                                 March 31, 1997

1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been
prepared in accordance  with the  instruction  to Form 10-Q and therefore do not
include all  information  and  footnotes  necessary for a fair  presentation  of
financial  position,  results of operations,  and cash flows in conformity  with
generally accepted accounting principles.

It should be understood  that the foregoing  interim results are not necessarily
indicative  of the  results  of  operations  for the  full  fiscal  year  ending
September  30, 1997 due in part to  increased  reliance on  estimates at interim
dates.

1997)  decreased  5.1% as  compared  to the second  quarter  of fiscal  1996 and
decreased 1.9% as compared to the previous  quarter.  Operating  revenues (total
revenues  excluding  pass through  costs) for the second  quarter of fiscal 1997
increased  2.2% as compared to the second  quarter of fiscal 1996 and  increased
 .3% as compared to the previous  quarter.  The  increase in  operating  revenues
reflects an increase in the demand for transportation engineering.

Pass through costs,  expressed as a percentage of total  revenues,  decreased to
18.5%  compared  to 24.3% in the second  quarter of fiscal 1996 and 20.3% in the
previous  quarter.  Pass  through  costs  will  vary  depending  on the need for
specialty subconsultants and governmental subcontract requirements.

Costs of services, expressed as a percentage of operating revenues, decreased to
88.6% for the second quarter of fiscal 1997 from 90.0% for the second quarter of
fiscal 1996 and 89.5% for the first quarter of fiscal 1997. The decreases in the
percentage  for both quarters is primarily  due to a decrease in  non-productive
labor and labor related costs.

General and  administrative  expense,  expressed  as a  percentage  of operating
revenue, increased to 7.4% in the second quarter of fiscal 1997 from 6.9% in the
second quarter of fiscal 1996 and the previous  quarter.  The increase is caused
by higher travel and salary related expenses.

Interest, expressed as a percentage of operating revenues, decreased slightly to
2.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 1997 compared to 2.2% in the second quarter
of fiscal 1996 but increased from the 1.8% incurred in the previous quarter. The
increase from the previous quarter was due to a higher average loan balance.

Income tax  expense  for the second  quarter of fiscal 1997 was 52.3% of pre-tax
income  compared to 63.6% of pre-tax  income for the same period last year.  The
decrease is due to lower  non-deductible  expenses as a  percentage  of a higher
second quarter pre-tax income.

Earnings per common share,  calculated using the Treasury Stock Method,  for the
second  quarter  of  fiscal  1997  were  10  cents  based  on  1,902,851  shares
outstanding compared to 4 cents in fiscal 1996 on 1,868,225 shares outstanding.

During the second quarter, certain assets of the International Region were sold.
However,  this had an  immaterial  financial  effect  on the  operations  of the
Company. The Company continues to have an active international  presence through
its subsidiary, STV International.

Financial Condition
Working capital decreased to $8,797,000 from $8,800,000 in the previous quarter.
Capital  resources  available to the Company included an existing line of credit
for working  capital.  The current  limit is a maximum of $16.5 million based on
accounts receivable and  work-in-progress of which approximately $4.6 million is
currently  available.  The Company is in  discussions  with its lender which may
reduce its line of credit.  The  Company  believes  that it and the lender  will
maintain a line of credit  adequate  to meet the  current  and future  financial
needs of the  Company.  The  Company is  planning  to  continue  its  program of
purchasing  computer-assisted  design and  drafting  equipment  as well as a new
project management and accounting system.

The Company's backlog is approximately $115 million.
