                                                      PART I

Item 1.  BUSINESS

         Reynolds, Smith and Hills, Inc. (the Company) is a professional service
firm  operating  in the  engineering,  architectural  design  and  environmental
services industry. The Company was incorporated in the state of Florida in 1989.
As used herein,  the Company refers to Reynolds,  Smith and Hills,  Inc. and its
subsidiaries.

         The  Company  provides  a full  range  of  architectural,  engineering,
planning  and  environmental  services  to public  and  private  sector  clients
primarily in the Southeastern United States.  Specific industry markets are also
served  nationally  and  internationally.  Services  are  provided  through  the
following market-focused programs of the Company:

         *        Transportation   -  Services  are  provided  to   governmental
                  agencies and private  entities and include  planning,  design,
                  environmental,  and  construction  engineering  and inspection
                  services  for  various  modes  of  transportation   (including
                  highways and bridges, mass transit, rail and port).

         *        Aviation - Services are provided to governmental  agencies and
                  private  entities  (including air carriers and  manufacturers)
                  and include planning,  design, and environmental  services for
                  airfields, terminals, and support buildings.

         *        Aerospace  and  Defense  -  Services  are  provided  to  NASA,
                  Department of Defense,  Spaceport  Florida Authority and major
                  aerospace   contractors.   The  Company  develops  launch  and
                  processing  facilities for the Shuttle and expendable vehicles
                  including the latest multi-use launch pads.

         *        Public   Infrastructure  -  Services  are  provided  to  local
                  government and quasi-governmental  agencies.  Services include
                  planning,  evaluation,  architectural and engineering  design,
                  permitting,  and construction  administration for road, water,
                  wastewater,   storm  water  and  solid  waste  systems.  These
                  services are also provided for public facilities such as parks
                  and public buildings.

         *        Commercial  -  Services  are   provided  to   commercial   and
                  industrial   entities  engaged  in  planning,   designing  and
                  construction   of  a  wide  variety  of  structures  and  land
                  development  (including  office  buildings  and office  parks,
                  warehouses,   distribution   and   manufacturing   facilities,
                  financial facilities, and data centers).

         *        Institutional  -  Services  are  provided  to public  agencies
                  engaged in governmental,  educational,  recreational,  medical
                  and  scientific  facilities,  and land  development.  Services
                  include planning and designing of a wide variety of structures
                  (including schools and campus master planning, courthouses and
                  other governmental buildings,

                                        3

                  research  and  technical   facilities,   community  parks  and
                  recreational facilities, and media centers).

         Competition.  The engineering and  architectural  services  industry is
highly  competitive.  The Company's  competitors include large national firms as
well as many small local  firms.  The Company  competes  with these firms on the
basis  of  technical  capabilities,  qualifications  of  personnel,  reputation,
quality and price. Additionally, a local presence is important in certain areas.
No one firm currently dominates a significant portion of the industry.

         Major  Customers.  For each of the years ended March 31, 1999, 1998 and
1997,  approximately  80% of the  Company's  business  was with  departments  or
agencies of federal,  state and local  governments.  Contracts  with the Florida
Department of  Transportation  provided  approximately 35% of total revenues for
each of the fiscal years 1999,  1998 and 1997. The loss of a significant  client
such as the Florida  Department of Transportation  would have a material adverse
effect on the  Company.  No other  customer  accounted  for 10% or more of total
revenues.

         Backlog.  Gross revenue backlog is the estimated revenue from contracts
entered  into with  clients,  less that  portion  which has been  recognized  as
revenue.  Backlog is subject to revision due to cancellations,  modifications or
changes  in the  scope  of  projects.  There  can be no  assurance  that  signed
contracts  will  ultimately  be authorized or will not be canceled by clients in
accordance with their terms. Net revenue backlog is estimated  revenue excluding
subconsultant and other direct costs and more accurately reflects the amounts to
be earned for activities performed by the Company.

