NOTE B Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements included herein
have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the interim period
reporting requirements of Form 10-Q. Consequently, certain information and note
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.
Readers of this report should refer to the consolidated financial statements and
the notes thereto included in the Company's latest Annual Report on Form 10-K
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of a normal
recurring nature) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the
Company and the results of its operations. The results of operations for the
three and nine month periods ended September 30, 19961997 are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 1996.
A description of the Company's significant accounting policies is included in
its December 31, 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on March 13, 1996. The accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited
consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10-K.
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year financial statements to
conform to current year presentation.1997.
NOTE C Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share and Common Equivalent Share
Net income (loss) per common share and common equivalent share for the three and nine
month periods ended September 30, 19961997 and 19951996 have been calculated based on
the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and common
stock equivalents relating to warrants and stock options outstanding when the
effect of such common stock equivalents are dilutive.
NOTE D Net Assets Held For Sale
In May 1996, the Company completed the saleWeighted average number of
substantially all of the assets
of its subsidiary Jamaica Water Supply Company ("JWS") to The City of New York
and the Water Authority of Western Nassau County for an aggregate purchase price
of approximately $179.0 million, subject to post-closing adjustments;
approximately $1.2 million of this purchase price is being held in escrow
pending determination of post-closing adjustments. In May 1996, the Company also
completed the sale of the stock of its other water supply subsidiary Sea Cliff
Water Company ("Sea Cliff") to a subsidiary of Aquarion Company for
approximately $2.6 million, subject to post-closing adjustments; approximately
$0.5 million of this purchase price is being held in escrow for a period of
approximately one year pending determination of post-closing adjustments and as
collateral security for certain indemnification obligations. JWS and Sea Cliff
are referred to herein collectively as the "Water Companies". Approximately 96%
of the Common Stock of JWS is owned by the Company.
The sales proceeds from the sale of JWS' assets have been and will be applied to
pay JWS liabilities and preferred stock obligations and to satisfy minority
stock interests in JWS and as a reserve for litigation involving Warrants of
Participation issued by the Company's predecessor (see Note H). Of the balance,
$15.0 million was used to repay a portion of indebtedness under the Company's
then outstanding MES Credit Agreement referred to below and approximately $66.5
million was used to redeem in full its Series A Notes. The remainder was and
will be used to redeem notes issued by the Company's subsidiary SellCo
Corporation ("SellCo"). (See Note F for additional discussion of the use of
proceeds from the sale of JWS' assets and the stock of Sea Cliff).
The operating results of net assets held for sale have been excluded from the
condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine month periods
ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 since the operation of these businesses will
primarily only accrue to the benefit of the holders of notes issued by SellCo.

Specialty Contracting Inc. ("Dyn") entered into a credit agreement with Harris
Trust and Savings Bank ("Harris") providing the Company with up to a $100.0
million revolving credit facility (the "New Credit Facility") for a three year

Loans bear interest at a variable rate representing Harris' prime rate (8.25% at
September 30, 1996) plus 1.0% - 2.0% based on certain financial covenants, as
defined. The interest rate on the Revolving Loans was 9.25% at September 30,

other things, substantially all of the assets of the Company, MES and the U.S.
MES Subsidiaries, including the proceeds of the sale of all of the assets of the
Company, MES and the U.S. MES Subsidiaries and the proceeds of the sale of stock
or assets of the Water Companies to the extent of the first $15.0 million of
such proceeds, subject to the right to such proceeds of the Lenders under the
Dyn Credit Agreement referred to below. The MES Loans bore interest on the
principal amount thereof at the rate of 15.0% per annum. Borrowings under the
MES Credit Agreement ($25.0 million at December 31, 1995) are classified as
current liabilities under the caption "Borrowings under working capital credit
lines" in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Borrowings outstanding under the MES Credit Agreement and Dyn Credit Agreement
(hereafter defined) were repaid, in part, on June 12, 1996 from proceeds
received by the Company from the sale of the Water Companies9,468,083, respectively (see Note D) and
the balance was repaid on June 20, 1996 from borrowings under the New Credit
Facility at which time the credit agreements were terminated.

