           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
           -----------------------------------------------------------
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                            -------------------------


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         Net sales for the third quarter of 1997 were $567,877, up 17% when
compared to the third quarter of 1996. For the first nine months of 1997 net
sales were $1,604,023 up 35% from the same period in 1996. The 1997 net sales
increase was primarily due to the success of the marketing department in
establishing new distributors for promoting our material to a broader range of
architects and contractors. Additionally, our stone facing, custom fabrications
and other products have become increasingly popular with builders of high-end
residential homes, not only in the Great Lakes region but also in New England
and on the West Coast. Going into the winter months we have purchase orders and
commitments worth more than $850,000, which are expected to be completed by
March, 1998. To handle these orders and additional anticipated work, we are
planning to invest nearly half a million dollars in new equipment during the
fourth quarter. This equipment includes a top-of-the-line, Italian-made, diamond
blade gang saw and an automatic stone lathe for fabricating such products as
columns, balusters and vases.

         The gross profit percentage for the second quarter of 1997 was 40%
compared to 47% for the same period in 1996. The gross profit percentage for the
first nine months of 1997 was 33% compared to 32% for the same period in 1996.
The increased demand for our product has caused our margins to suffer as a
result of high maintenance costs and the need to outsource some work to meet
customer demands. The purchase of the new equipment mentioned above is expected
to bring substantial improvements in operating efficiency and increase plant
capacity.

         Selling and administrative expenses continue to decline as a percentage
of net sales due to nonrecurring legal, accounting and consulting costs in 1996.

         The net income was $31,548 for the third quarter of 1997 and $32,978
for the third quarter of 1996. For the first nine months of 1997 net income was
$21,196 compared to a net loss of $(105,154) for the same period in 1996.

LIQUIDITY AND SOURCES OF CAPITAL

         The Company does not currently have, and is not expected to have within
the next twelve (12) calendar months, any cash flow or liquidity problems. The
Company is not in default with respect to any note, loan, lease or other
indebtedness or financing agreement. The Company is not subject to any
unsatisfied judgments, liens or settlement obligations; however, there are
accrued, unpaid and delinquent property taxes which are being brought current
pursuant to a five-year payment plan with the applicable County.
