Item 1.           Business

General

In the Caribbean, Devcon International Corp. (the "Company") produces and
distributes ready-mix concrete, crushed stone, concrete block, and asphalt and
distributes bagged cement. We also perform site preparation work as a land
development contractor. We have established a significant market share in most
locations where we have facilities.

We are a large  producer  and  distributor  of  ready-mix  concrete  and  quarry
products in these Caribbean islands:

         Puerto Rico                               Commonwealth of Puerto Rico
         St. Thomas                                United States Virgin Islands
         St. Croix                                 United States Virgin Islands
         St. Maarten                               Netherlands Antilles
         St. Martin                                French West Indies
         Antigua                                   West Indies

Our Construction division performs earthmoving, excavating, and filling
operations, builds golf courses, roads, and utility infrastructures, dredges
waterways and constructs deep-water piers and marinas in the Caribbean. We have
historically provided these land development services to both private
enterprises and governments in the Caribbean. We believe that our relationships
with customers in the Caribbean give us a competitive advantage. Our project
managers have substantial experience in land development construction, and our
equipment is well suited for the Caribbean markets. We have equipment and
personnel in the Caribbean that, we believe, often allow us to start work more
quickly and less expensively than other contractors. While we can bid
competitively and cost-effectively for these land development contracts, our
ability to mobilize quickly can sometimes cause us to incur higher expense
during low activity periods.

The following table sets forth financial highlights of our materials and
construction business. During the first quarter 2000, we sold our operations in
Tortola and Dominica, our concrete operations in St. Thomas and all our bulk
cement terminals. Total assets by segment and other information is further
described in Note 11 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Revenue by geographic  area includes sales to  unaffiliated  customers  based on
customer  location,  not the selling  entity's  location.  The Company moves its
equipment from country to country; therefore, to make this disclosure meaningful
the  geographic  area  separation  for assets is based upon the  location of the
legal entity owning the assets.

Business Address

Our executive offices are located at 1350 East Newport Center Drive, Suite 201,
Deerfield Beach, Florida 33442, our telephone number is (954) 429-1500 and our
web address is www.devc.com. In this document, the terms "Company" and "Devcon"
refer to Devcon International Corp. and its subsidiaries.

Business Development

Our business has shown different trends during the year. The construction
business has been slowing down, except for certain projects on the island of
Exuma in the Bahamas. Including these projects, the Construction division has
still shown a downward trend during the year. The Materials division business
has shown improved revenue the last three quarters of 2002 as compared to fourth
quarter 2001 and first quarter 2002.

In February 2003, the Company's subsidiary in St Maarten entered into an
agreement with the Island Territory of St Maarten, N. A. to sell up to 197
medium-priced homes, approximately $100,000 per home, in a developed subdivision
owned by the Island Government. The Company will initially build two model
homes, and will subsequently finance the construction of homes for buyers upon
receipt of firm sales contracts with mortgage financing approved by one of two

                                       3
<PAGE>
local banks. The mortgage financing is dependent on the establishment of a
mortgage guarantee fund by the Island Government. There is no assurance that
this fund will be established or that this project will go forward. As the
Company is traditionally engaged in land development contracting, if this
project goes forward, we will hire subcontractors to perform all the residential
construction. We also intend, to the extent possible, to sell construction
materials from the Materials division to the subcontractors, if the project
moves forward successfully.

From time to time, we investigate opportunities to expand our operations to
areas of the Caribbean where we presently have no business, and also
opportunities to expand our existing operations in related areas of operations.

The Company decided in 2001 to stop its operations in Aguadilla, Puerto Rico and
has leased all its equipment on the site to a company affiliated with one of the
joint venture owners of the subsidiary in Puerto Rico.

Risks of Foreign Operations

Portions of our operation in 2002 were conducted in foreign countries located in
the Caribbean, primarily Antigua and Barbuda, St. Maarten, St. Martin and the
Bahamas. In 2002, 62.8 percent of our revenue was derived from foreign
geographic areas. For a summary of our revenue and earnings from foreign
operations, see Notes 9 and 11 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
The risks of doing business in foreign areas include potential adverse changes
in U.S. diplomatic relations with foreign countries, changes in the relative
purchasing power of the U.S. dollar, hostility from local populations, adverse
effects of exchange controls, restrictions on the withdrawal of foreign
investment and earnings, government policies against businesses owned by
non-nationals, expropriations of property, the instability of foreign
governments, and any insurrection that could result in uninsured losses. We are
not subject to these risks in Puerto Rico or the U.S. Virgin Islands since these
are United States territories. The Company is also subject to U.S. federal
income tax upon the distribution of certain offshore earnings. See Note 8 of
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Although we have not encountered
significant difficulties in our foreign operations, there can be no assurance
that we will never encounter difficulties.

Materials Division

General In 2002, we manufactured and distributed ready-mix concrete, block and
crushed aggregate. We also distributed bagged cement. Our sales can be
segregated into certain product groups:

Our Materials division employed assets in 2002 such as:

o   Quarry Related Equipment                 o    Concrete Batch Plants
o   Aggregates Processing Plants             o    Fleet of Concrete Mixer Trucks
o   Concrete Block Plants                    o    Asphalt Plants

See additional information under Item 1 - Business-General.

Ready-Mix Concrete and Concrete Block Our concrete batch plants mix cement,
sand, crushed stone, water and chemical additives to produce ready-mix concrete
for use in local construction. Our fleet of concrete mixer trucks delivers the
concrete to the customer's job site. At our concrete block plants, a
low-moisture concrete mixture is machine-formed, then dried and stored for later
sale. Usually, our ready-mix concrete operations and concrete block plants are
the area's largest or only facility. We also sell a product we refer to as
soil-cement, which utilizes similar ingredients as our concrete, as well as some
by-products from our aggregates production. The production of soil-cement also
reduces the material that we have to dispose of.

Quarry Operations and Crushed Stone We own or lease quarry sites at which we
blast rock from exposed mineral formations. This rock is crushed to sizes
ranging from 3 1/2-inch stones down to manufactured sand. The resulting
aggregate is then sorted, cleaned and stored. The aggregate is sold to customers
and used in our operations to make concrete products. Our quarries are the
largest on four Caribbean islands. It is often less expensive to manufacture
crushed rock at our quarries than to import aggregate from off-island sources.

Bagged Cement In prior years, we owned and operated several bulk cement
terminals. In the beginning of 2000, all of the Company's cement terminals were
sold. As a result of this transaction we now enter the supply chain for cement
at a later stage, and purchase cement directly from the terminals we sold. The
Company purchases cement from these terminals for use in its concrete batch
plants, block plants and on some islands for resale in the form of bagged
cement.

Supplies We presently obtain all of the crushed rock and a majority of the sand
necessary for our production of ready-mix concrete from our own quarries. We
believe our ability to produce our own sand and stone gives us a competitive
advantage because of the substantial investment required to produce aggregates,
the difficulty in obtaining the necessary environmental permits to establish

                                       5
<PAGE>
quarries and the moratorium on mining beach sand imposed by most Caribbean
countries. We purchase cement from cement terminals located on the islands where
our operations are established and bulk cement is readily available from a
number of manufacturers located throughout the Caribbean basin.

Customers Our primary customers are building contractors, governments, asphalt
pavers and individual homeowners. Customers generally pick up quarry products,
concrete block and bagged cement at our facilities, and we generally deliver
ready-mix concrete to the customers' job sites.

Competition We have competitors in the materials business in the locations where
we conduct business. The competition includes local ready-mix concrete plants,
importers of aggregates and concrete blocks. We also encounter competition from
the producers of asphalt, which is an alternative material to concrete for road
construction. We believe our materials market share, resources, facilities,
local presence and cost structure give us a competitive advantage in the eastern
Caribbean markets where we operate.

Construction Division

General We have completed land development construction projects, including
interstate highways, airport sites and runways, deep-water piers and marinas,
hydraulic dredging, golf courses, and industrial, residential and commercial
site development.

The revenue related to the work performed by our Construction division is
generated on a contract-by-contract basis. The majority of our contracts are
completed in less than one year, although we obtain multi-year contracts from
time to time. These contracts are bid or negotiated at a fixed price, except for
changes in the scope of the work requested by the owner during the term of the
contract. The majority of our work is performed by our own labor and equipment
and is not subcontracted. We also enter into unit-price contracts where our fee
is based upon the quantity of work performed. This is often measured in yards,
meters or tons, rather than time.

Operations We obtain leads for new projects from customers and engineering firms
with whom we have established relationships. First, we decide whether to submit
a bid or negotiate to undertake a particular project. We prepare and submit
timely proposals detailing what we believe will best meet the customer's
objectives. We have also provided long-term or short-term financing to obtain
more profitable construction contracts, and any financing by us in the future is
contingent upon our financial position and operating results. Our Vice President
of Construction Operations and/or our President review project proposals and
bids. After a customer accepts our proposal, a formal contract is negotiated. We
are normally the prime contractor. We assign one of our field superintendents to
maintain close contact with the customer and its engineers, to supervise
personnel and the relocation, purchase, lease and maintenance of equipment, and
to schedule and monitor our operations.

Backlog Our backlog of unfulfilled portions of construction contracts at
December 31, 2002 was approximately $5.6 million involving 6 projects. One
Bahamian project's backlog amounted to approximately $3.3 million at the end of
2002. A subsidiary, our President and one of our directors are minority

                                       6
<PAGE>
partners, and our President is also a member of the managing committee of the
entity developing this project. The backlog of $5.6 million involving 6 projects
at the end of 2002 compares to $10.5 million involving 7 projects at December
31, 2001. Since December 31, 2002, through February 20, 2003, we have entered
into new construction contracts in the Caribbean amounting to $2.1 million, and
we are finalizing contracts for another $3.1 million that we estimate will be
signed shortly, however, no assurance can be given that these contracts will be
signed as expected. We are actively bidding and negotiating additional projects.
We expect most of the current backlog to be completed during 2003.

Bonding We must obtain a performance bond to bid on government construction
contracts and some private contracts. We have, in the past, been able to provide
performance and/or payment bonds, when required.

Customers Our primary customers are government entities, large contractors and
large landowners located through out the Caribbean basin. During 2002 there was
one customer in the Bahamas, for whom we recorded revenue of $8.4 million in the
year. Should this customer become insolvent or decide not to utilize our
services, the Construction division's revenue would be diminished substantially.
Our President and one of our directors are minority shareholders of this entity.

Competition Land development construction is extremely competitive. We compete
with smaller local contractors as well as larger US and European based
contractors in all our markets. Primary competitive factors include price, prior
experience and relationships, the equipment available to complete the job,
innovation, the available engineering staff to assist an owner in minimizing
costs, how quickly a company can complete a contract, and the ability to obtain
bonding which guarantees contract completion.

Tax Exemptions and Benefits

Some of our offshore earnings are taxed at rates lower than U.S. statutory
federal income tax rates due to tax exemptions and tax incentives. The U.S.
Virgin Islands Industrial Development Commission granted us tax exemptions on
most of our U.S. Virgin Islands earnings through March 2003. No decision has
been made as to whether or not we will seek an extension of this tax exemption,
and there is no guarantee that, if sought, it will be granted. If we do not have
the exemption, our taxes would be increased, however, some fees and scholarships
that we are currently granting would not continue. The impact of not having the
exemption is currently being reviewed.

