ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
-----------------------------------------------------------
and Results of Operations
-------------------------
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
For the six months ended March 31, 1997, the net loss of
$3,255,853 compared to the net loss of $1,817,290 during the same
period of 1996. Losses during the six month period reflect the
continuation of losses from the year ended September 30, 1996.
Revenue:
Revenue from P.W. Stephens Contractors, Inc., QHI Stephens
Contractors, Inc. and P.W. Stephens Residential, Inc., (collectively
referred to as "P.W. Stephens"), increased by $368,000 or (5%) to
$8,056,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1997, from $7,688,000
during the same period in 1996. The both the commercial and
residential abatement business revenue remained constant during this
same period
P.W. Stephens Contractors, Inc. and P.W. Stephens Services,
Inc., formerly known as VonGuard Holdings, Inc., (now collectively
referred to as "P.W. Stephens St. Louis") revenue during the six
months ended December 31, 1996 increased by $74,000 or (3%) to
$2,891,000 compared to the same period of 1996.
Kelar Controls, Inc.'s, ("Kelar"), revenues during the six
months ended March 31, 1997 increased by $400,000 or (200%) to
$1,192,000 compared to the same period of 1996. Kelar's revenues
increased due to the recognition of revenue from its prior energy
savings sales contract, which was treated as a revenue for accounting
purposes during the current year.
Gross Profit:
P.W. Stephens achieved a gross profit of 3.3% during the six
months ended March 31, 1997, compared to 38.3% during the same period
in 1996. The decrease in gross profit margins reflect the impact of
two large jobs which the Company estimates will be at a loss. Reserves
for these losses were accrued for during the quarter ended December
31, 1996.
P.W. Stephens St. Louis achieved a gross profit of 23.6%
during the six months ended March 31, 1997, compared to 14.3% during
the same period in 1996. This increase reflect increased operating
efficiency.
Kelar's gross profit for the six months ended March 31,
1997, was 72.6%. This gross profit percentage includes $500,000 of
shared energy savings revenue. The project was completed in a prior
period and the cost incurred were charged to expense during that
period, as such only a minimal amount of costs are associated with
this revenue during the current period. Without this shared energy
savings revenue, Kelar's gross profit would have been substantially
less.
Selling, general and administrative expenses:
P.W. Stephens' selling, general and administrative expenses
during the quarter ended decreased by $574,000 (16%) to $2,933,000
compared to $3,507,000 during the six months ended March 31, 1996.
This decrease reflects a decline in administrative personnel and the
reduction in outside services.
P.W. Stephens St. Louis' selling, general and administrative
expenses during the six months increased by $21,000 (3.2%) to $662,00
compared to $641,000 during the six months ended March 31, 1996. This
decrease reflects the consolidation of office and warehouse into one
facility.
Kelar's selling, general and administrative expenses
remained constant with prior year.
EIF Holdings, Inc. ("EIF") administrative expenses for the
six months ended March 31, 1997 were $125,000, which did not
significantly change over the prior year.
Interest expense during the six months ended March 31, 1997,
was $623,000 compared to $209,000 during the prior year's six month
period ended March 31, 1996. The increase was mainly due to borrowing
from American Eco Corp. in order to fund the prior year's loss.

- -------------------------------
-7-

Corp., under a line of credit arrangement remained the main source of
capital. Frank Fradella, the Company's President has entered into
discussions with American Eco Corp. to for an option to acquire

transaction will be completed.