         The  Company's  gross  backlog  at March  31,  1999 was  $34.3  million
compared to $29.5  million at March 31, 1998.  Net backlog was $25.7  million at
March 31, 1999 as compared to $21.8 million at March 31, 1998. Approximately $27
million of services included in the Company's gross backlog as of March 31, 1999
will be performed in fiscal year 2000. The Company expects additional revenue in
fiscal year 2000 from sales generated  during the year which are not included in
the March 31, 1999 backlog.

         Governmental  Contracts.  Some service  contracts  with  departments or
agencies of federal,  state, and local  governments are subject to renegotiation
of profits or termination at the election of the government.  The Company is not
aware of any adjustments which would have a material impact on the Company.

         Compliance with Environmental Laws. Compliance with federal,  state and
local  regulations which have been enacted or adopted relating to the protection
of the  environment is not expected to have any material effect upon the capital
expenditures,  earnings and competitive position of the Company.  However,  such
compliance   by  the   Company's   clients   may   require   the  need  for  the
environmental-related services which the Company provides.

         Employees.  At March 31, 1999 the Company  employed  approximately  419
persons.

Item 2.   PROPERTIES

         The Company leases its principal office space in Jacksonville,  Florida
and  seven  branches  occupy  leased  office  space  in  the  following  Florida
locations: Ft. Myers, Merritt Island, Miami, Orlando,  Plantation,  Tallahassee,
and Tampa.  The  Company  also  maintains  leased  offices  in Flint,  Michigan,
Houston, Texas, and Naperville,  Illinois. In addition, the Company leases space
for construction  sites at approximately six locations in Florida.  These leases
expire at various dates through 2005. The current  facilities are sufficient for
the operation of the business.

Item 3.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         The Company is subject to lawsuits  that arise in the normal  course of
business  involving  claims  typical  of those  filed  against  engineering  and
architectural   professions,   alleging  primarily  professional  errors  and/or
omissions.  The Company maintains professional liability insurance which insures
against  risk  within the policy  limits.  There can be no  assurances  that the
policy limits are sufficient to cover all claims. There are no legal proceedings
pending or, to the  knowledge  of the  Company,  threatened  against the Company
which in  management's  opinion  would  have a  material  adverse  effect on the
Company's financial condition.

Item 4.   SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the quarter ended
March 31, 1999.

           AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         The following  table sets forth the  percentage of net service  revenue
represented by the items in the Company's consolidated statements of income:

                                  ======    ======    ======


Gross Revenue:

         Revenue for fiscal 1999 was $42.9  million as compared to $37.1 million
for fiscal 1998.  This 16% increase was due  primarily to increased  revenues in
the transportation and institutional programs. Revenue for fiscal 1998 was $37.1
million as compared to $39.1 million for fiscal 1997.

                                        8

<PAGE>



This 5% decrease was due primarily to decreased sales in the  institutional  and
aviation  programs.  In addition,  the design phases for a few large projects in
the  institutional  and aviation  programs  were  completed  and had entered the
construction  administration  phase in fiscal  1998.  This  phase is less  labor
intensive resulting in comparatively lower revenues. Gross backlog decreased 10%
in fiscal 1998 from fiscal 1997 and net backlog decreased 6% in fiscal 1998 from
fiscal 1997.

         For each of the  fiscal  years  ended  March 31,  1999,  1998 and 1997,
approximately  80% of the Company's  revenues were  generated from public sector
clients.  For  each of the  same  periods,  approximately  35% of the  Company's
revenues  resulted  from  services   provided  to  the  Florida   Department  of
Transportation.

Subcontract and Other Direct Costs:

         Subcontract and other direct costs (ODC's)  increased 9% in fiscal 1999
from fiscal 1998.  This is a direct  result of  increases  in the  institutional
program's  revenue.  ODC's for fiscal 1998 decreased 11% from fiscal 1997.  This
decrease  occurred  primarily in the  institutional  and aviation  programs as a
result of the change in  projects  from  design to  construction  administration
stage as discussed above.