U.S. tax laws provide that our offshore earnings are not taxable for U.S.
federal income tax purposes, and most post-April 1988 Materials division
earnings in the U.S. Virgin Islands can be distributed to us free of U.S. income
tax. Any distribution to Devcon International Corp, the parent company, of: (1)
earnings from our U.S. Virgin Islands operations accumulated prior to April 1,
1988; or (2) earnings from our Antigua, St. Martin and St. Maarten operations,
would subject us to U.S. federal income tax on the amounts distributed, less
applicable taxes paid in those jurisdictions according to specific rules. At
December 31, 2002, $35.8 million of accumulated earnings had not been
distributed to the parent company. We have not provided for U. S. federal income

                                       7
<PAGE>
tax on the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries because we intend to
permanently reinvest those earnings offshore, unless the earnings can be
repatriated in a tax-free manner.

Our tax exemption and our ability to receive most of the current earnings from
our U.S. Virgin Islands operations without being subject to U.S. federal income
taxes reduce our income tax expense. For further information on our tax
exemptions and income taxes, see Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements.

Equipment

Both of our businesses require us to lease or purchase and maintain equipment.
As of December 31, 2002, our equipment included cranes, bulldozers, road
graders, rollers, backhoes, earthmovers, a hydraulic dredge, barges, rock
crushers, concrete batch and block plants, concrete mixer trucks, asphalt
processing and paving equipment and other items. Some of this equipment is
encumbered by chattel mortgages. At certain times, a part of this equipment will
be idle in between construction jobs, and at times, certain equipment will be
idle for longer periods until suitable construction contracts are found. See
Notes 7 and 10 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Miscellaneous Investments and Joint Ventures

We have invested or participated in several joint ventures in connection with
our Construction and Materials divisions.

During the period 1998 through 2001, we invested a total of $186,000 for a 1.2
percent interest in a real estate joint venture in the Bahamas. The upscale
resort project is expected to finish its hotel construction by the middle of
2003 and open the resort shortly thereafter. Both our President and one of our
other directors have an interest in the joint venture. See Note 12 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.

During the period 1998 through 2001 we invested a total of $181,000 for a 33.3
percent interest in a real estate joint venture in Puerto Rico that owns the
land where the Aguadilla aggregate processing plant was operating. During 2002
we recognized earnings of $9,000 from this joint venture under the equity method
of accounting.

Executive Officers

The executive officers of the Company are as follows:

Donald L. Smith, Jr., 81, a co-founder of the Company, has served as its
Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer since its formation
in 1951.

Richard L. Hornsby, 67, was appointed the Company's Executive Vice President in
March 1989. Mr. Hornsby served as Vice President of the Company from August 1986

                                       8
<PAGE>

Henry C. Obenauf, 73, was appointed Vice President-Engineering of the Company in
March 1989, after having served as Vice President of the Company since 1977. The
Company has employed Mr. Obenauf for over 33 years.

Jan A. Norelid, 49, was appointed Vice President-Finance and Chief Financial
Officer in October 1997. From January 1996 to September 1997, he owned and
operated a printing company. From 1991 to 1995 he served as Chief Financial
Officer for Althin Medical, Inc., a medical device manufacturer.

Donald L. Smith, III, 50, was appointed Vice President-Construction Operations
for the Company in December 1992. Mr. Smith joined the Company in 1976 and has
served in supervisory and managerial positions within the Company since that
time.

Kevin M. Smith,  45, was  appointed  Vice  President-Materials  Division in June
2002.  Mr.  Smith  joined  the  Company  in 1989 and has  served  in  management
positions within the Company since that time.

Intellectual Property

We possess trade names used in the islands, of which none are registered. We
believe that trade names, which are normally the corporate names of our local
subsidiaries, have name recognition and are valuable to the Company. No asset
has been recorded for this purpose in our consolidated balance sheet.

Employees

At December 31, 2002, we employed 119 persons in the Construction division, of
whom 6 are members of a union. As of the same date, we employed 231 persons in
our Materials division, of whom 77 are members of a union. Most employees are
employed on a full-time basis. Employee relations are considered satisfactory.

Environmental Matters

We are involved, on a continuing basis, in monitoring our compliance with
environmental laws and in making capital and operating improvements necessary to
comply with existing and anticipated environmental requirements. While it is
impossible to predict with certainty, management currently does not foresee such
expenses in the near future as having a material effect on our business, results
of operations, or financial condition. See Item 3 and Note 16 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

We are involved in routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of our
business, primarily construction.

In the fall of 2000, Virgin Islands Cement and Building Products, Inc.
("VICBP"), a subsidiary of the Company, was under contract with the Virgin
Islands Port Authority ("VIPA") for the construction of the expansion of the St.
Croix Airport. During the project, homeowners and residents of the Yellow Cedar
Housing Community, located next to the end of the expansion project, claimed to
have experienced several days of excessive dust in their area as a result of the
ongoing construction work. The homeowners of Yellow Cedar have filed two
separate lawsuits against VIPA and VICBP as co-defendants. One suit, filed in
the U.S. District Court by Mariepaul Antoine, Benjamin Ashe, et. al, vs. VIPA
et. al, case #2001,63 R/F, seeks equitable relief from nuisance, specific
performance and damages. The second suit, Louisa Williams et. al vs. VIPA et. al
filed in the Territorial Court of the U.S.V.I. case #548/2000 seeks equitable
relief from nuisance, specific performance and damages. In both cases, VICBP, as
defendant, has agreed to indemnify VIPA for any civil action as a result of the
construction work. Reliance Insurance Company ("Reliance"), the general
liability carrier for VICBP during that period, has taken the legal position
that "dust" is a pollutant and, therefore, the pollution exclusion clause
applies and as a result denies liability insurance coverage to VICBP. Corporate
counsel in Florida, as well as in the U.S. Virgin Islands, have advised the
Company that laws now in place should enable the Company to enforce the duty to
defend contained in the liability policy, thus affording the Company a defense
of both legal actions. The Pennsylvania Insurance Commissioner placed Reliance
in rehabilitation in October 2001, and subsequently into liquidation. We have
also presented claims under the policy to the Florida Insurance Guaranty
Association, the V.I. Insurance Guaranty Association, and to the Pennsylvania
Insurance Commissioner. It is too early to predict the final outcome of this
matter or to estimate the potential risk of loss, if any, to the Company.

In the late 1980s, Bouwbedrijf Boven Winden, N.V., ("BBW") currently a Devcon
subsidiary in the Netherlands Antilles, supplied concrete to a large apartment
complex on the French side of St. Maarten. In the early 1990s the buildings
began to develop exterior cracking and "pop outs." In November 1993, BBW was
named one of several defendants including the building's insurer, in a suit
filed by Syndicat des Coproprietaires la Residence Le Flamboyant (condominium
owners association of Le Flamboyant), in the French court "Tribunal de Grande
Instance de Paris", case No. 510082/93. A French court assigned an expert to
examine the cause of the cracking and pop outs and to determine if the
cracking/pop outs are caused by a phenomenon known as alkali reaction (ARS). The
expert found, in his report dated December 3, 1998, that BBW was responsible for
the ARS. The plaintiff is seeking unspecified damages, including demolition and
replacement of the 272 apartments. Based on the advice of legal counsel, a
judgment assessed in a French court would not be enforceable against a
Netherlands Antilles company. Thus, in order to obtain an enforceable judgment,
the plaintiff would have to file a successful claim in an Antillean court. It is
too early to predict the final outcome of this matter or to estimate the
potential risk of loss, if any, to the Company. Due to the lack of
enforceability, the Company decided not to continue the defense in the French
court. Therefore, the Company may not be aware of recent developments in the
proceedings. Management believes our defenses to be meritorious and does not
believe that the outcome will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated
financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

                                       11
<PAGE>
We are subject to federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations.
We believe that the Company is in compliance with all such laws and regulations.
Compliance with environmental protection laws has not had a material adverse
impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash
flows in the past and is not expected to have a material adverse impact in the
foreseeable future.

As of February 20, 2003 there were 137 holders of record of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock and more than 440 beneficial owners holding our common
stock in their brokers' name. The closing sales price for the common stock on
February 19, 2003, was $6.70. We paid no dividends in 2002 or 2001. The payment
of cash dividends will depend upon the earnings, consolidated financial position
and cash requirements of the Company, its compliance with loan agreements, and
other relevant factors. We do not presently intend to pay cash dividends. No
unregistered securities were sold or issued in 2002, 2001 or 2000.

The Company has not made any material accounting changes in the past five years.
We disposed of several businesses in year 2000, as more precisely described in
Note 18 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and our Reports on form
8-K dated January 7, 2000 and February 22, 2000, respectively, which materially
affect the comparability of the selected financial data shown above. As we
continued to distribute cement on most islands after the sale of our cement
terminals, and as after the sale of our concrete business on St Thomas, the
buyer became our largest customer on the island of aggregates, it is not
practical to demonstrate the net sales, gross profit or net income of the
operations without the sold businesses.

The following is our selected quarterly financial data which should be read in
conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes
and with our "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and

Forward-Looking Statements

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the Reform Act) provides a
safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the
Corporation. The Corporation and its representatives may, from time to time,
make written or verbal forward-looking statements, including statements
contained in the Corporation's filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission and in its reports to stockholders. Generally, the inclusion of the

                                       15

<PAGE>
words "believe," "expect," "intend," "estimate," "anticipate," "will," and
similar expressions identify statements that constitute "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and that are intended to come
within the safe harbor protection provided by those sections. All statements
addressing operating performance, events, or developments that we expect or
anticipate will occur in the future, including statements relating to sales
growth, earnings or earnings per share growth, and market share, as well as
statements expressing optimism or pessimism about future operating results, are
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Reform Act.

The forward-looking statements are and will be based upon our management's
then-current views and assumptions regarding future events and operating
performance, and are applicable only as of the dates of such statements. We
undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

By their nature, all forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties.
Actual results, including our revenues from both are Construction and Materials
divisions, expenses, gross margins, cash flows, financial condition, and net
income, as well as factors such as our competitive position, inventory levels,
backlog, the demand for our products and services, customer base and the
liquidity and needs of our customers, may differ materially from those
contemplated by the forward-looking statements or those currently being
experienced by the Company for a number of reasons, including but not limited
to:

o      The strength of the construction economies on various islands in the
       Caribbean, primarily in the United States Virgin Islands, St Maarten, St.
       Martin, Antigua and Puerto Rico. Our business is subject to economic
       conditions in our markets, including recession, inflation, deflation,
       general weakness in construction and housing markets, and changes in
       infrastructure requirements.

o      Our ability to maintain mutually beneficial relationships with key
       customers. We have a number of significant customers. The loss of
       significant customers, the financial condition of our customers or an
       adverse change to the financial condition of our significant customers
       could have a material adverse effect on our business or the
       collectibility of our receivables.

o      Unforeseen inventory adjustments or significant changes in purchasing
       patterns by our customers and the resultant impact on manufacturing
       volumes and inventory levels.

o      Adverse changes in currency exchange rates or raw material commodity
       prices, both in absolute terms and relative to competitors' risk
       profiles. We have businesses in various foreign countries in the
       Caribbean. As a result, we are exposed to movements in the exchange rates
       of various currencies against the United States dollar. We believe our
       most significant foreign currency exposure is the Euro.

o      Increased competition. The Materials division operates in markets, which
       are highly competitive on the basis of price and quality. We compete with
       local suppliers of ready-mix, and foreign suppliers of aggregates and
       concrete block. Competition from certain of these manufacturers has
       intensified in recent years and is expected to continue. The Construction
       division has local and foreign competitors in its markets. Customer and
       competitive pressures sometimes have an adverse effect on our pricing.

