ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
GENERAL - The following discussion regarding the Company and its
business and operations contains "forward-looking statements" within
the meaning of Private Securities Litigation Reform Act 1995. Such
statements consist of any statement other than a recitation of
historical fact and can be identified by the use of forward-looking
terminology such as "may", "expect", "anticipate", "estimate" or
"continue" or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or
comparable terminology.
The reader is cautioned that all forward-looking statements are
necessarily speculative and there are certain risks and uncertainties
that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from
those referred to in such forward looking statements.
The Company does not have a policy of updating or revising
forward-looking statements and thus it should not be assumed that
silence by management of the Company over time means that actual events
are bearing out as estimated in such forward looking statements.
OVERVIEW - During the first quarter of 1998, Management's efforts were
mainly focused on the acquisition and reorganization of small to medium
size companies that would provide the Company with a more stable cash
flow and would constitute a solid investment. Management believes that
these investments will be profitable and will generate cash flow in
future years, (e.g., vineyard and wine processing installation). In
addition, these acquisitions will provide the Company with highly
qualified employees and assets that would bring new ideas and state of
the art technology.
The first quarter in 1998 has been affected by two setbacks that had a
negative effect on the results expected by management for 1998.
The first was the inability of its American subsidiary, Andean
Engineering & Finance Corporation ("AEFC") to produce any revenues or
profit from inception, mainly due to the dedication of its executives
to long-term matters; a majority of those efforts were successfully
dedicated to the reorganization of Construcciones Electromecanicas
Consonni, S.A., ("Consonni"). The second setback was the effect of the
Asiatic Crisis on the investment activity during the last quarter of
1997 and first quarter of 1998. Most of the projects being handled by
the Company as well as some new contracts anticipated to be executed
during the first quarter of 1998, were postponed until the second
quarter and/or third quarter of 1998. The impact of these two problems
is clearly a factor when analyzing the results of the year.
Management is taking corrective measures to mitigate or eliminate these
problems for the remainder of 1998. Notwithstanding, management
believes that increased expenses were necessary to develop the Company
and prepare it for its new phase of activities.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
(CONTINUED)
The Company believes that the market has already absorbed the effects
of the Asiatic Crisis during this period and the delayed activities
will come to fruition in the second and third quarters of 1998.
Moreover, the activities of INGESIS, NYSA, the two wine related
companies, and Consonni should have a positive effect on total revenues
and net income, as well as the stability of the Company. In general,
management anticipates a solid recovery starting the second quarter of
1998.
PLAN OF OPERATIONS - The Company will increase its efforts in the Core
Business area, using its facilities in Spain and by acting as a
consultant to various manufacturers who are bidding projects in Peru,
Argentine and Brazil, where the Chilean utilities have made significant
investments. The Company will also consolidate its investments and
effectively increase the production of the newly acquired subsidiaries,
improving the quality of its services to customers, its coverage of new
markets and its internal administration. Management will seek approval
of the shareholders to increase its participation in Consonni and ECESA
of Spain up to 77%.
Management plans to dedicate more time to its Core Business and have
acquired experts to develop new businesses. Mr. Errazuriz, CEO and
Chairman, effective May 15, 1998, resigned to dedicate all of his time
to the development of new ideas, sales and promotion in the Core
Business area. He will remain as Chairman of the Board. Mr. De La
Barra, who joined the Company in September 1997 from the Inter-American
Development Bank, has been appointed to the position of President and
CEO.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - March 31, 1998 compared to March 31, 1997.
Gross revenues decreased from $909,261 in 1997 to $386,460 in 1998, a
decrease of 57%. This decrease is due to the Asiatic Crisis previously
mentioned that has delayed most projects being handled by the Company
as well as postponement of new contract negotiations. Management
expects to increase its gross revenues in the second and third quarters
of 1998 with the completion of the contracts delayed in the first
quarter.
Cost of operations increased from $221,248 at March 31, 1997 to
$240,340 at March 31, 1998 or 9% due to the diversification of the
Company's operations in new markets and thus as a result, additional
personnel have been hired to meet these needs.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
(CONTINUED)
Selling and administrative expenses increased from $232,440 at March
31, 1997 to $367,868 at March 31, 1998 an increase of $135,428 or 58%
which is reflective of the above mentioned increase in personnel and
management's continued effort to increase the Company's Core business.
Management anticipates some of these investments to have profitability
at the end of 1998.
Gross profits decreased from $688,013 at March 31, 1997 to $146,120 at
March 31, 1998, a decrease of $541,893 or 79%. This is primarily due to
net income decreased from $433,700 at March 31, 1997 to $68,032 at
March 31, 1998, a decrease of $365,668 or 84%. This is due to the
aforementioned.
Income taxes have decreased from $50,254 to $20,173 or $30,081.
Although income before income taxes decreased significantly, the
Company must pay income taxes in Chile that are not offset with U.S.
affiliates for consolidated financial statement purposes.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - During the period ended in March 31,
1998, as compared to December 31, 1997, there were significant changes
in the liquidity, type of assets and structure of debt.
Other assets have increased from $5,437,585 for the period ended on
December 31, 1997 to $5,737,790 for the period ended March 31, 1998.
This increase corresponds to investments in new business opportunities
described above.
Current liabilities decreased from $1,844,578 as of December 31, 1997
to $1,067,021 as of March 31, 1998, due to the payments of payables
during the first quarter of 1998.
Long-term liabilities of $195,574 as or March 31, 1998, is down from
$206,071 as of December 31, 1997 due to payments made on liabilities in
the first quarter of 1998.