Net Service Revenue:

         Net service  revenue  was $31.6  million for fiscal 1999 as compared to
$26.7 million for fiscal 1998.  This 18% increase was the result of increases in
gross  revenues as discussed  above.  Net service  revenue was $26.7 million for
fiscal 1998 as compared to $27.4 million for fiscal 1997. This 2% decrease was a
result of decreases in gross revenues as discussed above.

Cost of Services:

         Cost of services  represents  direct  labor costs  associated  with the
generation  of net service  revenues.  Cost of services,  as a percentage of net
service revenue,  continued to improve to 37.8%, 39.2%, and 39.5%,  respectively
for fiscal years ended March 31, 1999, 1998, and 1997. This percentage  reflects
improving project  efficiency.  Gross profit, as a result,  has also improved at
62.2%, 60.8% and 60.5% for fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses:

         Selling,  general and  administrative  (SG&A) expenses consist of labor
costs of operational  personnel not utilized on projects (i.e.  indirect labor),
labor costs of administrative and support personnel,  office rent, depreciation,
insurance, and other operating expenses.

         SG&A expenses  increased 22% to $18.7 million in fiscal 1999 from $15.3
million in fiscal 1998. This increase was due primarily to a net 20% increase in
personnel,  resulting in increases in indirect labor and related  benefits.  The


                                        9

<PAGE>



Orlando and Ft. Myers,  Florida offices moved into larger office space,  and new
offices were  established in Flint,  Michigan,  Houston,  Texas, and Naperville,
Illinois. As a result, there were increases in rent, telephone, leased computer,
software license,  consultant and travel expenses.  The Company also acquired an
eleven  person  architectural  firm in Miami,  Florida  which also  resulted  in
increases in payroll and related benefits, travel, and amortization of goodwill.
There were also increases in  professional  fees related to project  litigation.
SG&A  expenses  decreased to $15.3  million in fiscal 1998 from $15.6 million in
fiscal 1997.  This 2% decrease was due primarily to a decrease in indirect labor
and related benefits, and a decrease in temporary staffing.

Net Income:

         Net income was  $581,000  in 1999,  $567,000 in 1998,  and  $593,000 in
1997.  The  increase in fiscal  1999 was a result of  increased  gross  revenues
offset  by  increases  in costs  of  services  and  general  and  administrative
expenses.  The  decrease in 1998 from 1997 was due  primarily to the decrease in
net service revenue (gross revenue less subcontract costs) as discussed above.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company's liquidity and capital measurements are set forth below:

                                          March 31
                                      ---------------
                                   1999     1998     1997
                                 ------   ------   ------

Working capital (in thousands)   $3,508   $3,926   $2,781

Current ratio                    1.53:1   1.59:1   1.42:1

Ratio of liabilities to equity   1.16:1   1.25:1   1.38:1

         Cash flows from  operations  were  negative  for the fiscal  year ended
March 31, 1999 due primarily to an increase in accounts  receivable and unbilled
service revenue balances. These increases were in conjunction with the growth in
revenue.  For  fiscal  years  ended  March  31,  1998 and 1997 cash  flows  from
operations  were  positive.  The Company has made a  significant  investment  of
working capital in information  technology over the last several years. Payments
on notes payable and long-term debt totaled $55,000 in fiscal 1999.

         The Company  has in place a line of credit  with a bank which  provides
for  additional  borrowing up to $2,000,000 at March 31, 1999,  with interest at
the lower of the bank's  prime  rate plus .1% or LIBOR plus 2.8%.  There were no
borrowings  outstanding under the line of credit at March 31, 1999. In addition,
the Company has also secured a committed credit facility of $2,000,000 which may
be  used  for the  acquisition  or  merger  of  other  architectural/engineering
companies.  The interest  rate on this facility is the lower of the bank's prime

                                       10

<PAGE>



rate or LIBOR plus 2.55%. These borrowing agreements, which expire September 30,
1999,  contain  covenants  related to working capital and debt to net worth. The
Company is in compliance with all provisions of these lines of credit.

