Discontinued Operations: In June 1998, the Company adopted a formal plan ( the "plan") to discontinue the operations of Prestressed Products Incorporated ("PPI"). The plan included the completion of approximately $2.8 million of uncompleted contracts and the disposition of approximately $1.2 million of equipment. Accordingly, the Company has reclassified the operations of PPI as discontinued operations in the accompanying statements of operations. In June 1998, 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 PPI, which included a provision of $1,350,000 for estimated operating losses during the phase-out period. During the three months ended March 31, 1999, $179,375 of the expected losses were incurred (net of income tax benefit of $119,583). The revenue of PPI for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1999 were $1,653,318 and $65,140. These amounts are not included in revenue in the accompanying statements of operations. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998, reflect the net liabilities and the estimated loss as a single amount as follows: March 31, December 31, 1999 1998 ------------------- ----------------- Current assets .............................................. $ 1,229,879 1,204,192 Non-current assets .......................................... 416,831 481,331 Liabilities .................................................

Lewis Survivors Trust and the Richard C. Lewis Marital Trust, each of which was created pursuant to the Richard C. Lewis Family Revocable Trust I. During January 1999, the Company made interest payments totaling $27,397, related to the $10 million promissory note (original 1994 promissory note balance), to the Kim A.

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. Results of Operations The following table sets forth, for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, certain items derived from the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations expressed as a percentage of revenue. Three months ended March 31, ------------------------------------- 1999 1998 ------------------ ----------------- Revenue ....................................................... 100.0% 100.0% Gross profit .................................................. 4.7 6.2 General and administrative expenses............................ 3.4 4.1 Interest income ............................................... .2 .3 Interest expense .............................................. .1 .4 Other income .................................................. .1 .1 Income from continuing operations before income taxes ......... 1.5 2.1 Income taxes .................................................. .6 .8 Net income from continuing operations ......................... .9 1.3 Discontinued operations: Loss from operations of Prestressed Products subsidiary ....... - .6 Net income .................................................... .9 .7 Three Months Ended March 31, 1999 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1998 Revenue and Backlog. Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1999 ("interim 1999") was $58.3 million compared to $37.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 ("interim 1998"). The increase in revenue was the result of a $19.6 million increase in contract revenue and a $.8 million increase in revenue generated from construction materials production and manufacturing sold to non-affiliates. Backlog decreased 22% to approximately $172 million at March 31, 1999 from approximately $221 million at March 31, 1998. Revenue may be 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 6.2% for interim 1998 to 4.7% for interim 1999. The decrease in MVC's gross profit margin was the result of (i) cost overruns on certain projects (ii) weather and execution difficulties related to a bridge substructure and (iii) increased profit recognition related to several projects nearing completion at March 31, 1998. 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. 9 General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses, which decreased 17% as a percent of revenue, increased to $1,955,569 for interim 1999 from $1,549,348 for interim 1998. The increase resulted, in part, from costs related to various employee incentive plans amounting to $270,000, $26,000 in costs related to the Company's safety plan, $35,000 in costs related to the education and training of corporate and area personnel and a variety of other costs related to the administration of the corporate and area offices. Interest Income and Expense. Interest income for interim 1999 increased to $138,746 from $116,982 in interim 1998 due to an increase in average cash reserves resulting primarily from billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted projects. Interest expense decreased in interim 1999 to $52,359 from $141,484, due primarily to a $1,500,000 reduction in related party debt during 1998 and a $1,000,000 reduction at the beginning of interim 1999. Net Income from Continuing Operations After Income Taxes. Net income from continuing operations after income taxes was $551,812 in interim 1999 as compared to $485,154 for interim 1998. The increase resulted from higher revenues along with higher interest income and lower interest expense, offset, in part, by increased general and administrative expenses and decreased gross profit margins. Discontinued Operations. In June 1998, due to continuing operating losses, 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. During the three months ended March 31, 1999, $179,375 of the expected losses were incurred (net of income tax benefit of $119,583). The cessation of the Prestressed Products business is expected to be completed during the second quarter 1999. Net income. Net income, after discontinued operations, for interim 1999 was $551,812 as compared to $264,810 for interim 1998. 