2.   Presentation of Interim Information:

     The amounts included in this report are unaudited; however, in the opinion
     of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of results
     for the stated periods have been included.  These adjustments are of a
     normal recurring nature.  Certain information and footnote disclosures
     normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with
     generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.
     It is suggested that these condensed  consolidated financial statements be
     read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto
     included in the Company's Annual Form 10-K under the Securities Exchange
     Act of 1934 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The

4.   Commitments:

     During the quarter ended June 30, 1998 the Company purchased construction
     vehicles and equipment under capital leases expiring in the year 2003.  The
     assets and liabilities under capital leases are recorded at the lower of
     the present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the
     assets.  The assets are depreciated over their related lease terms.

     Minimum future lease payments under the above mentioned capital leases as
     of June 30, 1998 for each of the next five years and in aggregate are:

5.   New Accounting Standard:

     In April 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
     issued Statement of Position 98-5 ("SOP 98-5") "Reporting on the Costs of
     Start-Up Activities."  SOP 98-5 requires that costs of start-up activities
     should be expensed as incurred.  SOP 98-5 is effective for years beginning
     after December 15, 1998 and earlier application is permitted and
     encouraged.  The Company does not expect adoption of SOP 98-5 to have a
     material effect, if any, on its financial position or results of
     operations.

6.   Discontinued Operations:

     In June 1998, the Company initiated a plan to dispose of Prestressed
     Products Incorporated.  Accordingly, the Company has reclassified the
     operations of Prestressed Products Incorporated as discontinued operations
     in the accompanying statements of operations.  The Company recorded an
     estimated loss of $1,950,000 (net of income tax benefit of $1,300,000),
     related to the disposal of assets for Prestressed Products Incorporated,
     which included a provision of $1,350,000 for estimated operating losses
     during the phase-out period.

ITEM 2.        MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                      CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL
     The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain
significant factors affecting the Company's financial position and operating
results during the periods included in the accompanying condensed consolidated
financial statements.

     Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters set
forth in this report are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
"safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties
that may cause actual results to differ materially. The Company disclaims any
intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements.

     During June 1998, the Company initiated a plan to dispose of Prestressed
Products Incorporated.  The Company accrued a $1,950,000 charge (net of income
tax benefit of $1,300,000) relating to the estimated disposal cost of  the
Prestressed Products business, which is expected to be completed during the
first quarter of 1999.

     In April 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
issued Statement of Position 98-5 ("SOP 98-5") "Reporting on the Costs of Start-
Up Activities."  SOP 98-5 requires that costs of start-up activities should be
expense as incurred.  SOP 98-5 is effective for years beginning after December
15, 1998 and earlier application is permitted and encouraged.  The Company does
not expect adoption of SOP 98-5 to have a material effect, if any, on its
financial position or results of operations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
     The following table sets forth, for the six months and the three months
ended June, 1998 and 1997, certain items derived from the Company's Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Operations expressed as a percentage of revenue.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997

     Revenue and Backlog.  Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 1998
("interim 1998") was $84.1 million compared to $60.7 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1997 ("interim 1997").  The increase in revenue was the result of
an increase in contract revenue of $19.6 million and a $3.8 million increase in
revenue  generated from construction materials production and manufacturing sold
to non-affiliates.  Backlog increased 23% to approximately $210 million  at June
30, 1998, from approximately $171 million at June 30, 1997.  Revenue is impacted
in any one period by the backlog at the beginning of the period.

     Gross Profit.  As a percentage of revenue, consolidated gross profit margin
decreased from 5.5% for interim 1997 to 5.3% for interim 1998.  The decrease in
MVC's  gross profit margin was the result of (i) cost overruns on certain
projects  (ii) subcontractor difficulties and (iii) costs related to plan or
specification errors.  Gross profit margins are affected by a variety of factors
including construction delays and difficulties due to weather conditions,
availability of materials, the timing of work performed by other subcontractors
and the physical and geological condition of the construction site.

