3. Long-Term Debt
The Company has a financing agreement with a commercial bank. The
agreement, as amended and restated in December 1997, provides for a
$15,000,000 five-year secured term loan and a $4,000,000 unsecured revolving
credit facility that matures in December 1999. Both loans bear interest at
the bank's prime rate but may, at the option of the Company, be converted into
LIBOR-based loans that bear interest at LIBOR plus 1.65% for the term loan and
LIBOR plus 1.5% for the revolving credit facility. The agreement also allows
the Company to modify the interest characteristics of all or a portion of the
outstanding loans by establishing a fixed rate with the bank or through the
use of interest rate protection agreements with the bank.
As part of the same amended and restated agreement, the Company
negotiated a $25,000,000 secured line of credit to provide temporary financing
for capital expenditures and acquisitions until such time as permanent
financing can be arranged. Any borrowings under this facility would be at the
bank's prime rate or, at the discretion of the Company, may be converted into
a LIBOR-based loan bearing interest at LIBOR plus 2%. The capital expenditure
and acquisition line of credit is available, if not extended, through
September 1998 and is subject to approval by the bank.

</TABLE>
The additional amounts borrowed in the first half of 1998 were used to
partially fund the modernization and expansion project at the Texas facility.
Interest costs of $204,000 and $305,000 were capitalized as part of the Texas
project in the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1998, respectively.
In April 1998, the Company entered into an interest rate protection
agreement with its bank (the "Swap Agreement") to modify the interest
characteristics of $9,000,000 of its then-outstanding debt from a variable
rate to a fixed rate. The Swap Agreement involves the exchange of interest
obligations based on a fixed rate of 7.45%, for interest obligations based on
variable 30-day LIBOR rates plus 1.65%, over the five-year life of the Swap
Agreement without an exchange of notional amounts upon which such interest
obligations are based. The interest rate differential to be paid or received
as rates change will be accrued and recognized as an adjustment to interest
expense. The related amount payable to or receivable from the bank will be
included as an adjustment to accrued expenses. To the extent amounts are not
material, the fair value of the Swap Agreement and changes in the fair value
as a result of changes in market interest rates will not be recognized in the
financial statements.
In the event of the early termination of the debt obligation, or an
early termination of the Swap Agreement, any realized gain or loss from the
Swap Agreement would be recognized as an adjustment to interest expense.
For amounts not otherwise fixed under the Swap Agreement, the Company
elected the LIBOR-based interest option for the debt outstanding under the
term loan.
The carrying amount of the Company's long-term debt approximates its
fair value.
4. Subsequent Event
In June 1998, the Company entered into negotiations with its bank to
amend its current financing agreement, as amended and restated in December
1997. As of July 15, 1998, the Company and the bank had agreed to the general
terms of a proposed amendment; however, the terms of the final signed
6
<PAGE> 7
amendment may differ from those described below.
The proposed amendment to the agreement would provide for an additional
$3,500,000, for a total of $18,500,000, on the five-year secured term loan. The
amended term loan's maturity would be extended from July 2003 to September 2003
and would require monthly principal repayments of approximately $220,000
beginning no later than October 1998. Interest-only payments would be required
through September 1998. The amended agreement would also fund a secured line of
credit of $5,000,000 for capital expenditures. The funded capital expenditure
line of credit would be used by the Company to partially finance the first phase
of the Arkansas modernization and expansion project and would require
interest-only payments until its maturity in July 2000. As a result of this line
of credit, the amended agreement would reduce the current $25,000,000 capital
expenditure and acquisition line of credit by $5,000,000 to $20,000,000. The
capital expenditure and acquisition line of credit would be available, if not
extended, through January 2000, rather than September 1998, and would remain
subject to approval by the bank. In addition, the amended agreement would
require the $4,000,000 revolving credit facility to be secured and would extend
its maturity from December 1999 to January 2000. All three of the facilities
would be secured by substantially all of the Company's assets bank's prime rate
plus a defined interest rate spread based upon the Company's then-current ratio
of total funded debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization (EBITDA). However, at the option of the Company, all or any portion
of the amounts outstanding could be converted into a LIBOR-based rate plus a
defined interest rate spread based upon the Company's then-current ratio of
total funded debt to EBITDA.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash provided by operating activities was $1,101,000 for the six
months ended June, 1998, as compared to $500,000 used in operating activities
for the six months ended June 30, 1997. The 1997 cash flows reflect the pay
off of the current liabilities of Corson Lime Company, the loss on the sale
of the Corson assets in June 1997 and the recognition of previously reserved
deferred tax assets.
