             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 November 30, 1997, and the
      results of its operations and cash flows for the nine-month periods ended
      November 30, 1997 and November 30, 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 non compete agreement.

      Effective December 8, 1997, the Company purchased certain assets of
      International Galvanizers, Inc. for approximately $1.65 million which
      included a $50,000 payment to the seller pursuant to a non compete
      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 27% and 30% for the three month and nine month
periods ending November 30, 1997 as compared to the same periods in 1996.  Net
sales in the Electrical Products Segment were up $1,012,000 or 13% for the three
month period ending November 30, 1997, and $4,535,000 or 20% for the nine month
period ending November 30, 1997, as compared to the same periods in 1996.
Backlog continues to improve in the Electrical Segment at $12,207,000 compared
to $9,178,000 in the prior year.   Net sales in the Galvanizing Segment were up
$1,454,000 or 25% for the three month period ending November 30, 1997, and
$4,495,000 or 25% for the nine month period ending November 30, 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 42,981,000 and
136,353,000 for the three and nine month periods ending November 30, 1997
compared to 42,099,000 and 124,808,000 during the same periods in 1996.  Hobson
Galvanizing contributed $1,274,000 and $4,246,000 in sales for the three and
nine month periods ending November 30, 1997 and produced 7,147,000 and
24,236,000 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 $.1367 in 1996.  Net sales in
the Oil Field Products Segment were up 170% and 180% for the three and nine
month periods ending November 30, 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
nine month periods ending November 30, 1997, as compared to the same periods in
1996, were up 16% and 24% respectively.  Gross operating income in the
Electrical Products Segment was up .2% and 24% for the three and nine month
periods ending November 30, 1997, as compared to the same periods in 1996 .  The
Calvert Company operated at a 3.9% operating margin versus a 7.4% operating
margin in the same quarter in 1996.  The Galvanizing Segment's operating  income
was up 10% and 20% for  the three and nine month periods ending November 30,
1997 as compared to the same periods in 1996.  Total operating income in this
segment was $1,595,000 and $5,171,000 for the three and nine month periods
ending November 30, 1997 as compared to $1,444,000 and $4,310,000 in the same
periods in 1996.   Hobson Galvanizing contributed $186,000 and $710,000 for the
three and nine month periods ending November 30, 1997.  The Oil Field Products
Segment showed an operating income of $133,000 and $475,000 for the three and
nine month periods ending November 30, 1997 versus operating losses for the same
periods in 1996.

General corporate expenses (selling, G & A expense, and other [income] expense)
for the three and nine month periods ending November 30, 1997, as compared to
1996, were up due to higher accruals for employee benefits and profit sharing
expense.

Interest expense was lower for the three and nine month periods ending November
30, 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 nine month period ending November 30,
1997 was $1,022,000 compared to $5,939,000 during the same period in 1996.
Accounts Receivable increased for the period ending November 30, 1997 by
$1,830,000, primarily due to the acquisition of Hobson Galvanizing on March 10,
1997.  Inventories increased for the period ending November 30, 1997 by
$5,286,000, 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.  Aztec acquired on December 8, 1997, the operating assets of
International Galvanizers, Inc. for $1.65 million.  The purchase was funded from
the Company's revolving line of credit.  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 $8 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.