                                       16

o      Our foreign operations may be affected by factors such as tariffs,
       nationalization, exchange controls, interest rate fluctuations, civil
       unrest, governmental changes, limitations on foreign investment in local
       business and other political, economic and regulatory conditions, risks
       or difficulties.

o      The effects of litigation, environmental remediation matters, and product
       liability exposures, as well as other risks and uncertainties detailed
       from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange
       Commission.

o      Our ability to generate sufficient cash flows to support capital
       expansion, business acquisition plans, our share repurchase program and
       general operating activities, and our ability to obtain necessary
       financing at favorable interest rates.

o      Changes in laws and regulations, including changes in accounting
       standards, taxation requirements, including tax rate changes, new tax
       laws and revised tax law interpretations, and environmental laws, in both
       domestic and foreign jurisdictions, and restrictions on repatriation of
       foreign investments.

o      The impact of unforeseen events, including war or terrorist activities,
       on economic conditions and consumer confidence.

o      Interest rate fluctuations and other capital market conditions.

o      Construction contracts with a fixed price sometimes suffer penalties that
       cannot be recovered by additional billing, which penalties may be due to
       circumstances in completing construction work, errors in bidding
       contracts, or changed conditions.

o      Adverse weather conditions, specifically heavy rains or hurricanes, which
       could reduce demand for our products.

The foregoing list is not exhaustive. There can be no assurance that we have
correctly identified and appropriately assessed all factors affecting our
business or that the publicly available and other information with respect to
these matters is complete and correct. Additional risks and uncertainties not
presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial also may
adversely impact us. Should any risks and uncertainties develop into actual
events, these developments could have material adverse effects on our business,
financial condition, and results of operations. For these reasons, you are
cautioned not to place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion of our financial condition and results of operations is an
analysis of the Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America ("GAAP"), consistently applied. Although our significant accounting
policies are described in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statement, the following discussion is intended to describe those accounting
policies and estimates most critical to the preparation of our consolidated
financial statements. The preparation of these Consolidated Financial Statements
requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we
evaluate our estimates, including those related to allowance for credit losses,
valuation of the Antigua and Barbuda notes, inventories and loss reserve for
inventories, cost to complete of construction contracts, assets held for sale,
intangible assets, income taxes, specifically the Antigua tax assessments, tax
on un-repatriated earnings, warranty obligations, restructuring, business
divestitures, pensions, deferral compensation and other employee benefit plans
or arrangements, environmental matters, and contingencies and litigation. We
base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we
believe to be reasonable, the results of which, form the basis for making
judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not
readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these
estimates.

We believe the following critical accounting policies affect the more
significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our Consolidated
Financial Statements:

o    Revenue and  earnings on  construction  contracts,  including  construction
     joint ventures are recognized on the percentage-of-completion-method  based
     upon the  ratio of costs  incurred  to  estimated  final  costs,  for which
     collectibility  is reasonably  assured.  Provisions  are  recognized in the
     statement of income for the full amount of estimated  losses on uncompleted
     contracts  whenever  evidence  indicates that the estimated total cost of a
     contract exceeds its estimated total revenue.  Contract cost is recorded as
     incurred and revisions in contract revenue and cost estimates are reflected
     in the  accounting  period when known.  Revenue in an amount  equal to cost
     incurred  is  recognized  prior  to  contracts   reaching  25%  completion.
     Change-orders  for  additional  contract  revenue are  recognized  if it is
     probable that they will result in additional  revenue and the amount can be
     reliably  estimated.  The related  earnings  are not  recognized  until the
     period in which such percentage  completion is attained. It is our judgment
     that  until  a  project  reaches  25%  completion,  there  is  insufficient
     information  to  determine  with a reasonable  level of assurance  what the
     estimated  profit on the project will be. We estimate costs to complete our
     construction  contracts  based on experience from similar work in the past.
     If the  conditions of the work to be performed  changes or if the estimated
     costs are not  accurately  projected,  the gross  profit from  construction
     contracts may vary significantly in the future.  The foregoing,  as well as
     weather,  stage of completion and mix of contracts at different margins may
     cause  fluctuations in gross profit between periods and these  fluctuations
     may be significant.

                                       18

<PAGE>
o    We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting
     from management's  review and assessment of our customers'  ability to make
     required payments.  We consider the age of specific accounts,  a customer's
     payment history and specific collateral given by the customer to secure the
     receivable.   If  the  financial   condition  of  our  customers   were  to
     deteriorate,  resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments,
     additional  allowances  might be required.  If the customers pay a previous
     impaired receivable, income is then recognized.

o    We maintain reserves for estimated  obsolescence or unmarketable  inventory
     for the difference  between the cost of inventory and the estimated  market
     value based upon  assessments  about  current and future  demand and market
     conditions.  If actual market  conditions  were to be less  favorable  than
     those  projected by  management,  additional  inventory  reserves  could be
     required.  If the actual  market demand  surpasses  the  projected  levels,
     certain  inventory  reserves  would be removed and the result of operations
     would be higher than expected.

o    We  maintain  an accrual  for  deferred  compensation  agreements  with the
     Company's  President and certain other employees.  This accrual is based on
     the life  expectancy  of these  persons  and the  assumed  Company-specific
     long-term  interest rate for debt, 8 percent.  Should the actual  longevity
     vary  significantly  from the United States  insurance norms, or should the
     interest  rate  used  to  establish  the  present  value  of  the  deferred
     compensation  obligation  vary,  the accrual  may have to be  significantly
     increased or diminished at that time.

o    Based on written legal opinion from Antiguan counsel,  we have not recorded
     a liability of $6.1 million,  not including any interest or penalties,  for
     taxes  assessed by the Government of Antigua and Barbuda for the years 1995
     through 1999.  The  Government  may also assess further taxes for the years
     prior and  subsequent  to the assessed  tax years.  We are  appealing  said
     assessments.  However,  if our appeal is not successful,  a significant tax
     liability  may have to be  recorded.  We do not  believe  losing the appeal
     would have an  immediate  effect on our cash  flow,  as the  Government  of
     Antigua and  Barbuda  owes us in excess of $30.0  million,  and we have the
     right of to offset against any amounts owed the government. See Notes 3 and
     8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

o    We  have  $35.8   million  of   un-repatriated   earnings  in  our  foreign
     subsidiaries.  We have no intention of bringing  these earnings back to the
     United States, unless we can do so in a tax-free manner. However, should we
     be forced to repatriate the earnings,  we would have to recognize and pay a
     substantial  U.S.  federal  income tax. The tax would be  approximately  34
     percent of the repatriated amount, or potentially $12.2 million.

o    We were accounting for the notes  receivable from the Government of Antigua
     and Barbuda under the cost-recovery method until April 2000.  Subsequent to
     a restructuring of the notes, we started to account for the notes using the
     accrual  method.  We  record  payments  received,  first  to the  projected
     principal  reductions for the period, then to accrued interest,  and lastly
     to additional reduction of principal.  Interest income is recognized on the
     notes only to the extent payments are recorded for accrued interest. Should

                                       19

<PAGE>
     the  payments  from  the  government   diminish   substantially  or  become
     uncertain,  we may have to revert to the cost-recovery method or impair the
     notes. This could decrease our earnings significantly.  See Note 3 of Notes
     to Consolidated Financial Statements. The Government was delayed in certain
     of its payments due in the fourth  quarter of 2002 and,  consequently,  the
     Company  recorded  $497,000 less in interest income compared to the average
     of the first three  quarters of 2002.  Subsequent  to year-end  the Company
     received payment for all past due amounts from 2002.

o    We record a valuation  allowance  to reduce our  deferred tax assets to the
     amount  that  is  more  likely  than  not to be  realized.  While  we  have
     considered  future  taxable  income and ongoing  prudent and  feasible  tax
     planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation  allowance,  in
     the event that we were to  determine  that we would be able to realize  our
     deferred tax assets in the future in excess of the net recorded amount,  an
     adjustment  to the deferred tax asset would  increase  income in the period
     such  determination was made.  Likewise,  should we determine that we would
     not be able to  realize  all or part of our net  deferred  tax asset in the
     future,  an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would be charged to income
     in the period such determination was made.

We are not presently considering changes to any of our critical accounting
policies and we do not presently believe that any of our critical accounting
policies are reasonably likely to change in the near future. There have not been
any material changes to the methodology used in calculating our estimates during
the last three years, except for the Company starting to recognize interest
income for payments received from the Government of Antigua and Barbuda in April
2000, see Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The CEO, CFO and
the Audit Committee have reviewed all of the foregoing critical accounting
policies and estimates.


Comparison of Year Ended December 31, 2002 with Year Ended December 31, 2001

Total Revenue

Our revenue was $53.4 million in 2002 and $54.9 million in 2001. This 2.8
percent decrease reflects a decrease in materials revenue, partially offset by
an increase in construction revenue.

Our materials revenue decreased 5.0 percent to $37.7 million in 2002 from $39.7
million in 2001. This decrease was primarily due to reduction in sale of
concrete, block and aggregates, and reduced sale of cement due to the
termination of our cement distribution agreement with Union Maritima
International, S.A. on March 1, 2001. Concrete and block revenue diminished 5.7%
and 7.6%, respectively, mainly due to the completion in early 2002 of a large
construction project on St. Croix and reduced volumes on St. Martin, offset to a
lesser extent by improved volumes on Antigua. Aggregates revenue was reduced by
3.0%, mainly due to reduced activity on Puerto Rico, offset to a lesser extent
by improved volumes on Antigua. We believe the poor result on St. Maarten/St.
Martin is a result of a slowdown in the island's economy due to reduced tourism
on that island in the aftermath of the events of September 11, 2001. However, we
have seen continued strengthening demand in the U.S. Virgin Islands and Antigua
over the last year. At this time we cannot predict materials revenue levels in
2003.

                                       20
<PAGE>

Revenue from our Construction division increased 2.9 percent to $15.6 million in
2002 from $15.2 million in 2001. This increase resulted primarily from increased
activity in the Bahamas and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Our backlog of unfilled
portions of land development contracts at December 31, 2002 was approximately
$5.6 million involving 6 projects, as compared to approximately $10.5 million
involving 7 projects at December 31, 2001. The backlogs of the contracts on
Exuma in the Bahamas at December 31, 2002 were approximately $3.3 million. Since
December 31, 2002, through February 20, 2003, we have entered into new
construction contracts in the Caribbean amounting to approximately $2.1 million,
and we are finalizing contracts for another $3.1 million that we estimate will
be signed shortly, however, no assurance can be given that these contracts will
be signed as expected. We are actively bidding and negotiating additional
projects. We expect most of the current backlog to be completed during 2003.