Companies to the extent of the first $15.0 million of such proceeds, subject to
the right to such proceeds of the Lenders under the MES Credit Agreement. The

million additional principal amount of Series A Notes for issuance upon
resolution of disputed and unliquidated pre-petition general unsecured claims
pursuant to the Company's Plan of Reorganization adopted in connection with its
Chapter 11 proceeding. Approximately $4.7 million of the issued Series A Notes

NOTE HF Legal Proceedings
The Dynalectric Company ("Dynalectric"), a subsidiary of the Company, is a
defendant in an action entitled Computran v. Dynalectric, et. al., pending in
Superior Court of New Jersey, Bergen County, arising out of its participation in
a joint venture. In the action, which was instituted in 1988, the plaintiff,
Computran, a participant in and a subcontractor to the joint venture, alleges
that Dynalectric wrongfully terminated it from the subcontract, fraudulently
diverted funds due it, misappropriated its trade secrets and proprietary
information, fraudulently induced it to enter into the joint venture and
conspired with other defendants to commit certain acts in violation of the New
Jersey Racketeering Influence and Corrupt Organization Act. Dynalectric believes
that Computran's claims are without merit and intends to defend this matter
vigorously. Dynalectric has filed counterclaims against Computran. Discovery is
ongoing;ongoing and no trial date is scheduled.
On September 26, 1994 certain holders of Warrants of Participation ("Warrants")
that were issued pursuant to a Warrant Agreement dated June 15, 1969 by the
Company's predecessor, Jamaica Water and Utilities, Inc. ("JWU"), commenced a
declaratory judgment action against a subsidiary of the Company Jamaica Water
Securities Corp. ("JWSC") by filing a complaint in the Supreme Court of the
State of New York, Westchester County, bearing the caption, Harold F.
Scattergood Jr., et al. v. Jamaica Water Securities Corp. (Index No. 15992/94).
On October 17, 1994, an amended complaint was served adding additional
plaintiffs.
The plaintiffs sought a declaration that JWSC succeeded to the Company's
obligations on the Warrants by reason of its 1977 acquisition of the Company's
96% stock interest in Jamaica Water Supply Company ("JWS"). The plaintiffs also
claimed that certain events constituted a disposition of the assets of JWS which
triggered the Warrants, obligating JWSC to issue shares of its own stock to
plaintiffs. In the alternative, plaintiffs claimed that the December 31, 1994
expiration date of the Warrants should be extended for some indefinite period of
time.
By a Decision and Order, entered on June 22, 1995, the court granted the
Company's motion to dismiss the plaintiffs' action holding that the assets of
JWS had not been "disposed of" under the express terms of the Warrants prior to
their stated expiration on December 31, 1994. The court also held that it lacked
the power to rewrite the "clear and unambiguous provisions" of the Warrant
Agreement to extend the December 31, 1994 deadline. The plaintiffs have appealed
the court's decision and oral arguments on the appeal were heard before the
Appellate Division Third Department of the State of New York on October 3, 1996.
To date, no decision has been rendered by the Appellate Division.scheduled.
In February 1995, as part of an investigation by the New York County District
Attorney's office into the business affairs of Herbert Construction Company
("Herbert"), a general contractor that does business with the Company's
subsidiary, Forest Electric Corporation ("Forest"), a search warrant was
executed at Forest's executive offices. At that time, the Company was informed
that Forest and certain of its officers are targets of the continuing
investigation. Neither the Company nor Forest has been advised of the precise
nature of any suspected violation of law by Forest or its officers. On July 11,
1995, Ted Kohl, a principal of Herbert, and DPL Interiors, Inc., a company
allegedly owned by Mr. Kohl, were indicted by a New York County grand jury for
grand larceny, fraud, repeated failure to file New York City Corporate Tax
Returns and related money laundering charges. Mr. Kohl was also charged with
filing false personal income and earnings tax returns, perjury and offering
false instruments for filing with the New York City School Construction
Authority. In a press release announcing the indictment, the Manhattan District
Attorney said that the investigation disclosed that Mr. Kohl allegedly received
more than $7.0 million in kickbacks from subcontractors through a scheme in
which he allegedly inflated subcontracts on Herbert's construction contracts. At
a July 11, 1995 press conference in July 1995 following the indictment, the District Attorney
announced that the investigation iswas continuing and that he expectsexpected further
indictments in the investigation.
On April 7, 1997 Mr. Kohl pled guilty to one count of money laundering, one
count of offering a false instrument for filing and one count of filing a false
New York State Resident Income Tax Return. DPL Interiors, Inc. also pled guilty
to one count of failing to file New York City General Income Tax Returns. Mr.
Kohl and DPL Interiors, Inc. have not yet been sentenced.
Forest performs electrical contracting services primarily in the New York City
commercial market and is one of the Company's largest subsidiaries.
In addition to the above, the Company is involved in other legal proceedings and
claims asserted by and against the Company, which have arisen in the ordinary
course of business.
The Company believes it has a number of valid defenses to these actions and the
Company intends to vigorously defend or assert these claims and does not believe
that a significant liability will result. However, the Company cannot predict
the outcome thereof or the impact that an adverse result of the matters
discussed above will have upon the Company's financial position or results of
operations.

computing and presenting EPS, is effective for both interim and annual periods
ending after December 15, 1997. The statement does not permit early application
of its insurers to reinsureprovisions. The statement replaces the presentation of primary EPS with a
presentation of basic EPS, as defined. It also requires dual presentation of
basic and diluted EPS on the face of the Statement of Operations for entities