     General and Administrative.  General and administrative expenses increased
from $2,203,786 for interim 1997 to $2,920,476 for interim 1998.  The increase
results, in part, from costs associated with expansion in the white paving
market, amounting to approximately $208,000, $400,000 in corporate labor,
$76,000 in legal cost and approximately $23,000 in costs related to the
administration of the Company's employee benefit plans.

     Interest Income and Expense.  Interest income for interim 1998 increased to
$385,949 from $257,560 for interim 1997 due to an increase in cash reserves
resulting primarily from billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on
uncompleted contracts. Interest expense decreased for interim 1998 to $245,113
from $301,014 for interim 1997 due to a  $1,500,000 reduction in related party
debt.

     Net Income from Continuing Operations After Income Taxes.  Net income from
continuing operations after income taxes was $1,021,096 for interim 1998 as
compared to $654,958 for interim 1997.  The increase resulted from higher
revenues offset by increased general and administrative expenses and decreased
gross profit margins, as well as higher interest income and lower interest
expense.

     Discontinued Operations. In June 1998, the Company decided to dispose of
its wholly-owned subsidiary, Prestressed Products Incorporated. Accordingly, the
Company has reclassified the operations of Prestressed Products Incorporated as
discontinued operations in the accompanying financial statements. In June 1998,
the Company accrued a $1,950,000 charge (net of income tax benefit of
$1,300,000), related to the disposal of assets for the Prestressed Products
business, which included a provision of $1,350,000 for estimated operating
losses during the phase-out period. The disposal of the Prestressed Products
business is expected to be completed during the first quarter 1999.
 
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997

     Revenue and Backlog.  Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 1998
("interim 1998") was $46.2 million compared to $32.4 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1997 ("interim 1997").  The increase in revenue was the
result of a $13.1 million increase in contract revenue and a $.7 million
increase in revenue generated from construction materials production and
manufacturing sold to non-affiliates.  Backlog increased 23% to approximately
$210 million at June 30, 1998 from approximately $171 million at June 30, 1997.
Revenue is impacted in any one period by the backlog at the beginning of the
period.

     Gross Profit.  As a percentage of revenue, consolidated gross profit margin
decreased from 5.9% for interim 1997 to 4.5% for interim 1998.  The decrease in
MVC's  gross profit margin was the result of (i) cost overruns on certain
projects (ii) subcontractor difficulties and (iii) costs related to plan or
specification errors.  Gross profit margins are affected by a variety of factors
including construction delays and difficulties due to weather conditions,
availability of materials, the timing of work performed by other subcontractors
and the physical and geological condition of the construction site.

<PAGE>
 
     General and Administrative.  General and administrative expenses increased
from $1,099,127 for interim 1997 to $1,371,128 for interim 1998.  The increase
results, in part, from costs associated with expansion in the white paving
market, amounting to $98,000, $73,000 in corporate labor, $48,000 in legal costs
and a variety of costs including costs in excess of $26,000 related to the
Company's safety plan.

     Interest Income and Expense.  Interest income for interim 1998 increased to
$268,967 from $88,122 for interim 1997 due to an increase in cash reserves
resulting primarily from billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on
uncompleted contracts.  Interest expense decreased for interim 1998 to $103,629
from $148,822 for interim 1997 due to a $1,500,000 reduction in related party
debt.

     Net Income from Continuing Operations After Income Taxes.  Net income after
income taxes was $535,942 for interim 1998 as compared to $455,592 for interim
1997. The increase resulted from higher revenues offset by increased general and
administrative expenses and decreased gross profit margins, as well as higher
interest income and lower interest expense.