Cost of Materials

Cost of materials increased slightly to 81.5 percent of materials revenue from
81.1 percent in 2001. This increase was primarily the result of a decrease in
revenue, which resulted in fixed costs of sales weighing heavier on the margins
for the division, and reduced margins in St. Martin.

Cost of Construction

Cost of construction increased to 94.7 percent of construction revenue in 2002
from 82.0 percent in 2001. This increase is primarily attributable to the marine
equipment having profitable work in 2001 and being idle in 2002, the cost of
which includes depreciation and continuous maintenance of the equipment, and
also to the varying profitability levels of individual contracts and the stage
of completion of such contracts.

Operating Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A expense") increased by 5.9
percent to $10.9 million in 2002 from $10.3 million in 2001. The increase in
SG&A expense was primarily due to retirement and severance expense and losses on
foreign exchange. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expense increased to 20.4
percent during 2002 as compared to 18.7 percent during the previous year.

Due to lower profitability and lower volumes affecting certain assets,
management upon its review in 2002 and 2001 of long-lived assets, determined
that impairment had occurred to some of our assets. An impairment expense of
$16,000 was recognized in 2002 compared to $31,000 in 2001.

Operating (Loss) Income

We had an operating loss of $3.0 million in 2002 compared to income of $8,000 in
2001. Our Materials division had an operating loss of $672,000 in 2002, compared
to $23,000 in 2001. This increased operating loss is mainly due to the
operations on St. Maarten/St. Martin, offset to a lesser extent by improved

                                       21

<PAGE>
results on other islands, in particular Antigua and St. Thomas. The operations
in St. Maarten/St. Martin were affected by lower volumes, increased costs in
terms of severance expenses and loss on foreign exchange. Although there is no
assurance, we believe that the operations in St. Maarten/St. Martin will improve
during 2003, due to earlier lay-offs of personnel and projected improved
volumes. However, the operations may not reach a break-even level in the near
future. We see some continuing strength in St Thomas and Antigua, but do not
presently anticipate significant changes in Puerto Rico and St. Croix. Our
Construction division had an operating loss of $1.3 million in 2002 compared to
income of $1.2 million in 2001. This decrease was primarily attributable to the
marine division's having profitable work in 2001 and being idle in 2002, also we
had lower margins on some contracts during 2002. The current backlog is
comparatively low; therefore, unless we can achieve success in our current
negotiations and bids for new contracts, we may see continuing poor results for
the division in 2003.

Other Income

At the time of the sale of the operations in Dominica in 2000, the Company
entered into a profit and loss participation agreement that expired on March 31,
2002. During this time the gain on the sale of the operations was deferred. At
March 31, 2002, the Company recognized a gain on sale of business of $1.0
million. Gain on sale of equipment was $180,000 in 2002, compared to $71,000 for
the previous year. Our interest expense decreased to $167,000 in 2002 from
$435,000 in 2001 due to a reduction of outstanding debt and reduced interest
rates. Our interest income of $3.6 million remained approximately the same in
2002 compared to the previous year, interest recognized on notes receivable due
from the Government of Antigua and Barbuda increased in 2002, while interest
received on outstanding accounts receivable diminished. The minority interest
allocation of losses decreased to $0 in 2002 from $52,000 in 2001, mainly
because the losses in Puerto Rico cannot be allocated to the joint venture
partners, as their equity has been exhausted.

Income Taxes

Income taxes decreased to $395,000 in 2002 from $829,000 in 2001. Our tax rate
varies depending on the level of our earnings in the various tax jurisdictions
where we operate, the tax loss carry-forwards and tax exemptions available to
us. The effective tax rate was 24.8 percent in 2002 as compared to 25.4 percent
in 2001. The Company is currently appealing tax assessments in Antigua for $6.1
million, as has been previously discussed. See also Item 3 and Notes 8 and 16 of
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Net Income

Our net income was $1.2 million in 2002 compared to $2.4 million in 2001. This
reduction in profitability was primarily attributable to our operating loss of
$3.0 million, partially offset by a gain on sale of business of $1.0 million,
improvement of the net interest income/expense from $3.1 million in 2001 to $3.4
million in 2002 and a decrease of income taxes.

                                       22

<PAGE>

Comparison of Year Ended December 31, 2001 with Year Ended December 31, 2000

Total Revenue

Our revenue was $54.9 million in 2001 and $65.2 million in 2000. This 15.9
percent decrease reflects a decrease in materials revenue, partially offset by
an increase in construction revenue.

Our materials revenue decreased 22.1 percent to $39.7 million in 2001 from $51.0
million in 2000. This decrease was primarily due to the sale of our cement
terminals in the Caribbean and the sale of our operations in Dominica in 2000
and to the termination of a cement distribution agreement in March 2001.
Excluding these operations, materials revenue decreased by 7.2 percent,
primarily due to decreased demand for block and concrete in St. Martin and
Antigua. We have, during the fourth quarter of 2001, seen significantly
diminished demand in our St. Martin and Antigua operations. We believe this is a
result of a slowdown in the islands' economy due to reduced tourism in those
islands in the aftermath of the events of September 11, 2001. However, we have
seen continued strengthening demand in the U.S. Virgin Islands over the last
year.

Revenue from our Construction division increased 6.2 percent to $15.2 million in
2001 from $14.3 million in 2000. This increase resulted primarily from increased
activity with our dredge in St. Martin, partially offset by lower activity in
the U.S. Virgin Islands and Antigua. Our backlog of unfilled portions of land
development contracts at December 31, 2001 was approximately $10.5 million
involving 7 projects, as compared to approximately $13.0 million involving 7
projects at December 31, 2000. The backlogs of the contracts in the Bahamas at
December 31, 2001 was approximately $7.2 million.

Cost of Materials

Cost of materials decreased slightly to 81.1 percent of materials revenue from
83.6 percent in 2000. The cost decrease was due to the reduction of sales of
cement that had a lower margin than the rest of our business. The cost of
materials for the Materials division, excluding cement, decreased to 80.5
percent in 2001 as compared to 81.5 percent in 2000.

Cost of Construction

Cost of construction increased to 82.0 percent of construction revenue in 2001
from 80.2 percent in 2000. Increased costs as a percent of revenue were due to
lower profitability on some 2001 contracts. Our gross margins are also affected
by the profitability of each contract and the stage of completion.

Operating Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A expense") decreased by 16.9
percent to $10.3 million in 2001 from $12.3 million in 2000. This decrease is
primarily due a reduction in impairment expense, bad debt expense, labor cost,
fees and other taxes.

                                       23
<PAGE>
Due to lower profitability, lower volumes and hurricane damages affecting
certain assets, management, upon its review in 2001 and 2000 of long-lived
assets, determined that impairment had occurred to some of our assets. An
impairment expense of $31,000 was recognized in 2001 compared to $702,000 in
2000. In 2000, the remaining goodwill recorded in connection with the purchase
of our subsidiary in St. Martin was impaired by $378,000 due to projected low
profitability. In addition, in 2000 the remaining assets in Saba were determined
to be impaired due to the closure of its operations, and certain obsolete
equipment was also determined to be impaired.

Operating (Loss) Income

Operating income was $8,000 in 2001 compared to a loss of $1.2 million in 2000.
Our Materials division had operating income of $23,000 in 2001, compared to a
loss of $1.6 million in 2000. This improvement is primarily due to improved
profitability in most islands relating primarily to reduced cost of production
as well as reduced SG&A expenses. Over the last two years we have seen an
improvement in the operating income of the Materials division. However, there
are risks that this trend cannot be sustained and that the division's results
may decrease in the near future. Our Construction division had operating income
of $1.2 million in 2001 compared to $1.3 million in 2000. This is primarily
attributable to lower margins on some contracts. Due to possible lower activity
in 2002, we may see reduced earnings, however, the remaining backlog is
estimated to have reasonable gross profit margins.

Other Income

In 2000, we recognized a gain on the sale of our cement terminals and the
concrete business in St. Thomas and the Tortola operation, in the aggregate
amount of $18.3 million. We had gains on sale of other property and equipment of
$71,000 in 2001 compared to $154,000 in 2000. Our interest expense decreased to
$435,000 in 2001 from $913,000 in 2000 due to a substantial reduction of
outstanding debt, utilizing the proceeds of our sales of operations as mentioned
above. Our interest income increased to $3.5 million in 2001 compared to $2.5
million in 2000. Our interest income increased due to interest recognized on
notes receivable due from the Government of Antigua and Barbuda, and to interest
received on outstanding accounts and notes receivable. The minority interest
allocation of losses decreased to $52,000 in 2001 from $314,000 in 2000, mainly
because the losses in Puerto Rico cannot be allocated to the joint venture
partners as their equity has been exhausted.

Income Taxes

Income taxes increased to $829,000 in 2001 from $716,000 in 2000. Our tax rate
varies depending on the level of our earnings in the various tax jurisdictions
where we operate, the tax loss carry-forwards and tax exemptions available to
us. The effective tax rate was 25.4 percent in 2001 as compared to 3.7 percent
in 2000. See Notes 8 and 16 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

                                       24

<PAGE>
Net Income

Our net income was $2.4 million in 2001 compared to a net income of $18.5
million in 2000. This reduction in profitability was primarily attributable to
the $18.3 million profit recognized on the sales of assets in the beginning of
year 2000, partially offset by a net interest income increase from $1.6 million
in 2000 to $3.1 million in 2001, and a reduction of our operating loss by $1.2
million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We generally fund our working capital needs from operations and bank borrowings.
In the construction business, we expend considerable funds for equipment, labor
and supplies. Our capital needs are greatest at the start of a new contract,
since we generally must complete 45 to 60 days of work before receiving the
first progress payment. As a project continues, a portion of the progress
billing is usually withheld as retainage until the work is complete. We
sometimes provide long term financing to customers who have previously utilized
our construction services. During 2002, we financed $1.1 million, and the
outstanding balance of the financed construction contracts as of December 31,
2002 was $3.0 million, all of which is due to be paid at different times within
the next three years. Accounts receivable for the Materials division are
typically outstanding for 60 days or longer. Our business requires a continuing
investment in plant and equipment, along with the related maintenance and upkeep
costs.

Management believes our cash flow from operations, existing working capital, and
funds available from lines of credit are adequate to meet our needs during the
next 12 months. Historically, we have used a number of lenders to finance a
portion of our machinery and equipment purchases. At December 31, 2002, there
were no amounts outstanding to these lenders. Management believes it has
significant collateral and financial stability to be able to obtain significant
financing, should it be required, though no assurances can be made.

As of December 31, 2002, our liquidity and capital resources included cash and
cash equivalents of $9.0 million, working capital of $19.7 million and available
lines of credit of $1.4 million. Total outstanding liabilities were $13.4
million as of December 31, 2002 compared to $14.1 million a year earlier.