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 to address fluctuations in the work-in-process billing cycle. The following table sets forth for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, certain items from the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Three months ended March 31, ------------------------------------ 1999 1998 ------------------ ---------------- Cash Flows Provided by (Used in) Operating Activities . $ (5,723,611) $ 229,499 Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities ............... (1,005,661) (275,801) Cash Flows Used in Financing Activities ............... (1,520,807) (411,943) 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 used in operating activities during interim 1999 amounted to $5.7 million, primarily the result of an increase in accounts receivable of $10.1 million, an increase in prepaid expenses and other of $.3 million and a decrease in accrued liabilities of $.8 million, offset, in part, by net income of $.6 million, depreciation and amortization of $.5 10 million, an increase in accounts payable of $3.0 million, an increase in net billings in excess of costs of $1.2 million and a $.2 million decrease in income tax receivable. Cash provided by operating activities during interim 1998 amounted to $.2 million, primarily the result of a net income of $.3 million, an increase in accounts payable of $1.9 million, depreciation and amortization of $.4 million, an increase in net billings in excess of costs of $1.0 million, offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $2.7 million, an increase in prepaid expenses and other of $.3 million and a decrease in accrued liabilities of $.4 million. Cash used in investing activities during interim 1999 amounted to $1.0 million related primarily to the purchase of property and equipment of $.6 million, an increase in restricted cash of $.4 million and the purchase of treasury stock held for funding employer retirement plan contributions of $.4 million, offset by a decrease in net assets of discontinued operations of $.3 million and proceeds from the sale of property and equipment in the amount of $.1 million. Cash used in investing activities during interim 1998 amounted to $.3 million related primarily to the increase in restricted cash of $.2 million and the purchase of property and equipment of $.6 million, offset by the decrease in related party note receivable of $.3 million and a decrease in net assets of discontinued operations of $.2 million. The aforementioned note receivable- related party was due from Paul R. Lewis, an officer and director of the Company. Cash used in financing activities during interim 1999 amounted to $1.5 million including $1.0 million repayment of a loan from a related party and repayments of notes payable and capital lease obligations in the amount of $.5 million. The aforementioned note payable-related party was due to a principal shareholder of the Company, the Richard C. Lewis Family Revocable Trust I. Cash used in financing activities during interim 1998 amounted to $.4 related to repayment of notes payable and capital lease obligations. 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 March 31, 1999, and as of the filing date of this report, 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 its obligations and is precluded from conveying, selling or leasing all or substantially all of its assets. At March 31, 1999, the Company was in compliance with all such covenants and there are no material covenants or restrictions in the lines of credit which the Company believes would impair its operations. The lines of credit expire September 15, 1999. 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. In addition, the Company is currently leasing approximately 40 ready-mix trucks with estimated annual lease payments of $800,000. 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 Company's working capital will be adequate to fund its short term and long term requirements. Year 2000 The Company has completed a comprehensive assessment of the internal information systems and applications that will be impacted by the year 2000. The Company expects to make the necessary revisions or upgrades to its systems to render it year 2000 compliant. The Company's accounting software currently utilizes a four digit year field. Attention is also being focused on compliance efforts of key suppliers and customers. The Company has received assurances from certain customers and vendors related to their state of readiness; however, the Company could potentially experience disruptions to some aspects of its various activities and operations as a result of non-compliant systems utilized by the Company or unrelated third parties. Contingency plans are therefore under development to mitigate the extent of any such potential disruption to business operations. Based on preliminary information, the costs 11 to the Company of addressing potential year 2000 issues are not expected to have a material adverse impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations or financial position. There can be no assurance that the efforts or the contingency plans related to the Company's systems, or those of the other entities relied upon, will be successful or that any failure to convert, upgrade or appropriately plan for contingencies would not have a material adverse effect on the Company.