         The Company believes that its existing  financial  resources,  together
with its cash flow from  operations  and its unused  bank line of  credit,  will
provide  sufficient  capital  to fund  its  operations  for  fiscal  2000.  This
statement is based on information that is currently available.

BUSINESS ACQUIRED
- -----------------

         On May 7, 1998, the Company  acquired all of the outstanding  shares of
Lemuel Ramos and Associates,  Inc., an eleven person  architectural firm located
in Miami,  Florida. The Company paid cash of $387,000 and signed a $300,000 note
payable to obtain the company.  The acquisition has been accounted for using the
purchase  method of accounting,  and,  accordingly,  the purchase price has been
allocated to the assets  purchased  and the  liabilities  assumed based upon the
fair market values at the date of acquisition.  The excess of the purchase price
over the fair  values of the net assets was  $708,000  and has been  recorded as
goodwill,  which is being amortized on a straight-line  basis over 15 years. The
fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are as follows:

         Fair value of assets acquired      $  71,000
         Goodwill                             708,000
                                              -------
           Total purchase price               779,000
         Less:
           Cash paid                          387,000
           Note payable to seller             300,000
                                              -------
         Liabilities assumed                $  92,000
                                            =========


Pro forma income  statements are not included due to the  insignificance  of the
acquisition.

YEAR 2000
- ---------

State of Readiness:
         The  Company  is in process  of  preparing  its  computer  systems  and
applications for the Year 2000. This process involves developing and acting on a
plan for the Year 2000 issue.  It includes  identifying and  communicating  with
external  service  providers to  ascertain  what steps they are taking to remedy
their Year 2000 issues,  as well as modifying or replacing  certain hardware and
software maintained by the Company. Most of the Company's information technology
systems were purchased from vendors who have represented that these systems will
not be affected by the change of century  beginning January 1, 2000. The Company
maintains  contact with third party vendors to monitor their  progress with Year
2000  issues.  Management  expects to have  substantially  all of its  currently
identified  system and  application  changes  completed in the second quarter of
fiscal 2000 (September 30, 1999).

                                       11

<PAGE>



         The Company has been informed by its third party vendors,  and has also
internally   ascertained,   that  its  computer   applications  related  to  the
development and processing of  architectural  and engineering  documents are not
date-driven and will not be affected by Year 2000 issues. In addition,  hardware
supporting these  applications has already been upgraded to respond correctly to
the Year 2000 issue. These upgrades have been in process over the last few years
as part of the Company's ongoing technological advancements.

         The Company has identified three material operating systems that may be
affected by the Year 2000 issue.  They are the general ledger  accounting system
(including  billings),  the third party payroll service, and  telecommunications
systems. Upgrades related to the general ledger accounting software and hardware
have been  completed.  The Company is  currently in its fiscal year 2000 and the
general ledger system,  including billings, is functioning  properly.  The third
party  payroll  service  states that its systems are not expected to  experience
Year  2000  related  problems  and  has  disclosed  this in its  recent  10K and
subsequent  10Q filings.  Upgrades  for  hardware  and  software  related to the
payroll service have been made and are currently being tested. Actual use of the
upgraded  payroll  system is  expected  by the second  quarter  of fiscal  2000.
Upgrades to the Company's main and branch offices telecommunications systems are
in process and are also expected to be completed by the second quarter of fiscal
2000.  Finally,  the  Company  has been  given  assurances  by its  third  party
telecommunication   hardware  and  service  providers  that  there  will  be  no
interruption in telecommunications resulting from the Year 2000 issue.