Cash flow provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2002
was $4.1 million compared with $3.3 million for the year ended December 31,
2001. The primary use of cash for operating activities during the year ended
December 31, 2002 was an increase in costs and estimated earnings in excess of
billings of $1.8 million, an increase in inventories of $534,000 and a decrease
in billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings. The primary source of
cash from operating activities was an increase in accounts payable and accrued
expenses of $944,000, a decrease in receivables of $553,000 and an increase in
deferred gain and other non-current liabilities of $517,000.

Net cash used in investing activities was $1.4 million in 2002, including
purchases of property, plant, and equipment of $3.4 million, offset by payments
received on notes of $2.2 million. Net cash used in financing activities was
$1.8 million, including purchases of treasury stock of $988,000 and principal
payments on indebtness of $884,000.

Our accounts receivable averaged 53 days of sales outstanding as of December 31,
2002. This is an improvement from 78 days at the end of December 2001. The
Company's Materials division improved to 50 days as compared to 60 days at the
end of the previous year. The improvements were particularly noticeable in
Antigua, of which a part is due to large payments from one customer, in
particular. We have seen smaller improvements in St Thomas, Puerto Rico and St
Maarten, but have also seen deterioration in St. Martin. The Construction
division has improved substantially to 61 days as compared to 113 days at the
end of last year. The improvement was due to large cash receipts from the
venture in the Bahamas in the beginning of the year. We do not consider notes
receivable in this calculation. See Notes 3 and 12 of Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements.

We have a $1.0 million unsecured overdraft facility from a commercial bank in
the United States. The facility is due on demand and bears interest at a rate
variable with LIBOR. The bank can demand repayment of the loan and cancellation
of the overdraft facility, if certain financial or other covenants are in
default. At December 31, 2002, we had $11,000 outstanding under this line. This
facility was put in place to help cash management strategies. We have similar
overdraft facilities with Caribbean banks totaling $385,000. At December 31,
2002, we had no outstanding amounts on these facilities.

At December 31, 2002 we had borrowed $2.1 million from the Company's President.
The note to the President is unsecured and bears interest at the prime rate.
Presently, $300,000 is due on demand and $1.8 million is due on July 1, 2004.
The President has the option to make the note due on demand should a "Change of
Control" occur. A Change of Control is deemed to have occurred if a person or
group acquires 15 percent or more of the common stock or announces a tender
offer that, if successful, would result in ownership by a person or group of 15
percent or more of the common stock.

We purchase equipment as needed for our ongoing business operations. We are
currently replacing or upgrading some equipment used by the Materials division,
principally concrete trucks and quarry equipment. This resulted in a net cash
expenditure of $3.4 million in 2002. At present, management believes that our
inventory of construction equipment is adequate for our current contractual
commitments and operating activities. New construction contracts may, depending
on the nature of the contract and job location and duration, require us to make
significant investments in heavy construction equipment. The Company has
identified certain idle equipment in the material division and is currently
trying to sell this equipment. During 2002 we sold equipment with an original
cost basis of $2.1 million and a net book value of $350,000. The net proceeds
consisting of cash and notes receivable were $530,000. We realized a gain of
approximately $180,000 on these transactions. We believe we have available funds
or can obtain sufficient financing for our contemplated equipment replacements
and additions.

In September 2001, the Company decided to stop its operations on Aguadilla,
Puerto Rico. There was no material impact on the Consolidated Financial
Statements. The Company has leased, with option to buy, its equipment on this
site to a company controlled by one of the joint venture owners of the Company's
subsidiary in Puerto Rico. The lease rate should generate a small income after
depreciation and interest on the equipment.

Our notes receivable at December 31, 2002 include $6.8 million in promissory
notes from the Government of Antigua, with approximately $525,000 classified as
a current receivable. See Notes 3, 8 and 16 of Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements.

Our only issued guarantee is more fully described below under "Contingent
Liabilities" and our short-term borrowings, long-term debt, other long-term
obligations and lease commitments are more fully described in Notes 7, 8, and

As part of the 1995, subsequently renegotiated in 1999, acquisition of Societe
des Carrieres de Grand Case ("SCGC"), a French company operating a ready-mix
concrete plant and quarry in St. Martin, the Company agreed to pay the quarry
owners, who were also the owners of SCGC, a royalty payment of $500,000 per year
through July 2004 and rent of $50,000 per year through July 2005. The agreements
may be renewed, at the Company's option, for a successive five-year period and
would require annual payments of $500,000 and $50,000 per year, respectively. At
the end of the 15-year royalty period, the Company has the option to purchase
this 50-hectare property for $4.4 million.

We have not guaranteed any other person's or company's debt, except as set forth
below in "Contingent Liabilities." We have not entered into any currency or
interest options, swaps or future contracts, nor do we have any off-balance
sheet debts or transactions, except as disclosed below under "Contingent
Liabilities."

We are sometime involved in litigation; the outcome of such litigation may in
the future have an impact on our liquidity. See item 3 above.

Contingent Liabilities

During the second quarter 2002, the Company issued a construction contract
performance guarantee together with one of the Company's customers, Northshore
Partners, Inc., ("Northshore"), in favor of Estate Plessen Associates L.P. and
JPMorgan Chase Bank, for $5.1 million. Northshore Partners is an important

                                       27

<PAGE>
customer on St. Croix and the construction contract that Northshore Partners has
with Estate Plessen Associate L.P. has requirements for our construction
materials. Although there is no assurance, we do not presently believe that this
guarantee will have any material impact on our liquidity or capital resources or
any material negative impact on our financial position or results of operations.
In the case that Northshore is unable to fulfill its commitments of the
construction contract, the Company will be obligated to take Northshore's place
and finish the contract. The Company is closely monitoring the progress of
construction. The Company issued a letter of credit for $500,000 as collateral
for the transaction and has not yet had any expenses in connection with this
transaction. The construction project is estimated to be finished within two
years and the guarantee expires two years after completion. The Company received
an up front fee of $154,000, and has recognized a receivable for additional
$52,000. At the same time, a long-term liability of the total amount has been
recorded, which may be recognized to income, once it is determined that no
liability exists for the project, less any amounts paid by us in connection with
the performance guarantee.

We have no other off-balance sheet transactions where we are the obligors.
Details regarding the Company's other contingent liabilities are described fully
in Note 16 of Notes to the Consolidated Statements.

Related Party Transactions

We have engaged in transactions with some of our Directors or employees. See
Note 12 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and item 13 of Part
III

We lease from the Company President, Mr. Donald L. Smith, Jr. a 3.4-acre parcel
of real property in Deerfield Beach, Florida of which a smaller portion is
actually utilized by the Company. This property is being used for our equipment
logistics and maintenance activities. The annual rent for the period 1996
through 2001 was $49,000, which was below market rent for the utilized portion
of the property. In January 2002, a new 5-year agreement was signed; the rent
was increased to $95,000. This rent was based on comparable rental contracts for
similar properties in Deerfield Beach.

We have borrowed $2.1 million from Mr. Smith, our President, to provide
long-term financing to the Company and security for a payment-guarantee issued
by Mr. Smith on behalf of an entity in the Bahamas. The loan is documented with
an unsecured note; of which $300,000 is payable on demand and $1.8 million is
due on July 1, 2004. The interest charged by Mr. Smith is at the prime rate. We
believe that these terms are similar to what the Company would be able to
achieve if we were to borrow this money from a bank. Our board approved this
transaction in advance. See Liquidity and Capital Resources above.

We have a $28.2 million construction contract with an entity in the Bahamas. Mr.
Smith and Mr. Steele, a director of our Company, are minority shareholders in
the entity, 11.3 percent and 1.0 percent, respectively. Mr. Smith is also a
member of the entity's managing committee. We believe the contract has been
entered into at arm's length and at terms and conditions that we would offer our
other customers. Prices established for the work are dependent on market
conditions and unique conditions to the environment of the Bahamas. In
connection with this contract, the Company recorded revenue of $8.4 million

                                       28

<PAGE>
during 2002. The backlog on the contract as of December 31, 2002 was $3.0
million. As of December 31, 2002 we had trade receivables from the venture of
approximately $1.3 million and the cost and estimated earnings in excess of
billings was $1.5 million. Mr. Smith has guaranteed the payment of the
receivables from the entity, up to a maximum of $2.5 million.

Our joint venture subsidiary in Puerto Rico has transactions with the joint
venture partners. A company controlled by one of the partners provides drilling
and blasting services for our quarry in Guaynabo. The price for the services is
negotiated periodically, primarily by comparison to the cost of performing that
work by us. The subsidiary recently entered into a 36-month lease agreement for
equipment located in the Aguadilla facility with another company controlled by
this partner. The agreement also contains an option to buy the equipment. The
price of the lease and the sales price of the equipment were negotiated between
the parties at arm's length. There are no clear comparable prices in the market
place, and no third party evaluation of the fairness of the transaction was
completed. The subsidiary will recuperate its recorded book value of the assets,
should the purchase option be exercised.

The same subsidiary sells a significant portion of its products to a company
controlled by another joint venture partner. In 2002 our subsidiary's revenue
from these sales was $3,452,000. This partner is controlled by one of our
directors; Jose A. Bechara, Jr. Esq. The price of the products is governed by
firm supply agreements, renegotiated every other year. Comparable prices from
other quarries are studied and used in the price negotiation.

Other assets include amounts due from officers and employees as a result of
payments made by the Company pursuant to a split-dollar life insurance plan. Our
advances to pay premiums are secured by a pledge of the cash value of the issued
policies. Amounts due to the Company under the split-dollar life insurance plan
were $974,418 in 2002 and $943,638 in 2001, respectively. No payments were made
since July 2002 on these policies and no commitments exist to make any further
payments on the policies.

The board has adopted a policy that all future related party transactions be
approved by a majority of disinterested directors in advance. We believe that
all of the foregoing related party transactions were entered into on an
arms-length basis.

New Accounting Standards

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations" ("SFAS 143"). SFAS 143 requires the Company to record the fair
value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which it
incurs a legal obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived
assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development, and/or
normal use of the assets. The Company also records a corresponding asset that is
depreciated over the life of the asset. Subsequent to the initial measurement of
the asset retirement obligation, the obligation will be adjusted at the end of
each period to reflect the passage of time and changes in the estimated future
cash flows underlying the obligation. The Company is required to adopt SFAS 143
on January 1, 2003. The adoption of SFAS 143 is not expected to have a material
effect on the Company's financial position and results of operations.

                                       29

<PAGE>
In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No.
4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections"
("SFAS 145"). SFAS 145 amends existing guidance on reporting gains and losses on
the extinguishments of debt to prohibit the classification of the gain or loss
as extraordinary, as the use of such extinguishments have become part of the
risk management strategy of many companies. SFAS 145 also amends SFAS No. 13 to
require sale-leaseback accounting for certain lease modifications that have
economic effects similar to sale-leaseback transactions. The provisions of the
Statement related to the rescission of Statement No. 4 are applied in fiscal
years beginning after May 15, 2002. Earlier application of these provisions is
encouraged. The provisions of the Statement related to Statement No. 13 were
effective for transactions occurring after May 15, 2002, with early application
encouraged. The adoption of SFAS 145 is not expected to have a material effect
on the Company's financial position and results of operations.

