                                                                   =       =======
</TABLE>


     The Company also leases a yard for storage of material  pursuant to an oral
agreement  with an unrelated  party which requires  monthly  payments of $3,500.
Accordingly,  included in general and  administrative  expenses is rent  expense
which amounted to $70,500 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 and
$211,500  for the nine months  ended  March 31,  1997 and 1996.  As of March 31,
1997, $440,000 of rent remains unpaid and is included in accounts payable.

     b) Seasonality

     The Company operates in an industry which may be seasonal, generally due to
inclement weather occurring during the winter months.  Accordingly,  the Company
may experience a seasonal pattern in its operating results with lower revenue in
the third quarter of each fiscal year. Quarterly results may also be affected by
the  timing  of bid  solicitations  by  governmental  authorities,  the stage of
completion of major projects and revenue recognition policies.

     c) Bonding requirements

     The  Company  is  required  to  provide  bid  and/or  performance  bonds in
connection with  governmental  construction  projects.  To date, the Company has
been able to  sufficiently  obtain  bonding  up to  $10,000,000  per job for its
private projects. The Company is continuously pursuing obtaining bonding for its
governmental  construction projects. In addition, new or proposed legislation in
various jurisdictions may require the posting of substantial additional bonds or
require other financial assurances for particular projects.

     d) Mechanic's lien

     During  December  1996,  the Company filed four separate  mechanic's  liens
aggregating $3,044,491 against two of its customers for non payment. Such amount
is included in the

                                       4

<PAGE>
     contracts and retainage  receivable amount. As of June 30, 1996 the Company
recorded an allowance  against the accounts of these customers of  approximately
$1,000,000.  No additional  allowances  have been recorded as of March 31, 1997.
During,  the three  months  ended  March 31,  1997,  three  actions  seeking  to
foreclose on the mechanics liens previously filed were commenced.



     e) Legal Proceedings

     During January 1997, an action was commenced by the Ohio Bridge Corporation
("Ohio")  against the Company.  Ohio claims that the Company has  infringed  its
trademark  "U.S.  Bridge".  In February 1997, the Company filed an answer to the
complaint. The action is presently in the discovery stage. Ohio seeks injunctive
relief,  profits obtained by the Company as a result of its use of the name, and
compensatory  damages.  The Company's  defense is based upon its belief that the
two  companies do not compete  against each other in the same  industry and that
Ohio does not use the  trademark  in order to sell,  market,  or  advertise  its
products.

NOTE 6 -RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     a) Purchase of material and labor

     For the three  months  ended  March 31,  1997 and 1996,  the  Company  paid

of March  31,  1997 is  $440,000  representing  unpaid  rent to such  affiliated
entity.

Companies. Such advances are non-interest bearing and are due on demand.

     ITEM 2 - Management's  Discussion  And Analysis Of Financial  Condition And
Results Of Operations

     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The Company  recognizes  revenue under the percentage of completion method.
Cost of contract  revenues include all direct material and labor costs and those
indirect costs related to contract  performance.  The asset, costs and estimated
earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted  contracts,  represents  costs and
estimated earnings in excess of amounts billed through March 31, 1997.  Billings
in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted  contracts,  represents
billings  which exceed costs and estimated  earnings on  individual  uncompleted
contracts through March 31, 1997.

     Company Background

     The Company's  operations are substantially  controlled by Mr. Polito since
he owns  approximately  69.5% of the  outstanding  shares of U.S.  Bridge  Corp.
("Bridge")  and may be  considered  the  beneficial  owner of the  shares of the
Company  owned by Bridge.  Mr.  Polito is also a 100%  shareholder  of  R.S.J.J.
Realty Corp. ("RSJJ").  RSJJ leases the administrative offices and storage space
to the  Company  at a cost of  $20,000  per  month  pursuant  to a signed  lease
agreement expiring on March 31, 1998. Lastly, Mr. Polito has ownership interests
in Waldorf Steel Fabricators,  Inc. (which ceased operations on August 1, 1995),
Crown Crane, Inc., Atlas Gem Leasing, Inc., Atlas Gem Erectors Co., Inc. and Gem
Steel Erectors.

     Three  months  ended March 31, 1997 as compared to three months ended March
31, 1996

     Contract  revenues  have  increased by $518,634 or 37% to  $1,915,553  from
$1,396,919  for the three  months  ended March 31, 1997 as compared to the three
months  ended March 31, 1996.  This  material  increase is due to new  contracts
commencing toward the first and second quarter of the Company's fiscal year.

     The  Company's  gross  profits for the three months ended March 31, 1997 is
41% as compared  to the three  months  ended March 31, 1996 which was 33%.  This
increase in gross profit  amounting 8% is primarily due to the Company  revising
its contract cost estimates.

     For the three  months  ended  March 31,  1997 and 1996,  the  Company  paid
$33,500 and $310,767,  respectively to U.S. Bridge of Maryland, Inc. ("US Bridge
MD") for  certain  materials  and labor  necessary  to  perform  steel  erection
services.  US Bridge MD is a wholly owned subsidiary of Bridge.  Amounts payable
related to all of such  transactions  and  included  in accounts  payable  total
$152,571 at March 31, 1997. Such amounts are non-interest  bearing  obligations.
Said vendors are under the common control of the Company's majority stockholder.