         The  Company's  primary  non-information  technology  systems are those
related to the buildings in which the Company leases space.  These include,  but
are not  limited  to,  heating  and air  conditioning  systems,  elevators,  and
security  access systems.  The owners of the properties have  represented to the
Company  that the systems  should be able to respond  correctly to the Year 2000
issue in the second quarter of fiscal 2000. Any risk associated with the failure
of these systems, is not expected to be material to the Company's business.

Associated Costs:
         The Company expects that the principal  costs will be those  associated
with  testing of its  computer  applications.  The total cost to the  Company of
these Year 2000  activities has not been, and is not anticipated to be, material
to its  financial  position or results of  operations  in any given year.  These
costs and completion dates are based on management's best estimates,  which were
derived  utilizing  numerous  assumptions of future events including third party
modification  plans.  There can be no assurances  that these  estimates  will be
achieved.

Risks:
         The risks associated with a failure of systems to respond  correctly to
the Year 2000 are delays in  production of  architectural/engineering  documents
due to hardware,  software,  telecommunication or other problems between offices
and clients (wide area network file sharing and transmission).  In addition,  to
the extent that the Company's material vendors,  subconsultants,  customers, and
financial  institutions,  experience  material  adverse  effects  from Year 2000
issues, the Company's own operations may be affected.  Various factors,  many of


                                       12

<PAGE>



which are beyond the Company's control,  could cause actual plans and results to
differ materially from those  contemplated by management.  Based on management's
current  assessment  and  estimates,  the Company does not believe that the Year
2000 issue will have a material impact on its business,  financial  condition or
operating  results.  However,  there can be no assurance that the failure of any
such  system  will not have a material  adverse  effect on or result in material
litigation brought against the Company.

Contingency Plans:
         In the event that the material  core systems fail to function  properly
given the Year 2000 problems,  the Company has established  various  contingency
plans to maintain  operations.  Payroll services could be processed  through the
general ledger or processed  manually.  Architectural  and engineering  document
production  could be  developed  independently  in each office and  delivered to
respective parties by mail.


Item 7a.          QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

         The Company  believes that its exposure to market risks is  immaterial.
The Company holds no market-risk  sensitive instruments for trading purposes. At
present, the Company does not employ any derivative financial instruments, other
financial  instruments or derivative  commodity  instruments to hedge any market
risk, and the Company does not currently plan to employ them in the near future.
To the extent that the Company has  borrowings  outstanding  under either of the
credit  facilities,  there  may  be  market  risk  relating  to the  amounts  of
borrowings due to the fact that interest  rates under the credit  facilities are
variable.  The Company's  exposure is immaterial due to the short-term nature of
these borrowings.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Reynolds, Smith and Hills, Inc.
Jacksonville, Florida


We have audited the accompanying  consolidated balance sheets of Reynolds, Smith
and  Hills,  Inc.  and its  subsidiaries  as of March 31,  1999 and 1998 and the
related consolidated  statements of income,  shareholders' equity and cash flows
for  each  of the  three  years  in the  period  ended  March  31,  1999.  These
consolidated  financial  statements  are  the  responsibility  of the  Company's
management.  Our  responsibility is to express an opinion on these  consolidated
financial statements based on our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable  assurance about whether the  consolidated  financial  statements are
free of material  misstatement.  An audit includes  examining,  on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An
audit also includes  assessing the accounting  principals  used and  significant
estimates  made by  management,  as well as  evaluating  the  overall  financial
statement  presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable  basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion,  such consolidated  financial  statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Reynolds, Smith and Hills, Inc. and
its  subsidiaries  as of  March  31,  1999 and  1998  and the  results  of their
operations  and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
March 31, 1999 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principals.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         Basis of Presentation - Reynolds,  Smith and Hills,  Inc. (the Company)
         is a  professional  service  firm  operating  in  the  engineering  and
         architectural  design services  industry.  The Company  provides a full
         range  of  architectural,   engineering,   planning  and  environmental
         services.