In July 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities" ("SFAS
146"). SFAS 146 will be effective for the Company for disposal activities
initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company does not expect adoption of SFAS
146 to have a material impact on its financial position and results of
operations.

In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting
and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of
Indebtedness to Others, an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57 and 107
and a rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34." This Interpretation elaborates
on the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial
statements about its obligations under guarantees issued. The Interpretation
also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at inception of a
guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken. The
initial recognition and measurement provisions of the Interpretation are
applicable to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002 and are not
expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial position and
results of operations. The disclosure requirements are effective for financial
statements of interim and annual periods ending after December 31, 2002

During November 2002, the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") reached a
consensus on EITF Issue 00-21, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements, which
addresses how to account for arrangements that may involve the delivery or
performance of multiple products, services, and/or rights to use assets. The
final consensus will be applicable to agreements entered into in fiscal periods
beginning after June 15, 2003, with early adoption permitted. The Company does
not expect that the adoption will have an impact on the Company's financial
position and results of operations.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148 "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation - Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No.
123" ("SFAS 148"). SFAS 148 amends SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation" ("SFAS 123") to provide alternative methods of transition for a
voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based
employee compensation. In addition, SFAS 148 amends the disclosure requirements
of SFAS 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim
financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee

                                       30

<PAGE>
compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The
provisions of SFAS 148 are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15,
2002 and the interim disclosure provisions are effective for interim periods
beginning after December 15, 2002. The Company currently plans to continue to
apply the intrinsic-value based method to account for stock options and has
adopted the disclosure requirements of SFAS 148 in the notes to these
consolidated financial statements.

Environmental Matters

We are involved, on a continuing basis, in monitoring our compliance with
environmental laws and in making capital and operating improvements necessary to
comply with existing and anticipated environmental requirements. While it is
impossible to predict with certainty, management currently does not foresee such
expenses in the future as having a material effect on our business, results of
operations, or financial condition.


Item 7A  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company is exposed to financial market risks due primarily to changes in
interest rates, which it manages primarily by managing the maturities of its
financial instruments. The Company does not use derivatives to alter the
interest characteristics of its financial instruments. Management does not
believe a change in interest rate will materially affect the Company's financial
position or results of operations.

The Company has significant operations overseas. Generally, all significant
activities of the overseas affiliates are recorded in their functional currency,
which is generally the currency of the country of domicile of the affiliate. The
foreign functional currencies that the Company deals with are Netherlands
Antilles Guilders, Eastern Caribbean Units and Euros. The first two are pegged
to the U.S. dollar and have remained fixed for many years. Management does not
believe a change in the Euro exchange rate will materially affect the Company's
financial position or result of operations. The French operations are
approximately 10 percent of the Company's total operations.

                          Independent Auditors' Report


The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Devcon International Corp.:

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Devcon International
Corp. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as listed in the accompanying index. In
connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we also
have audited the financial statement schedule as listed in the accompanying
index. These consolidated financial statements and this financial statement
schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and this
financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Devcon International
Corp. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year
period ended December 31, 2002 in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the
related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all
material respects, the information set forth therein.

                           DEVCON INTERNATIONAL CORP.
                                AND SUBSIDIARIES


(1)      Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

         (a)      Devcon International Corp. and its subsidiaries (the
                  "Company") produce and distribute ready-mix concrete, crushed
                  stone, concrete block, and asphalt and distribute bagged
                  cement in the Caribbean. The Company also performs
                  earthmoving, excavating and filling operations, builds golf
                  courses, roads, and utility infrastructures, dredges waterways
                  and constructs deep-water piers and marinas in the Caribbean.

         (b)      Principles of Consolidation

                  These consolidated financial statements include the accounts
                  of Devcon International Corp. and its majority-owned
                  subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have
                  been eliminated in consolidation.

                  The Company's investments in unconsolidated joint ventures and
                  affiliates are accounted for under the equity and cost
                  methods. Under the equity method, original investments are
                  recorded at cost and then adjusted by the Company's share of
                  undistributed earnings or losses of these ventures. Other
                  investments in unconsolidated joint ventures in which the
                  Company owns less than 20 percent are accounted for by using
                  the cost method.

         (c)      Revenue Recognition

                  Materials Division

                  Revenue is recognized when the products are delivered,
                  invoiced at a fixed price and the collectibility is reasonably
                  assured.

                  Construction Division

                  The Company uses the percentage-of-completion method of
                  accounting for both financial statements and tax reports.
                  Revenue is recorded based on the Company's estimates of the
                  completion percentage of each project, based on the
                  cost-to-cost method. Anticipated contract losses, when
                  probable and estimable, are charged to income. Changes in
                  estimated contract profits are recorded in the period of
                  change. Selling, general and administrative expenses are not
                  allocated to contract costs. Monthly billings are based on the
                  percentage of work completed in accordance with each specific
                  contract. While some contracts extend longer, most are
                  completed within one year. Revenue is recognized under the
                  percentage-of-completion method when there is a contract for
                  the work, with a fixed price for the work performed or a fixed
                  price for a quantity of work delivered, and collectibility is
                  reasonably assured. Change-orders for additional contract
                  revenue are recognized if it is probable that they will result
                  in additional revenue and the amount can be reliably
                  estimated.

         (d)      Cash and Cash Equivalents

                  Cash and cash equivalents include cash, time deposits and
                  highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of
                  three months or less.

         (e)      Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

                  The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its
                  customers and maintains an allowance for potential credit
                  losses based on historical experience and other information
                  available to management.

         (f)      Notes Receivable

                  Notes receivable are recorded at cost, less the related
                  allowance for impaired notes receivable. Management,
                  considering current information and events regarding the
                  borrowers' ability to repay their obligations, considers a
                  note to be impaired when it is probable that the Company will
                  be unable to collect all amounts due according to the
                  contractual terms of the note agreement. When a loan is
                  considered to be impaired, the amount of the impairment is
                  measured based on the present value of expected future cash
                  flows discounted at the note's effective interest rate.
                  Impairment losses are included in the allowance for doubtful
                  accounts through a charge to bad debt expense.

         (g)      Inventories

                  Inventories are stated at the lower of average cost or market.

         (h)      Property, Plant and Equipment

                  Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation
                  is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated
                  useful life of each asset. Leasehold improvements are
                  amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of
                  the lease term or the estimated useful life of the asset.

                  Useful lives or lease terms for each asset type are summarized
                  below:

                      Buildings                                   15 - 40 years
                      Leasehold improvements                       3 - 35 years
                      Equipment                                    3 - 20 years
                      Furniture and fixtures                       3 - 10 years

                  During 2002, 2001 and 2000 the Company sold equipment and
                  property and recorded a resulting gain of $180,091, $70,678
                  and $153,561, respectively.

         (i) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be
             Disposed Of

                  In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for
                  the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS 144").
                  SFAS 144 provides a single accounting model for long-lived
                  assets to be disposed of. SFAS 144 also changes the criteria
                  for classifying an asset as held for sale; and broadens the
                  scope of businesses to be disposed of that qualify for
                  reporting as discontinued operations and changes the timing of
                  recognizing losses on such operations. The Company adopted
                  SFAS 144 on January 1, 2002. The adoption of SFAS 144 did not
                  affect the Company's financial position and results of
                  operation.

                  In accordance with SFAS 144, long-lived assets, such as
                  property, plant, and equipment, and purchased intangibles
                  subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever
                  events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
                  amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of
                  assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the
                  carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future
                  cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the
                  carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash
                  flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by
                  which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value
                  of the asset. Assets to be disposed of would be separately
                  presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of
                  the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are
                  no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a
                  disposed group classified as held for sale would be presented
                  separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of
                  the balance sheet.

                  An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the
                  carrying amount exceeds the asset's fair value. Prior to the
                  adoption of SFAS 144, the Company accounted for long-lived
                  assets in accordance with SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for
                  Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
                  be Disposed Of."

                  In accordance with its policy, the Company recorded charges
                  for impairment losses in the Materials division in 2002, 2001
                  and 2000 of approximately $16,000, $14,000 and $659,000,
                  respectively. The Construction division recorded charges for
                  impairment losses of $0, $17,000 and $43,000, in 2002, 2001
                  and 2000 respectively. These charges are included within
                  Selling, general and administrative expense in the
                  Consolidated Statement of Income.

                  Other assets, dredge equipment, asphalt plant, batch plant,
                  generators, and other assets, not in use in Puerto Rico, St.
                  Croix, St. Kitts and other islands were written down to net
                  realizable value with an impairment charge of $16,000 in 2002,
                  $31,000 in 2001 and $174,000 in 2000. In 2000, impairment of
                  goodwill in St. Martin of $378,000 was determined based on
                  future projected undiscounted cash flows compared to
                  remaining asset value as of the end of the period. There is
                  no remaining goodwill relating to the operations in St Martin.
                  In 1999, due to the planned closing of the Saba operations,
                  the asset values in Saba were reduced to estimated net
                  realizable value, by an impairment charge of $267,000. During
                  the actual closing of the plant, additional impairment of
                  $150,000 was recognized in 2000 due to an additional
                  write-down of inventories,

                                       43
<PAGE>
                  unforeseen additional dismantling costs and lower than
                  expected proceeds received upon the sale of the fixed assets.
                  There were no remaining assets in Saba as of December 31,
                  2000.

         (j)      Foreign Currency Translation

                  All balances denominated in foreign currencies are remeasured
                  at year-end rates to the respective functional currency of
                  each consolidating company.

                  For those subsidiaries, with a functional currency other than
                  the US dollar, assets and liabilities have been translated
                  into U.S. dollars at year-end exchange rates. Income statement
                  accounts are translated into U.S. dollars at average exchange
                  rates during the period. The translation adjustment increased
                  (decreased) equity by $904,399, $(478,880) and $(442,925) in
                  2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Gains or losses on foreign
                  currency transactions are reflected in the net income of the
                  period. The (expense) income recorded was ($122,215), $65,143,
                  and $55,368 in 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively.

                  The French subsidiary does not record a foreign exchange loss
                  or gain on long-term inter-company debt. This gain or loss is
                  deferred and combined with the translation adjustment of said
                  subsidiary. If and when the debt is paid, in part or whole,
                  the deferred loss or gain will be realized and will affect the
                  net respective result of the period.

          (k)     Income (Loss) Per Share

                  The Company computes income per share in accordance with the
                  provisions of SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share," which
                  establishes standards for computing and presenting basic and
                  diluted income per share. Basic income per share is computed
                  by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number
                  of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per
                  share is computed assuming the exercise of stock options and
                  the related income tax effects if not antidilutive. For loss
                  periods, common share equivalents are excluded from the
                  calculation, as their effect would be antidilutive. See Note 2
                  of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the
                  computation of basic and diluted number of shares.