     General and administrative  expenses include salaries,  office overhead and
costs   associated   with  estimating  and  bidding   activities.   General  and
administrative  expenses have  decreased  minimally by $25,194 or 4% to $593,958
for the three  months  March 31, 1997 from  $619,152  for the three months ended
March 31, 1996.

7





<PAGE>
     Nine months ended March 31, 1997 as compared to nine months ended March 31,
1996

     Contract  revenues have  increased by $3,821,136 or 99% for the nine months
ended March 31, 1997 to $7,691,412  as compared to the contract  revenue for the
nine months ended March 31, 1996 of $3,870,276. This increase is a direct result
of the  company  obtaining  additional  contracts  during the year.  Towards the
latter part of the year ended June 30, 1996 the Company  obtained new  contracts
and additional  change orders to previous  contracts  amounting to approximately
$22,500,000.

     The Company's gross profits for the nine months ended March 31, 1997 is 32%
as compared to the nine months  ended March 31, 1996 which was 35%. The decrease
in gross profit is due to the Company  revising its contract cost  estimates for
jobs  coming to an end in the current  period,  pursuant  to the  percentage  of
completion method. In addition, the Company did not recognize revenue related to
profit sharing on certain projects during the nine months ended March 31, 1997.

     General and  administrative  expenses  have  decreased  by $63,500 or 4% to
$1,665,197 for the nine months ended March 31, 1997 from $1,728,697 for the nine
months ended March 31, 1996. The total  decrease  amounting to $63,500 is mainly
attributable to decrease in office overhead.

     As  of  March  31,  1997,  the  Company  has  a  backlog  of  approximately
$13,273,000.  Backlog  represents  the amount of revenue the Company  expects to
realized from work to be performed on uncompleted contracts in progress and from
contractual agreements which work has not yet begun.

     Liquidity and Capital Resources

     At March 31, 1997, the Company has working capital of $5,089,553.

     As of March  31,  1997,  the  Company's  accounts  receivable  amounted  to
$7,140,332 of which approximately $886,000 or 12% has been collected through May
7, 1997. During December 1996, the Company filed three separate mechanic's liens
aggregating $3,044,491 against two of its customers for non payment. Such amount
is included in the  contracts and retainage  receivable  amount.  As of June 30,
1996 the Company  recorded an allowance  against the accounts of these customers
of  approximately  $1,000,000.  No additional  allowance has been recorded as of
March 31, 1997.

     Net cash used for  operating  activities  amounted  to $97,083 for the nine
months ended March 31, 1997 as compared to a use of cash of  $1,804,451  for the
nine months ended March 31, 1996.  With  regards to  financing  activities,  the
Company provided $224,963 of cash for the nine months ended March 31, 1997. Such
cash was provided primarily by loans from

8




<PAGE>
     stockholder and other related parties.

     During  September 1994, the Company  entered into an installment  agreement
with the I Internal  Revenue  Service in order to liquidate  delinquent  payroll
taxes of  approximately  $231,535 and remove a tax lien filed by such authority.
The agreement required the Company to pay $25,000 per month until such amount is
fully paid. As per the terms of the agreement,  the Company must also pay timely
all current payroll taxes. As of March 31, 1997 the Company has not made all the
required  $25,000  monthly  payments and has not paid timely all current payroll
taxes. Payroll taxes payable, including accrued penalties and interest, amounted
to $573,633 as of March 31, 1997.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 - Legal Proceedings:

         In January 1997, an action was commenced (by the filing of a complaint)
by The Ohio Bridge  Corporation  ("Ohio") against the Company.  Ohio claims that
the Company has infringed its trademark  "U.S.  Bridge." In February  1997,  the
Company  filed an answer  to the  complaint.  The  Company  continues  to defend
against the action,  which is now in the discovery phase.  Ohio seeks injunctive
relief,  profits obtained by the Company as a result of the use of its name, and
compensatory  damages.  The Company's  defense is based upon its belief that the
two  companies do not compete  against each other in the same  industry and that
Ohio does not use the  trademark  in order to sell,  market,  or  advertise  its
products.

         Three actions  seeking to foreclose on four  mechanics  liens (three of
which were  previously  filed by the  Company,  the fourth of which was filed by
McKay  Enterprises,  Inc.,  a  general  contractor  for whom the  Company  was a
subcontractor)  were commenced by the Company  within the last three months.  On
February 25, 1997, the first such action was commenced in New York State Supreme
Court,  Kings County.  The action names the Company and Metro Steel  Structures,
Ltd.  as  plaintiffs  and  Perini   Corporation,   Metropolitan   Transportation
Authority,  New York City  Transportation  Authority,  and  Fidelity and Deposit
Company of Maryland as defendants.

         The second action was commenced in New York State Supreme Court, Queens
County on February 26, 1997. It names the Company, Metro Steel Structures, Ltd.,
and McKay Enterprises, Inc. as plaintiffs and Perini Corporation,  Department of
Transportation  of the City of New York,  and  Fidelity  and Deposit  Company of
Maryland as defendants.

         The third  action was  commenced  on or about May 13,  1997 in New York
State Supreme Court, Suffolk County and names the Company as plaintiff and Kiska
Construction  Corp.,  the State of New York,  acting  through the New York State
Comptroller,  the New York State  Department  of  Transportation,  and  Seaboard
Surety Company as defendants.

         Counsel retained to handle this matter, Congdon, Flaherty,  O'Callahan,
Reid, Donlon, Travis & Fishlinger, advises that Perini, against whom the Company
filed three liens, has not as yet interposed answers to the aforesaid actions.