         The  consolidated  financial  statements  include  the  accounts of the
         Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
         transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

         Use  of  Estimates  -  The  preparation  of  financial   statements  in
         conformity  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  requires
         management to make estimates and  assumptions  that affect the reported
         amounts of assets and liabilities  and disclosure of contingent  assets
         and  liabilities  at the  date  of the  financial  statements  and  the
         reported  amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported  period.
         Actual results could differ from those estimates.

         Revenue  Recognition - Revenue from contract  services is recognized on
         the percentage-of-  completion method. Revenue is recorded as costs are
         incurred,  and  profit  is  recognized  on each  contract  based on the
         percentage  that incurred costs bear to estimated  total costs.  In the
         event of an anticipated  loss, the entire amount of the loss is charged
         to current operations.

         The Company incurs  subcontract  and other direct costs  (out-of-pocket
         expenses) some of which are passed through directly to its clients. The
         Company  believes that revenue  excluding  subcontract and other direct
         costs,  more  accurately  reflects  the amounts  earned for  activities
         performed by the Company.  Accordingly,  the Company reports such costs
         as a reduction of gross revenue to arrive at net service revenue.

         Unbilled service revenue  represents  revenues  recognized in excess of
         amounts billed.  Unearned service revenue represents billings in excess
         of revenues  recognized.  Unbilled  service  revenues which will not be
         collected during the next year are not significant.

         Property  and  Equipment - Property  and  equipment  is stated at cost.
         Depreciation is computed  principally on the straight-line  method over
         the  estimated  useful  lives of the  assets.  Depreciation  of  assets
         recorded  under  capitalized  leases is computed  on the  straight-line
         method over the lesser of the estimated useful life of the asset or the
         term of the lease.  Property and equipment is periodically  reviewed by
         management for impairment  whenever changes in  circumstances  indicate
         that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

         Identifiable Intangible Assets - Identifiable intangible assets consist
         of values allocated to key employees,  contract backlog, proposals, and
         a covenant not to compete and are being  amortized  on a  straight-line
         basis over periods of 2 to 10 years.

         Cost in Excess of Net Assets of Acquired  Businesses-Cost  in excess of
         net  assets  of  acquired   businesses   is  being   amortized  on  the
         straight-line  method over periods varying from fifteen to forty years.
         The carrying value of cost in excess of net assets of acquired business
         is  periodically  reviewed by  management  and  impairment,  if any, is
         recognized when the projected undiscounted cash flows are less than the
         carrying value.

         Income  Taxes - The  Company  and its  subsidiaries  file  consolidated
         Federal income tax returns. Deferred income taxes result from temporary
         differences  which arise from certain  transactions  being  reported in
         different  periods  for  financial  statement  purposes  than  for  tax
         purposes.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized  using an
         asset and liability  approach and are based on differences  between the
         financial  statement  and tax basis of  assets  and  liabilities  using
         presently enacted tax rates.

         Basic  Earnings  Per Share - Basic  earnings  per share is  computed by
         dividing net income by the  weighted  average  number of common  shares
         outstanding.  Options  outstanding  to  purchase  common  stock  had no
         significant dilutive effect.

         Cash Equivalents - The Company  considers cash on hand and cash held in
         banks subject to immediate withdrawal to represent cash.

         New Accounting Standards - For the fiscal year ended March 31, 1999 the
         Company adopted SFAS No. 130 "Reporting Comprehensive Income", SFAS No.
         131   "Disclosure   About   Segments  of  an  Enterprise   and  Related
         Information",  and SFAS No. 132 "Employer's  Disclosures about Pensions
         and Other Post-Retirement  Benefits". The impact of these statements is
         not material on the financial statements.