          (l)     Income Taxes

                  Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability
                  method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for
                  the future tax consequences attributable to differences
                  between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing
                  assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and
                  operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax
                  assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates
                  expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which
                  those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
                  settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of
                  a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period

                  that includes the enactment date. The Company and certain of
                  its domestic subsidiaries file consolidated federal and state
                  income tax returns. Subsidiaries located in U.S. possessions
                  and foreign countries file individual income tax returns. U.S.
                  income taxes are not provided on undistributed earnings, which
                  are expected to be permanently reinvested by foreign
                  subsidiaries, unless the earnings can be repatriated in a
                  tax-free manner.

          (m)     Use of Estimates

                  Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and
                  assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and
                  liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and
                  liabilities to prepare these consolidated financial statements
                  in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
                  Actual results could differ from these estimates.

         (n)      Stock Option Plans

                  The Company applies the intrinsic value-based method of
                  accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board ("APB")
                  Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,"
                  and related interpretations, in accounting for its fixed plan
                  stock options. As such, compensation expense would be recorded
                  on the date of grant only if the current market price of the
                  underlying stock exceeded the exercise price. SFAS No. 123,
                  "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"),
                  established accounting and disclosure requirements using a
                  fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee
                  compensation plans. As allowed by SFAS 123, the Company has
                  elected to continue to apply the intrinsic value-based method
                  of accounting described above, and has adopted the disclosure
                  requirements of SFAS 148.

                  The per-share weighted-average fair value of stock options
                  granted during 2002, 2001 and 2000 was $2.70, $3.88, and
                  $3.08, respectively, on the grant date, using the Black
                  Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

                  The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for its
                  plan and, accordingly, stock compensation cost of $127,843 was
                  recognized in 2001 in the consolidated financial statements
                  for the extension of certain stock options. Had the Company
                  determined compensation costs based on fair value at the grant
                  date for our stock options under SFAS 123, the Company's
                  consolidated net income or loss would have been the pro forma
                  amounts below:

         Included in notes and other receivables are unsecured notes due from
         the Government of Antigua and Barbuda (the "Government") totaling a net
         amount of $6,787,286 and $7,249,375 in 2002 and 2001, respectively,
         approximately $525,000 of which is classified as a current receivable
         in 2002. These notes were originally executed in connection with a
         construction contract in 1987. During the following nine years, eight
         amendments to the agreement were executed, primarily due to additional
         work contracted. In 1987, the notes were placed on the cost recovery
         method, and all payments received from the Government from agreed upon
         sources were recorded as reduction of the principal balance of the
         notes. Payments from agreed upon sources were derived from lease
         proceeds from a rental of a United States military base, fuel tax
         revenues and proceeds from a real estate venture. The contractual
         outstanding balance of the notes, including the balance of prepayment
         of taxes and duties, was $30.0 million and $31.7 million as of December
         31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

         In April 2000, the Company executed the ninth amendment to the
         agreement with the Government and the notes were removed from the cost
         recovery method. The original notes receivable were consolidated into
         two new 15-year notes and the stated interest rate was reduced from 10
         percent to 6 percent annually. Payments from agreed upon sources were
         expanded to include an additional monthly payment of $61,400, starting

                                       47

         in August 2000, and up to $2.5 million in offsets against future duties
         and taxes to be incurred by the Company. In total, the agreement calls
         for $155,000 to be received monthly and $312,000 to be received
         quarterly, until maturity in 2015. Since April 28, 2000 the Company has
         been recognizing interest income on the notes under the accrual basis.
         The Company expects to receive principal payments against the book
         balance of $525,000, $666,000, $1,089,000, $1,761,000, and $2,846,000
         during each of the next 5 years, respectively.

         From time to time in the future the Company expects to incur taxes and
         duties in excess of the $2.5 million stipulated in the agreement. As a
         result, the contractual outstanding balance of the notes may be further
         reduced to pay these additional taxes and duties; and the notes may be
         paid off prior to the scheduled maturity. At the time of recording the
         actual duty or taxes incurred the Company will record the offsetting
         payment from the Government.

         Receipts on the notes were $3.4 million and $2.9 million, in 2002 and
         2001, respectively. Interest income recognized in 2002, 2001 and 2000
         was $2,932,749, $2,385,842, and $1,538,540, respectively. The Company
         records payments received, first to the projected principal reductions
         for the period, then to accrued interest, and lastly to additional
         reduction of principal. Interest income is recognized on the notes only
         to the extent payments are recorded for accrued interest. The
         Government was delayed in certain of its payments during the fourth
         quarter of 2002 and, consequently, the Company recorded $497,000 less
         in interest income compared to the average of the first three quarters
         of 2002. Subsequent to year-end the Company received payment for all
         past due amounts from 2002.

         Antigua-Barbuda Government Development Bonds 1994-1997 series amounting
         to $68,660 in 2002 and 2001, respectively, are included in the total
         due from the Government.

         The Company also has net trade receivables from various Government
         agencies of $281,396 and $31,331 in 2002 and 2001, respectively.

         Trade notes receivable - other consist of the following:

(5)      Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures and Affiliates

         At December 31, 2002 and 2001, the Company had investments in
         unconsolidated joint ventures and affiliates consisting of a 1.2
         percent equity interest in a real estate project in the Bahamas, see
         Note 12, a 33.3 percent interest in a real estate company in Puerto
         Rico and a 50 percent interest in a real estate project in South
         Florida. Equity earnings (loss) of $8,540, $28,733, and ($23,166) were
         recognized in 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively, on ventures accounted
         for under the equity method.

 (6)     Fair Value of Financial Instruments

         The carrying amount of financial instruments including cash, cash
         equivalents, most of the receivables - net, other current assets,
         accounts payable trade and other, accrued expenses and other
         liabilities, and notes payable to banks approximated fair value at
         December 31, 2002 because of the short maturity of these instruments.
         The carrying value of debt and most notes receivable approximated fair
         value at December 31, 2002 based upon the present value of estimated
         future cash flows. Given the nature of the notes and lack of comparable
         instruments, estimation of fair value of the notes due from the
         Government of Antigua and Barbuda is not practicable. The carrying
         amount of these notes as of December 31, 2002 was $6.8 million. The
         effective interest rate of the notes was 42 percent in 2002. The notes
         call for monthly and quarterly payments until maturity in 2015.

         In 2001, the Company entered into a revolving line of credit facility
         with a bank in the United States that provides for borrowings up to a
         maximum amount of $1,000,000, with interest charged at LIBOR plus 2.50
         percent. The facility is due on demand. The bank can demand repayment
         of the loan and cancellation of the line of credit facility, if certain
         financial or other covenants are in default. The Company also maintains
         lines of credit with local banks in St. Maarten and Antigua, $200,000
         and $185,000, respectively, for cash flow management purposes. The
         interest rates on these lines of credit are 11 percent and 12 percent,
         respectively. There were no amounts outstanding under these lines as of
         December 31, 2002 and 2001.

         The effective interest on all debt outstanding, excluding lines of
         credit, was 5.4 percent at December 31, 2002 and 8.5 percent at
         December 31, 2001. Outstanding debt is shown in the consolidated

         differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for
         financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax
         purposes, and (b) net operating loss carry-forwards.

         Significant portions of the deferred tax assets and liabilities results

         The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2002
         was $7.7 million or about 88.9 percent of the potential deferred tax
         benefit.

         In April 1988, the U.S. Virgin Islands Industrial Development
         Commission (IDC) granted one of the Company's subsidiaries a 10-year
         tax exemption expiring in April 1998. With some conditions and
         exceptions, the Company's operations related to (1) production and sale
         of ready-mix concrete; (2) production and sale of concrete block on St.
         Thomas and St. Johns and outside of the U.S. Virgin Islands; (3)
         production and sale of sand and aggregate; and (4) bagging of cement
         from imported bulk cement, are 100 percent exempt from U.S. Virgin
         Islands real property, gross receipts (currently 4 percent) and excise
         taxes, 90 percent exempt from U.S. Virgin Islands income taxes, and
         about 83 percent exempt from U.S. Virgin Islands customs duties. In
         1998, the Company was granted a five-year extension, through April
         2003, of the exemptions. No decision has been made as to whether or not
         we will seek an extension of this tax exemption, and there is no

                                       52
<PAGE>

         guarantee that, if sought, it will be granted. If the Company does not
         have the exemption, the taxes would be increased, however, some fees
         and scholarships that the Company is currently granting would not
         continue. The impact of not having the exemption is currently being
         reviewed.

         At December 31, 2002, approximately $35.8 million of foreign
         subsidiaries' earnings have not been distributed and no U.S. income
         taxes have been provided for with respect to them. These earnings are
         considered permanently reinvested in the subsidiaries' operations,
         unless the earnings can be repatriated in a tax-free manner, and when
         earned, did not require income tax recognition under U.S. laws. Should
         the foreign subsidiaries distribute these earnings to the parent
         company or provide access to these earnings, taxes of approximately
         $12.2 million at the U.S. federal tax rate of 34 percent, net of
         foreign tax credits, may be incurred. At December 31, 2002, the Company
         had accumulated net operating loss carry-forwards available to offset
         future taxable income in its Caribbean operations of about $21.2
         million, which expire at various times through the year 2009.

         During the fourth quarter 2001, the Company's three subsidiaries in
         Antigua were assessed $6.1 million in income taxes and withholding
         taxes for the years 1995 through 1999. The Company is appealing the
         assessments in the appropriate venues. The Company is owed a total of
         $30.0 million from the Government of Antigua and Barbuda; see further
         Note 3, of which $6.8 million is reflected as a receivable in the
         Company's financial statements. The difference between the gross
         balance and the reflected balance is the result of the notes receivable
         being on the cost recovery method from the notes inception through
         April 2000. In the event that the appeal is denied, the Company
         believes it has the right to offset any amounts owed to the Government
         against what is owed to the Company. Therefore, the Company believes
         that if any tax is accrued in the future, it will not have an immediate
         cash flow effect on the Company, but will result in an offset between
         tax owed and receivables outstanding. It is too early to predict the
         final outcome of the appeals process or to estimate the ultimate amount
         of loss, if any, to the Company. Based on the advice from local
         Antiguan tax consultants and local Antiguan counsel, management
         believes the Company's defenses to be meritorious and does not believe
         that the ultimate outcome will have a material adverse effect on the
         consolidated financial position or results of operations of the
         Company.

         Operating (loss) income is revenue less operating expenses. In
         computing operating (loss) income, the following items have not been
         added or deducted: interest expense, income tax expense, equity in
         earnings from unconsolidated joint ventures and affiliates, interest
         and other income, minority interest and gain or loss on sales of
         equipment. The note receivable from the Government of Antigua and
         Barbuda is included in total assets, other.
         Revenue by geographic area includes sales to unaffiliated customers
         based on customer location, not the selling entity's location. The
         Company moves its equipment from country to country; therefore, to make
         this disclosure meaningful the geographic area separation for assets is
         based on the location of the legal entity owning the assets. One
         customer, the owner of the project in the Bahamas, account for $8.4
         million of revenue reported in the Construction division segment.

