Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(in thousands of dollars except share and per share amounts)
Financial Statement Content
The information contained herein reflects all adjustments which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of results for the
interim periods.
Inventories and Unamortized Costs on Contracts
March 31, December 31,
The major classifications of inventory are as 1996 1995
follows: (unaudited)
Construction materials, parts and supplies $2,605 $2,812
Unamortized costs on contracts 18,830 18,175
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
$21,435 $20,987
============================================================================
Stock Options and Warrants
At March 31, 1996, the company had options outstanding with respect to
947,358 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.
Earnings Per Share
Net primary earnings per share of common and common stock equivalents are
calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding,
plus the net additional number of shares which would be issuable upon the
execise of stock options and warrants, assuming that the company used the
proceeds received to repurchase outstanding shares at market prices.
Litigation and Contingencies
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
plantiffs 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)
Revenue: The company's revenue of $99,185 increased by 11% in the
first quarter of 1996 compared with $89,738 in the first quarter of 1995. The
increase in revenue was attributable to the substantial volume of new contract
awards in 1995 that is now starting to make a significant contribution to
revenue. The backlog of uncompleted contracts amounted to $615,293 at March
31, 1996, representing an increase of 45% over the March 31, 1995 backlog of
$424,883.
Gross margin: The company's gross margin of $8,625 increased by 24% in
the first quarter of 1996 over the corresponding $6,938 in 1995. The
percentage of gross margin to revenue increased to 8.7% in 1996 from 7.7% in
1995, reflecting a more profitable mix of construction contracts in 1996, as
the company continues to focus on higher margin construction opportunities.
General and administrative expense: General and administrative
expenses of $9,878 in 1996 were 12% higher than the corresponding figure of
$8,805 in 1995 due to ongoing business development activities in both the
construction and water and wastewater treatment businesses, combined with
increased international market development.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations, continued
Interest income: Interest income in the first quarter of 1996 declined
to $854 from $1,046 in the corresponding period of 1995 due to reduced cash
and short-term investment balances in 1996.
Interest expense: Interest expense of $157 in the first quarter of
1996, was essentially unchanged from the $201 in the first quarter of 1995.
Miscellaneous: Miscellaneous income of $622 in 1996 was primarily
attributable to gains on property dispositions.
Income taxes and net income: The company recorded income before taxes
of $66 in 1996, compared with a loss of $938 in 1995. Income taxes gave rise
to an expense of $549 in 1996 compared with $49 in 1995. In each year, income
tax expense was attributable to state and foreign income taxes, with higher
foreign taxes accounting for the increase in 1996 over 1995.
The net loss for the first quarter of 1996 amounted to $483, compared
with a net loss of $987 in 1995.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations, continued
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The company's operating activities utilized cash of $37,753 in the first
quarter of 1996, compared with $11,171 of cash generated in the first quarter
of 1995. The negative operating cash flow in 1996 is due to the start-up cash
requirements of new construction projects commencing in the first quarter of
1996, as well as the ongoing cash requirements of existing construction
projects which are expected to return cash to the company in the latter part
of 1996.
The company has a two-year $40 million syndicated line of credit which
expires on June 30, 1997. The availability of this line of credit is reduced
by any letters of credit which may be outstanding under the lines. At March
31, 1996, the company had $5,000 in outstanding borrowings and $6,548 in
outstanding letters of credit.
The company believes that its cash and short-term investments, together
with lines of credit and funds generated from operations and other sources
will be adequate to cover foreseeable future requirements.