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Revenues for the third quarter of 19961997 were $432.5$522.0 million compared to $403.9$432.5
million in the third quarter of 1995.1996. In the third quarter of 19961997, the Company
generated net income of $3.2 million or $0.32 per share compared to net income
of $1.9 million or $0.19 per share compared to net income
of $0.6 million or $0.06 per share in the third quarter of 1995. The improvement
in net income in the third quarter of 1996 as compared to the same period in the
prior year is primarily due to continued improvements in job performance and a
reduction in the Company's cost of borrowing offset partially by an increase in
selling, general and administrative expenses discussed below.1996.
Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 19961997 were $1,202.9$1,431.4 million
compared to $1,171.5$1,202.9 million in the same period in the prior year. For the nine
months ended September 30, 19961997, the Company generated net income of $4.4
million, or $0.44 per share, inclusive of the $1.0 million extraordinary
after-tax charge discussed hereafter, compared to net income of $7.5 million, or
$0.75 per share, compared to a net loss of $12.1 million or $1.27 per share
for the nine months ended September 30, 1995. The improvement1996. Net income for
the nine month period ended September 30, 1997 includes an after-tax charge of
$1.0 million ($1.7 million pre-tax) associated with the early retirement of
approximately $11.9 million of the Company's Series C Notes which is reflected
in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine
month period ended September 30, 1997 under the caption "Extraordinary Item -
Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt, Net of Income Taxes". Net income for the
nine months ended September 30, 1996 as compared to the same period in the prior year
is due to continued improvements in job performance, a reduction in the cost of
borrowing andreflects a net after taxafter-tax gain of $8.1

Company ("JWS"), offset partially by an increasewhich is reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements
of operations for the nine month period ended September 30, 1996 under the
caption "Other Income, Net". Net income for the first three quarters of 1996

award was subsequently settled for $4.3 million in October 1996.
The Company generated operating income of $6.0$8.6 million for the three months
ended September 30, 19961997 compared to operating income of $5.6$6.0 million in the
same period of the prior year. For the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the
Company had operating income of $18.3 million compared to $10.5 million of
operating income in the same period of the prior year. The $2.6 million
improvement in operating income for the three months ended September 30, 19961997
was principally attributable to continued
improvements in gross profit due to cost control efforts and improved job
performance offset partially by an increase in selling, generaloperating volume and administrative expenses duea reduction
in SG&A as a percentage of revenues as compared to the increased volume of operating activity. For

of favorable closeouts of certain contracts in the first quarter of 1996 discussed below.1996.
The increase in revenues for the third quarterfirst nine months of 19961997 as compared to the
same period in the prior year was primarily attributable to the continued
increase in commercial construction activity in the Western United States. Revenues for the
nine month period ended September 30, 1996 increased slightly compared with the
year earlier periods. While revenues of business units operatingStates, to an
increase in the Western
United States increased due to improved economic conditions, these increases
were substantially offset by decreased revenues in the Northeastern United
States resulting from, among other things, adverse weather conditions in the
first quarter of 1996 and increased competition, and in the MidwesternEastern United States, due principally to reducedthe
previously announced acquisition of the businesses of two mechanical
construction activity compared with 1995companies in late 1996 and the Company's
earlier downsizing of its Midwestern operationsearly 1997, and in the United KingdomCanada due to decreased activitya

