             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
             ----------------------------------------------------

                  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
                  ------------------------------------------


1.    A summary of the Company's significant accounting policies is presented on
      Page 17 of its 1997 Annual Shareholders' Report.

2.    In the opinion of Management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited
      consolidated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments
      (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly
      the financial position of the Company as of August 31, 1997, and the
      results of its operations and cash flows for the six-month periods ended
      August 31, 1997 and August 31, 1996.

3.    Effective March 10, 1997, the Company purchased certain assets of Hobson
      Galvanizing, Inc. for approximately $3.9 million which included a $250,000
      payment to the selling shareholders pursuant to a noncompete agreement.

4.    In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FAS No.
      128, "Earnings Per Share" ("FAS 128"). The adoption of FAS 128 is not
      expected to have a material impact on the Company's prior periods or
      present income per share calculations.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations


                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                             ---------------------

 Consolidated net sales were up 35% and 32% for the three month and six month
periods ending August 31, 1997 as compared to the same periods in 1996.  Net
sales in the Electrical Products Segment were up $1,553,000 or 20% for the three
month period ending August 31, 1997, and $3,524,000 or 24% for the six month
period ending August 31, 1997, as compared to the same periods in 1996.  Backlog
remains strong in the Electrical Segment at $10,650,000 compared to $7,941,000
in the prior year.   Net sales in the Galvanizing Segment were up $1,916,000 or
34% for the three month period ending August 31, 1997, and $3,041,000 or 26% for
the six month period ending August 31, 1997 as compared to the same periods in
1996, primarily due to the acquisition of Hobson Galvanizing, Inc. on March 10,
1997. Total pounds produced were 43,461,000 and 93,373,000 for the three and six
month periods ending August 31, 1997 compared to 37,407,000 and 82,710,000
during the same periods in 1996.  Hobson Galvanizing contributed $1,405,000 and
$2,972,000 in sales for the three and six month periods ending August 31, 1997
and produced 7,363,000 and 17,088,000 pounds respectively.  Volumes were down at
all galvanizing locations due to a slow down in project oriented work.  The year
to date average selling price increased to $.1529 per pound for 1997 from $.1370
in 1996.  Net sales in the Oil Field Products Segment were up 215% and 185% for
the three and six month periods ending August 31, 1997, as compared to the same
periods in 1996.  Significant quantities of plain end tubing from reliable
sources are beginning to be delivered and this segment is now concentrating its
efforts on increasing volumes of material processed.

 Consolidated operating income (net sales less cost of sales) for the three and
six month periods ending August 31, 1997, as compared to the same periods in
1996, were up 26% and 28% respectively.  Gross operating income in the
Electrical Products Segment was up 17% and 36% for the three and six month
periods ending August 31, 1997, as compared to the same periods in 1996 .  The
Calvert Company operated at a 15.2% operating margin versus a 5.3% operating
margin in the same period in 1996.  The Galvanizing Segment's operating  income
was up 29% and 25% for  the three and six month periods ending August 31, 1997
as compared to the same periods in 1996.  Total operating income in this segment
was $1,651,000 and $3,576,000 for the three and six month periods ending August
31, 1997 as compared to $1,284,000 and $2,867,000 in the same periods in 1996.
Hobson Galvanizing contributed $244,000 and $523,000 for the three and six month
periods ending August 31, 1997.  The Oil Field Products Segment showed an
operating income of $204,000 and $342,000 for the three and six month periods
ending August 31, 1997 versus an operating loss for the same periods in 1996.

 General corporate expenses (selling, G & A expense, and other [income] expense)
for the three and six month periods ending August 31, 1997, as compared to 1996,
were relatively flat.

 Interest expense was lower for the three and six month periods ending August
31, 1997, as compared to 1996, due to a reduction in outstanding debt and lower
interest rates.

                        LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
                        -------------------------------

 Net cash provided by operations for the six month period ending August 31, 1997
was $1,244,000 compared to $2,908,000 during the same period in 1996.  Accounts
Receivable increased for the period ending August 31, 1997 by $1,297,000,
primarily due to the acquisition of Hobson Galvanizing on March 10, 1997.
Inventories increased for the period ending August 31, 1997 by $2,696,000, due
to an increase in the price of zinc used in the Company's Galvanizing Segment
and as a result of the build up of tubular products for the Company's Oil Field
Products Segment.

 Aztec acquired on March 10, 1997, the operating assets of Hobson Galvanizing,
Inc., for $3.9 million.  The purchase was funded from cash reserves of the
Company.  Other significant uses of cash included the  repayment of bank debt
and capital expenditures.

 The Company has a credit facility in place that is made up of a three year $10
million revolving line of credit and a six year $10 million term note.  The
Company's current availability under the revolving line of credit is
approximately $10 million.  Management believes that the credit facility,
current assets and cash generated from operations will be sufficient to
accommodate the Company's current operations, internal growth, and possible
future acquisitions.
