneous income of $3,815 in 1995
was attributable to gains from the disposition of surplus assets of
$1,900 and interest income of $2,990, less foreign exchange losses and
other miscellaneous expenses of $1,075. In 1994, miscellaneous income
of $78 was derived from gains on asset sales offset by foreign exchange
losses and the write-down of an investment.
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations, continued
Income taxes and net income: The company had income from
continuing operations before taxes and the cumulative effect of changes
in accounting of $982 in 1995 compared to a loss of $13,079 in 1994.
Income taxes resulted in an expense of $33 in 1995 compared to a benefit
of $586 in 1994. The 1995 tax expense is lower than the statutory rates
due to the availability of net operating losses in the United States,
while the 1994 tax benefit was due to the allocation of income taxes to
discontinued operations.
In 1994, discontinued operations including related disposition
gains provided income of $6,048, while the adoption of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 112 resulted in an accounting charge
of $739.
Net income for the nine month period of 1995 was $949 compared to
a loss of $7,184 in the corresponding period of 1994.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The company's operating activities used cash of $568 in the nine
month period of 1995 compared with $7,547 in 1994, which includes
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations, continued
$11,031 from discontinued operations. Net investing activities in 1995
used $10,173 of cash, which, together with a special $2.00 per share
dividend payment (amounting to $17,835) resulted in a net decrease in
cash and short-term investments of $27,368. In 1994, the cash shortfall
from operating activities of $7,574 was funded by investing activities
and borrowing.
On September 29, 1995, the company secured a two year $40 million
syndicated line of credit. The availability of this line of credit is
reduced by any letters of credit outstanding. At September 30, 1995,
the company had no outstanding borrowings and $6,793 in outstanding
letters of credit.
The company believes that its cash and short-term investments,
together with its lines of credit and funds generated from operations
will be adequate to cover foreseeable future requirements.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Valeo (French parent company) and Valeo Engine Cooling, Inc.
filed on March 7, 1995, a complaint in the New York State Supreme
Court asserting breach of contract and other wrongdoing in
connection with the company's sale of its manufacturing subsidiary,
Lake Center Industries, Inc., against the company and its financial
advisor, Dillon Read & Co. Valeo was an unsuccessful bidder for
Lake Center. The plaintiffs allege they have suffered actual
damages of $290 in connection with preparing their bid and also
seek to recover $7,000 on a theory of unjust enrichment,
unspecified damages for lost profits, and an additional $10,000 in
punitive damages. The company will vigorously defend this suit,
which it believes to be without merit and further believes that the
outcome will not have a material adverse effect on its financial
condition.