2.       ACQUIRED BUSINESS

         On May 7, 1998, the Company  acquired all of the outstanding  shares of
         Lemuel Ramos and Associates,  Inc., an eleven person architectural firm
         located in Miami, Florida. The Company paid cash of $387,000 and signed
         a $300,000 note payable to obtain the company. The acquisition has been
         accounted   for  using  the  purchase   method  of   accounting,   and,
         accordingly,  the  purchase  price  has been  allocated  to the  assets
         purchased and the liabilities assumed based upon the fair market values
         at the date of  acquisition.  The excess of the purchase price over the
         fair values of the net assets was $708,000 and has been recorded as

                                       23

         At March 31, 1999, the Company had  $2,000,000 of additional  borrowing
         available under a credit line, with interest at the lower of the bank's
         prime rate plus .1% or LIBOR plus 2.8%.  In  addition,  the Company has
         secured a committed credit facility of $2,000,000 which is reserved for
         the potential acquisition or merger of other  architectural/engineering
         firms.  The interest  rate on this  facility is the lower of the bank's
         prime rate or LIBOR  plus  2.55%.  These  borrowing  agreements,  which
         expire September 30, 1999, require the Company to be in compliance with
         financial  covenants relating to working capital and debt to net worth.
         Substantially  all of the  Company's  tangible  assets  are  pledged as
         security.

         The   Company   leases   certain   facilities   and   equipment   under
         noncancellable  leases  expiring in various years through 2005. Some of
         the operating  leases provide that the Company pay taxes,  maintenance,
         insurance and other occupancy costs applicable to these premises.  Rent
         expense for the years ended March 31, 1999,  1998 and 1997  amounted to

8.       CONTINGENCIES

         The Company is subject to lawsuits  involving  claims  typical of those
         filed   against   engineering   and   architectural   professions.   In
         management's  opinion the  potential  losses not  covered by  insurance
         would not be material to the Company's financial position.

         For  each  of  the  years  ended  March  31,   1999,   1998  and  1997,
         approximately  80% of the  Company's  business is with  departments  or
         agencies of Federal, state and local governments.  For the same periods
         approximately  35%  of  the  Company's  gross  revenues  resulted  from
         services provided to the Florida  Department of  Transportation.  These
         contracts  may  be  subject  to  renegotiation  or  termination  at the
         election of the  government.  The Company is subject to examinations by
         representatives of certain governmental  agencies for which it provides
         services.  In management's opinion the results of any examination would
         not have a significant effect on the Company's financial position.


9.       EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN

         The  Company  sponsors  a Profit  Sharing  Plan which  qualifies  under
         Section   401(k)  of  the  Internal   Revenue  Code.  The  Plan  allows
         participating  employees to  contribute  from 2% to 15% of their earned
         compensation  to the plan.  The Company  contributes to the plan 25% of
         each   participant's   contribution,   up  to  the  6%   level  of  the
         participant's  contribution.  For the years ended March 31, 1999,  1998
         and 1997 the  Company  contributed  $161,000,  $163,000  and  $167,000,
         respectively.  Participants  in the plan have the  option  to  purchase
         shares of the Company's common stock. At March 31, 1999,  96,000 shares
         of Company  stock have been issued and 294,000  shares are reserved for
         future issuance under the plan.


10.      STOCK BONUS AND OPTION PLAN

         The Company has a stock bonus plan that  provides  for the  awarding of
         the Company's  common stock to selected  employees.  At March 31, 1999,
         34,000 shares are reserved for future issuance under the plan.

         The Company has  considered  SFAS No. 123 and has  determined  that its
         application is not material to the financial statements.

11.      FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

         The Company used the following  methods and assumptions to estimate the
         fair value of the following financial instrument:

                  Debt.  Interest  rates  that are  currently  available  to the
         Company  for  issuance  of  debt  with  similar   terms  and  remaining
         maturities  are used to estimate fair value for debt  instruments.  The
         Company  believes the carrying amount is a reasonable  estimate of such
         fair value.