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("activity.
SG&A"), excluding general
corporate expenses,&A for the quarters ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 were $39.9 million, or
7.7% of revenues, and 1995 were
$32.0$35.6 million, and $29.5 million, respectively, andor 8.2% of revenues, respectively. SG&A for
the first nine month periods
ended September 30,months of 1997 was $112.8 million, or 7.9% of revenues, compared
to $106.0 million, or 8.8% of revenues, for the first nine months of 1996. SG&A
expenses for the first three quarters of 1996, and 1995exclusive of the adverse
arbitration award discussed above, were $95.2$101.2 million, and $90.6 million,
respectively.or 8.4% of revenues. The
increase in SG&A, for the third quarter of 1996 compared to the
prior year's third quarter was primarily due to the increased volume of
operating activity. The increase in SG&A for the nine months ended September 30,
1996 was primarily attributable to an adverse arbitration award in the first
quarter of 1996 requiring the Company to pay $4.8 million in damages in
connection with a contract dispute involving its subsidiary T.L. Cholette, Inc.
In October 1996, the Company concluded its settlement of the arbitration award
for $4.3 million.
The Company's backlog was $1,082.5 million at September 30, 1996 and $1,060.7
million at December 31, 1995. Between December 31, 1995 and September 30, 1996,
the Company's backlog in the United States increased by $73.9 million, its
backlog in Canada decreased minimally and its backlog in the United Kingdom
decreased by $41.2 million. The increase in the Company's domestic backlog was
primarily attributable to improved economic conditions in the Midwestern and
Western United States. The decline in the United Kingdom backlog is due to the
continued progress on several large projects and the continued weakness in the
United Kingdom commercial construction market.
Net Assets Held For Sale
In May 1996, the Company completed the sale of substantially all of the assets
of JWS to The City of New York and the Water Authority of Western Nassau County
for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $179.0 million, subject to
post-closing adjustments; approximately $1.2 million of this purchase price is
being held in escrow pending determination of the post-closing adjustments. In
May 1996, the Company also completed the sale of all of the stock of Sea Cliff
to a subsidiary of Aquarion Company for approximately $2.6 million, subject to
post-closing adjustments; approximately $0.5 million of this purchase price is
being held in escrow for a period of approximately one year pending
determination of the post-closing adjustments and as collateral security for
certain indemnification obligations.
The sales proceeds from the sale of JWS' assets have been and will be applied
first to pay JWS liabilities and preferred stock obligations and to satisfy
minority stock interests in JWS and as a reserve for litigation involving
Warrants of Participation issued by the Company's predecessor (See Note H). Of
the balance, $15.0 million was used to repay a portion of indebtedness under the
Company's then outstanding working capital line and approximately $66.5 million
was used to redeem in full its Series A Notes. Approximately $2.8 million of the
proceeds from the sale of the stock of Sea Cliff and the sale of assets of JWS,
respectively, have been used to redeem, in part, the notes ("SellCo Notes")
issued by the Company's subsidiary SellCo Corporation ("SellCo"). In addition,
as the liabilities of JWS are finally determined, JWS' various contingent
liabilities are resolved, funds held in escrow under the sales agreements (the
"Sales Agreements") for the sale of the JWS assets and the stock of Sea Cliff
are released and post closing adjustments under the Sales Agreements are agreed
upon, additional amounts of the sales proceeds may become available, from time
to time, for additional redemptions of the SellCo Notes. (See Note F for
additional discussion regarding the proceeds from the sale of JWS' assets.)
The operating results of the remaining net assets held for sale have been
excluded from the condensed consolidated financial statementsabsolute dollars, for the three and nine month periods
ended September 30, 1997 compared to the same periods in the prior year,
exclusive of the adverse arbitration award, is attributable to the increase in
operations.
On June 3, 1997, the Company purchased $1.0 million of Series C Notes and
retired such notes. On June 27, 1997, the Company called for the partial
redemption of approximately $10.9 million principal amount of Series C Notes. In
accordance with the Indenture governing the Series C Notes, the redemption price
of the Notes was 105% of the principal amount redeemed. Accordingly, the Company
recorded an extraordinary loss of approximately $1.0 million related to the
early retirement of debt. The extraordinary loss referred to above consisted
primarily of the write-off of the associated debt discount plus premiums and
costs associated with the retirement, net of income tax benefits of
approximately $0.7 million.
The Company's backlog was $1,067.7 million at September 30, 1997 and $1,043.7

United Kingdom increased by $18.3 million and its backlog in the United States
decreased by $11.7 million. The increase in the Company's Canadian backlog was
primarily only accrueattributable to improved economic conditions in Western Canada. The
increase in the United Kingdom backlog is due to the benefitaward of several large
projects and the holdersexpansion of selected existing projects offset partially by
exchange rate fluctuations. The decline in the SellCo Notes.domestic backlog is due to the
continued progress towards completion of several large projects, primarily in
the Western United States.
Liquidity and Capital Resources

million at December 31, 19951996 to $45.5$44.0 million at September 30, 1996.1997. The
September 30, 19961997 cash balance included approximately $6.2$9.0 million inat foreign
subsidiaries' bank accountssubsidiaries which accounts areis available only to support their respective operations. The
Company generated positive operating cash flow for the nine months ended
September 30, 19961997 due to improvements in working capital improvements
which has beenwere used, primarily to repay borrowings underalong
with a portion of the Company's working
capital credit lines andexisting cash balances, to fund capital
expenditures, resulting in the
consolidated cash balance decrease.
On June 19, 1996 the Companypurchase $1.0 million of Series C Notes and its subsidiary Dyn Specialty Contracting Inc.
("Dyn") entered into a credit agreement with Harris Trust and Savings Bank
("Harris") providing the Company with up to a $100.0redeem approximately

Under this agreement, amounts previously deposited by the Company with one of
the Company's insurers as collateral to fund certain losses under the deductible
portion of the Company's insurance program were returned to the Company and used
to fund the cost of the above agreement and to pay down, in July 1996,
approximately $10.1 million of indebtedness under the New Credit Facility. As of
September 30, 1996, the Company is utilizing a $12.2 million letter of credit
