Date: June 29, 2001 By: /s/ James R. McCourt --------------------- James R. McCourt 3 PART IV, SECTION (4) STATEMENT The registrant's Net Sales for Fiscal Year 2001 were $61,869,583, a decrease of 32.7% from Fiscal Year 2000 of $91,986,494. Net Loss for Fiscal Year 2001 increased to $(4,244,526) from Fiscal Year 2000 Net Loss of $(535,451). The decreases in net sales were a result from the severe retraction in both the truck trailer market and the aluminum extrusion market. Per the Bureau of Census, overall truck trailer shipments from manufacturers in calendar year 2000 decreased by 20.1% with fourth quarter shipments lower than the prior fourth quarter by 34.1%. Industry analysts expect the market to remain at this low level of production through calendar year 2001. Albex, a subsidiary of the registrant, serves the truck trailer market with aluminum extrusion and, as a result, experienced similar decrease in sales. The net loss increase resulted from the loss gross profit not being generated from the decreased net sales and the registrant's inability to reduce operating cost as fast as volume decreased. In addition the registrant has not complied with certain bank covenants, which has resulted in a request from its lenders that the registrant secure replacement financing. The registrant has not yet been able to secure replacement financing. As a result, the audit report will set forth a going concern qualification.