The Company made $11,700,000 in capital expenditures in the first six
months of 1998, compared to $3,218,000 in the same period last year. Capital
expenditures of approximately $10,022,000 and $334,000 were related to the
modernization and expansion project at the Texas facility in the first six
months of 1998 and 1997, respectively. The Texas project includes the
installation of new stone crushing and handling systems, the addition of a
preheater to one of the existing kilns, additional storage, screening and
shipping capacity and a new support building housing a laboratory,
administrative offices and shop facilities.
The Texas project is being constructed in phases, and significant
progress has been made. The new support building and the stone crushing and
handling systems have been completed. The storage, screening and load-out
7
<PAGE> 8
improvements, as well as the preheater, should be completed by the fourth
quarter of 1998. The Texas improvements should allow the Company to better
serve its customers by improving both quality and service. With the
improvements, the Company expects to be in a better position to compete for
customers who currently cannot use the Company's lime in their processes. The
improvements will also result in lower operating costs and in a more efficient
utilization of the work force. The cost of the Texas modernization and
expansion project is expected to be approximately $23,000,000. This project
is being financed through a combination of internally generated funds from
operations, the proceeds from the sale of the Corson assets and certain
banking facilities.
The Company is also moving forward with the modernization and expansion
plans at the Arkansas plant. The Arkansas project will be constructed in two
phases. The first phase, scheduled for completion in 1999, includes the
addition of a new 1,200-ton per day (400,000-ton per year) rotary kiln, new
stone crushing and handling systems and new lime and ground calcium carbonate
storage and load-out facilities. The second phase of the project, which is
currently scheduled for construction in 2002, includes a rock transportation
system and additional lime storage facilities. However, significant increases
in product sales could result in an earlier implementation of the second phase
of the plan. Permit applications have been submitted, kiln system design is
being finalized and bid proposals have been requested for key components of
the project. The preliminary cost estimates for the project phases are
approximately $27,000,000 and $5,000,000, respectively. The project is
contingent upon satisfactory permitting from the various regulatory agencies.
The Company expects to finance this project through a combination of
internally generated funds from operations and/or alternative sources of
financing.
The Arkansas improvements should allow the Company to better serve its
customers by improving both quality and service while increasing the
production capacity of quicklime and hydrated lime. With the improvements,
the Company expects to be in a better position to compete for customers who
currently cannot use the Company's lime in their processes due to insufficient
production capacity at the plant or quality constraints. The planned
modernization and expansion project will increase both production and shipping
capacity, will lower operating costs and will allow for a more efficient
utilization of the work force.
The Company is not contractually committed to any planned capital
expenditures until actual orders are placed for equipment. As of June 30,
1998, the Company's liability for open equipment and construction orders, all
of which were related to the Texas modernization and expansion project,
totaled approximately $6,400,000. This amount, as well as other future
billings related to the Texas and Arkansas modernization and expansion
projects, will be recorded as work is performed and billed to the Company.
The Company has a financing agreement with a commercial bank. In June
1998, the Company entered into negotiations with its bank to amend its current
financing agreement, as amended and restated in December 1997. As of July 15,
1998, the Company and the bank have agreed to the general terms of a proposed
amendment; however, the terms of the final signed amendment may differ from
those described below.
8
<PAGE> 9
The proposed amendment to the agreement would provide for an additional
$3,500,000, for a total of $18,500,000, on the five-year secured term loan. The
amended term loan's maturity would be extended from July 2003 to September 2003
and would require monthly principal repayments of approximately $220,000
beginning no later than October 1998. Interest-only payments would be required
through September 1998. The amended agreement would also fund a secured line of
credit of $5,000,000 for capital expenditures. The funded capital expenditure
line of credit would be used by the Company to partially finance the first phase
of the Arkansas modernization and expansion project and would require
interest-only payments until its maturity in July 2000. As a result of this line
of credit, the amended agreement would reduce the current $25,000,000 capital
expenditure and acquisition line of credit by $5,000,000 to $20,000,000. The
capital expenditure and acquisition line of credit would be available, if not
extended, through January 2000, rather than September 1998, and would remain
subject to approval by the bank. In addition, the amended agreement would
require the $4,000,000 revolving credit facility to be secured and would extend
its maturity from December 1999 to January 2000. All three of the facilities
would be secured by substantially all of the Company's assets and would bear
interest at the bank's prime rate plus a defined interest rate spread based upon
the Company's then-current ratio of total funded debt to earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). However, at the option
of the Company, all or any portion of the amounts outstanding could be converted
into a LIBOR-based rate plus a defined interest rate spread based upon the
Company's then-current ratio of total funded debt to EBITDA.