     Discontinued Operations. In June 1998, the Company decided to dispose of
its wholly-owned subsidiary, Prestressed Products Incorporated. Accordingly, the
Company has reclassified the operations of Prestressed Products Incorporated as
discontinued operations in the accompanying financial statements. In June 1998,
the Company accrued a $1,950,000 charge (net of income tax benefit of
$1,300,000), related to the disposal of assets for the Prestressed Products
business, which included a provision of $1,350,000 for estimated operating
losses during the phase-out period. The disposal of the Prestressed Products
business is expected to be completed during the first quarter 1999.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The  Company's primary need for capital has been to finance expansion and
capital expenditures.   Historically, the Company's primary source of cash has
been from operations. Revenue growth has required additional capital to finance
expanded receivables, retentions and capital expenditures and address
fluctuations in the work-in-process billing cycle.

     The following table sets forth for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and
1997, certain items from the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Cash Flows (Used in) Financing Activities       (1,280,528)     (316,700)
</TABLE>

     Although the Company may experience increased profitability as operations
increase, cash may be reduced to finance receivables and for customer cash
retention required under contracts subject to completion.  Management
continually monitors the Company's cash requirements to maintain adequate cash
reserves, and the Company believes that its cash balances were and, together
with the operating lines of credit described below, are sufficient.

     Cash provided by operating activities during interim 1998 amounted to
$8,469,624, primarily the result of an increase in net billings in excess of
costs of $8,546,000, an increase in net liabilities and reserves of discontinued
operations of $2,585,000, an increase in interest payable of $161,000,
depreciation and amortization of $873,000 offset, in part, by an increase in
accounts receivable of $717,000, a decrease in accounts payable and accrued
liabilities of $1,003,000, an increase in prepaid expenses of $314,000, an
increase in income tax receivable of $64,000 and a net loss of $1,564,000.

     Cash provided by operating activities during interim 1997 amounted to
$2,063,112, primarily the result of net income of $492,000, net billings in
excess of costs of $2,294,000, an increase in net liabilities and reserves of
discontinued operations of $163,000, a decrease in accounts receivable of
$4,234,000, a decrease in income tax 

                                      13
<PAGE>
 
receivable of $328,000 and depreciation and amortization of $560,000 offset, in
part, by a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $5,926,000.

     Cash used in investing activities during interim 1998 included the purchase
of property and equipment of $1,066,000, an increase in restricted cash of
$605,000 and an increase in investment in and advances to a related entity of
$1,558,000, offset by the collection of a related party note receivable of
$258,000 and $103,000 proceeds from the sale of property and equipment.

     Cash used in investing activities during interim 1997 included the purchase
of property and equipment of $2,270,000 and an increase in investment in and
advances to a related entity of $748,000, offset by a decrease in restricted
cash of $404,000 and $87,000 in proceeds from the sale of property and
equipment.

     Cash used in financing activities during interim 1998 included the
repayment of notes payable and capital lease obligations in the amount of
$781,000 and the repayment of a related party note payable of $500,000.  Cash
used during interim 1997 included the repayment of notes payable and capital
lease obligations in the amount of $317,000.

     The Company currently has available from a commercial bank a $2,000,000
operating line of credit at an interest rate of the commercial bank's prime plus
 .50%, and a $2,000,000 operating line of credit at an interest rate of the
commercial bank's prime plus .25% ("lines of credit").  At June 30, 1998,
nothing had been drawn on either of the lines of credit.  Under the lines of
credit, the Company is required to maintain certain levels of working capital,
to promptly pay all of its obligations and is precluded from conveying, selling
or leasing all or substantially all of its assets. At June 30, 1998, the Company
was in full compliance with all such covenants and there are no material
covenants or restriction in the lines of credit which the Company believes would
impair its operations.  The lines of credit expire September 15, 1998.

     The Company is currently leasing approximately 40 ready-mix trucks with
estimated annual lease payments of $800,000.  The Company anticipates that a
substantial portion of the costs associated with a planned second ready mix
plant and related equipment will be financed through bank financing and
operating leases.

     Management believes that the Company's cash reserves, together with its
lines of credit and its capacity to enter into other financing arrangements are
sufficient to fund its cash requirements for the next 12 months and that the