As of June 30, 1998, the Company had $14,143,000 in debt outstanding
under the amended and restated term loan, up from the $3,238,000 at December
31, 1997. The additional borrowings in 1998 have been used to partially fund
the modernization and expansion project at the Texas facility.
Results of Operations
Revenues decreased from $10,350,000 in the second quarter of 1997 to
$8,016,000 in the second quarter of 1998, a decrease of $2,334,000, or 22.6%.
Excluding 1997 revenues from Corson Lime Company, the assets of which were
sold in June 1997, revenues for the second quarter increased by $670,000, or
9.1%, from 1997, resulting from a 9.0% increase in sales volume and a 0.1%
increase in prices. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1998 were
$14,485,000, a decrease of $3,673,000, or 20.2%, from the $18,158,000 reported
for the six months ended June 30, 1997. Excluding 1997 revenues from Corson,
revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1998 increased by $1,230,000, or
9.3%, from 1997, resulting from a 9.4% increase in sales volume and a 0.1%
decrease in prices.
The Company's gross profit was $2,169,000 for the second quarter of
1998, compared to $1,118,000 for the second quarter of 1997, a 94.0% increase.
Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenues for the second quarter of 1998
increased to 27.1% from 10.8% in 1997. Gross profit increased to $3,445,000
for the first six months of 1998, from $1,713,000 for the first six months of
1997, a 101.1% increase. Gross profit margin for the six months ended June
30, 1998 increased to 23.8%, from 9.4% in 1997. The 1998 gross profit and
gross profit margins were improved by eliminating the high production costs at
the Corson facility. The favorable impact resulting from the elimination of
the Corson operations was partially offset by higher fuel costs in 1998 at
9
<PAGE> 10
both the Texas and Arkansas facilities and some inevitable production
inefficiencies in Texas as a result of the extensive construction activities
at that facility. The 1997 gross profit and gross profit margins were
negatively impacted by the loss on the sale of the Corson assets.
Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") decreased by
$237,000, or 20.5%, to $917,000 in the second quarter of 1998, as compared to
$1,154,000 in the second quarter of 1997. SG&A as a percentage of sales
increased to 11.5%, from 11.2% a year earlier. SG&A decreased by $427,000, or
18.8%, to $1,843,000 in the first six months of 1998, as compared to
$2,270,000 in the first six months of 1997, and as a percentage of sales
increased to 12.7% from 12.5%. The SG&A expense decrease was primarily
attributable to the shut down of the Corson operations after the sale in June
1997.
Interest expense in the second quarter of 1998 was $3,000 as compared to
$168,000 in 1997. Interest expense for the first six months of 1998 was
$6,000 as compared to $301,000 in 1997. The 1998 decrease was attributable to
the capitalization of substantially all incurred interest costs as part of the
Texas modernization and expansion project. Interest costs of approximately
$204,000 and $305,000 were capitalized in the second quarter and first six
months of 1998, respectively.
The Company reported net income of $1,063,000 ($0.27 per share) during
the second quarter of 1998, compared to net income of $2,176,000 ($0.55 per
share) during the second quarter of 1997. Net income in the second quarter of
1997 was favorably impacted by the recognition of previously reserved deferred
tax assets of $2,300,000 ($0.59 per share) and unfavorably impacted by the
loss (net of tax benefit) on the sale of the Corson Lime Company assets of
$405,000 ($0.10 per share). For the first six months of 1998, the Company
reported net income of $1,366,000 ($0.34 per share), compared to net income of
$1,688,000 ($0.43 per share) in the first six months of 1997.

ITEM 5: OTHER INFORMATION
The Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") recently amended its
proxy rules to provide that a registrant, such as the Company, may
specify, in its proxy statement or form of proxy for its annual meeting
of shareholders, that proxies solicited by the registrant will confer
discretionary authority to vote with regard to matters not identified
in the proxy statement that may be raised at the meeting, including
matters to be raised by shareholders that were not properly submitted to
the registrant as shareholder proposals for inclusion in the
registrant's proxy statement and form of proxy in accordance with SEC
Rule 14a-8, if the registrant did not have notice of such matters at
least 45 days before the date on which the registrant first mailed its
proxy materials for the prior year's annual meeting of shareholders, or
by such other date as may be specified in an advance notice provision
adopted by the registrant. The Company has not adopted an advance
notice provision. The Company first mailed its proxy materials for its
1998 Annual Meeting of Shareholders on April 15, 1998. Under the SEC's
amended proxy rules, the 45-day deadline for notice to the Company of
non-Rule 14a-8 matters to be raised at the Company's 1999 Annual Meeting
of Shareholders is thus March 2, 1999.