(12)     Related Party Transactions

         The Company leases a 3.4-acre parcel of real property in Deerfield
         Beach, Florida from the Company's President, Mr. Donald L. Smith, Jr.,
         of which a smaller portion is actually utilized by the Company. Annual
         rent on the property was $95,400 in 2002, $49,303 in both 2001 and
         2000. The lease was renewed for five years from January 1, 2002 with an
         annual rent of $95,400. The new rent was based on comparable rental
         prices for the utilized portion for similar properties in Deerfield
         Beach.

         At December 31, 2002, the Company had a note payable of $2.1 million to
         Mr. Smith resulting from various advances made to the Company in
         previous years, to provide long-term financing to the Company and
         security for a payment-guarantee issued by the President on behalf of
         an entity in the Bahamas. The note is unsecured and bears interest at
         the prime rate. Presently, $300,000 dollars is due on demand and $1.8

                                       56

         million is due on July 1, 2004. Management believes that these terms
         are similar to what the Company would be able to achieve if it was to
         borrow this money from a bank. The board of directors has approved this
         transaction in the past. Mr. Smith has the option to make the note due
         on demand should a "Change of Control" occur. A Change of Control has
         occurred if a person or group acquires 15 percent or more of the common
         stock or announces a tender offer that, if successful, would result in
         ownership by a person or group of 15 percent or more of the common
         stock. See Note 7 of Consolidated Financial Statements.

         At December 31, 2002, the Company had an investment and advances
         totaling $186,000, representing a 1.2 percent interest in a real estate
         joint venture in the Bahamas in which a director, Mr. Robert A. Steele,
         and Mr. Smith participates with an equity interest of 1.0 and 11.3
         percent, respectively. The investment is carried at cost; accordingly
         no income or loss has been recorded from this investment. The Company
         has a $28.2 million contract with the venture to perform land
         preparation services. In connection with this contract, the Company
         recorded revenue of $8.4 million during 2002. The backlog on the
         contract as of December 31, 2002 was $3.0 million. As of December 31,
         2002 the Company had trade receivables from the venture of
         approximately $1.3 million and the cost and estimated earnings in
         excess of billings was $1.5 million. Mr. Smith has guaranteed the
         payment of the receivables from the entity, up to a maximum of $2.5
         million.

         The Company's joint venture subsidiary in Puerto Rico has transactions
         with the joint venture partners. A company controlled by one of the
         partners provides drilling and blasting services for the Company's
         quarry in Guaynabo. The price for the services is negotiated
         periodically, primarily by comparison to the cost of performing that
         work by the Company. In 2001, the subsidiary entered into a 36-month
         lease agreement for equipment located in the Aguadilla facility with
         another company controlled by this partner. The agreement also contains
         an option to buy the equipment. The price of the lease and the sales
         price of the equipment were negotiated between the parties at arm's
         length. There are no clear comparable prices in the market place, and
         no third party evaluation of the fairness of the transaction was
         completed. The subsidiary will recuperate its recorded book value of
         the assets, should the purchase option be exercised.

         The same subsidiary sells a significant portion of its products to a
         company controlled by another joint venture partner. In 2002, the
         Company's subsidiary's revenue from these sales was $3,452,000. This
         partner is controlled by one of the Company's directors; Jose A.
         Bechara, Jr. Esq. The price of the products is governed by firm supply
         agreements, renegotiated every other year. Comparable prices
         from other quarries are studied and used in the price negotiation.

         Other assets include amounts due from officers and employees as a
         result of payments made by the Company pursuant to a split-dollar life
         insurance plan. The Company's advances to pay premiums are secured by a
         pledge of the cash value of the issued policies. Amounts due to the
         Company under the split-dollar life insurance plan were $974,418 and
         $943,638 in 2002 and 2001, respectively. No payments were made since
         July 2002 on these policies and no commitments exist to make any
         further payments on the policies.

(13)     Stock Option Plans

         The Company adopted stock option plans for officers and employees in
         1986, 1992 and 1999. While each plan terminates 10 years after the
         adoption date, issued options have their own schedule of termination.
         Until 1996, 2002 and 2009, options to acquire up to 300,000, 350,000
         and 350,000 shares respectively, of common stock may be granted at no
         less than fair market value on the date of grant.

         All stock options granted pursuant to the 1986 Plan not already
         exercisable, vest and become fully exercisable (1) on the date the
         optionee reaches 65 years of age and for the six-month period
         thereafter or as otherwise modified by the Company's Board of
         Directors, (2) on the date of permanent disability of the Optionee and
         for the six-month period thereafter, (3) on the date of a change of
         control and for the six-month period thereafter, and (4) on the date of
         termination of the Optionee from employment by the Company without
         cause and for the six-month period after termination. Stock options
         granted under the 1992 and 1999 Plan vest and become exercisable in
         varying terms and periods set by the Compensation Committee of the
         Board of Directors. Options issued under the 1992 and 1999 Plan expire
         after 10 years.

         The Company adopted a stock-option plan for directors in 1992 that
         terminated in 2002. Options to acquire up to 50,000 shares of common
         stock were granted at no less than the fair-market value on the date of
         grant. The 1992 Directors' Plan provides each director an initial grant
         of 8,000 shares and additional grants of 1,000 shares annually
         immediately subsequent to their reelection as a director. Stock options
         granted under the Directors' Plan have 10-year terms, vest and become
         fully exercisable six months after the issue date. As the director's
         plan was fully granted in 2000, the directors have received their
         annual options since then from the employee plans.

          Stock option activity by year was as follows:

(16)     Commitments and Contingencies

         The Company has contingent obligations and has made guarantees in
         connection with acquisitions, joint ventures, employee and construction
         bonding and a tax exemption. As part of the 1995, subsequently
         renegotiated in 1999, acquisition of Societe des Carrieres de Grand
         Case ("SCGC"), a French company operating a ready-mix concrete plant
         and quarry in St. Martin, the Company agreed to pay the quarry owners,
         who were also the owners of SCGC, a royalty payment of $500,000 per
         year through July 2004 and rent of $50,000 per year through July 2005.
         The agreement may be renewed, at the Company's option, for a successive
         five-year period and would require annual payments of $500,000 and
         $50,000 per year, respectively. At the end of the 15-year royalty
         period, the Company has the option to purchase this 50-hectare property
         for $4.4 million.

         During the second quarter 2002, the Company issued a construction
         contract performance guarantee together with one of the Company's
         customers, Northshore Partners, Inc., ("Northshore"), in favor of
         Estate Plessen Associates L.P. and JPMorgan Chase Bank, for $5.1
         million. Northshore Partners is an important customer on St. Croix and
         the construction contract that Northshore Partners has with Estate
         Plessen Associate L.P. has requirements for the Company's construction
         materials. Although there is no assurance, management does not
         presently believe that this guarantee will have any material impact on
         the Company's liquidity or capital resources or any material negative
         impact on its financial position or results of operations. In the case
         that Northshore is unable to fulfill its commitments of the
         construction contract, the Company will be obligated to take
         Northshore's place and finish the contract. The Company is closely
         monitoring the progress of construction. The Company issued a letter of
         credit for $500,000 as collateral for the transaction and has not yet
         had any expenses in connection with this transaction. The construction
         project is estimated to be finished within two years and the guarantee
         expires two years after completion. The Company received an up front
         fee of $154,000, and has recognized a receivable for additional
         $52,000. At the same time, a long-term liability of the total amount
         has been recorded, which may be recognized to income, once it is
         determined that no liability exists for the project, less any amounts
         paid by the Company in connection with the performance guarantee.

         In June 2000, the Company entered into an amended Life Insurance and
         Salary Continuation Agreement with the Company President. The President
         shall receive a retirement benefit upon the sooner of his retirement
         from his position after March 31, 2003, or a change in control of the
         Company. Benefits to be received shall equal 75 percent of his base
         salary, and shall continue for the remainder of his life. In the event
         that a spouse survives him, then the surviving spouse shall receive a
         benefit equal to 100 percent of his base salary for the shorter of five
         years or the remainder of the surviving spouse's life. The Company will
         recognize the expense of the retirement agreement over his expected
         remaining period of active employment with the Company. The expense
         related to this agreement was $560,000 in 2002, $480,000 in 2001 and
         $220,000 in 2001. The accrued liability in connection with this
         agreement was $1.3 million as of December 31, 2002 and the Company
         estimates to accrue an additional $200,000 through March 2003. At that
         point the Company estimates that the total accrual will be sufficient
         to cover its obligations under the aforementioned agreement.

         During the fourth quarter 2001, the Company's three subsidiaries in
         Antigua were assessed $6.1 million in income taxes and withholding
         taxes for the years 1995 through 1999. The Company is appealing the
         assessments in the appropriate venues. The Company is owed a total of
         $30.0 million from the Government of Antigua and Barbuda; see  Note 3,
         of which $6.8 million is reflected as a receivable in the Company's
         financial statements. The difference between the gross balance and the
         reflected balance is the result of the notes receivable being on the
         cost recovery method from the notes inception through April 2000.
         In the event that the appeal is denied, the Company believes it has the
         right to offset any amounts owed to the Government against what is owed
         to the Company. Therefore, the Company believes that if any tax is
         accrued in the future, it will not have an immediate cash flow effect
         on the Company, but will result in an offset between tax owed and
         receivables outstanding. It is too early to predict the final outcome
         of the appeals process or to estimate the ultimate amount of loss, if
         any, to the Company. Based on the advice from local Antiguan tax
         consultants and local Antiguan counsel, management believes the
         Company's defenses to be meritorious and does not believe that the
         ultimate outcome will have a material adverse effect on the
         consolidated financial position or results of operations of the
         Company.

         In the fall of 2000, Virgin Islands Cement and Building Products, Inc.
         ("VICBP"), a subsidiary of the Company, was under contract with the
         Virgin Islands Port Authority ("VIPA") for the construction of the
         expansion of the St. Croix Airport. During the project, homeowners and
         residents of the Yellow Cedar Housing Community, located next to the
         end of the expansion project, claimed to have experienced several days
         of excessive dust in their area as a result of the ongoing construction
         work. The homeowners of Yellow Cedar have filed two separate lawsuits
         against VIPA and VICBP as co-defendants. One suit, filed in the U.S.
         District Court by Mariepaul Antoine, Benjamin Ashe, et. al, vs. VIPA
         et. al, case #2001,63 R/F, seeks equitable relief from nuisance,
         specific performance and damages. The second suit, Louisa Williams et.
         al vs. VIPA et. al filed in the Territorial Court of the U.S.V.I. case
         #548/2000 seeks equitable relief from nuisance, specific performance
         and damages. In both cases, VICBP as defendant has agreed to indemnify
         VIPA for any civil action created during the course of work. Reliance
         Insurance Company ("Reliance"), the general liability carrier for
         VICBP, has taken the legal position that "dust" is a pollutant and,

                                       61

<PAGE>

         therefore, the pollution exclusion clause applies and as a result
         denies liability insurance coverage to VICBP. Corporate counsel in
         Florida, as well as in the U.S. Virgin Islands, have advised the
         Company that laws now in place should enable the Company to enforce the
         duty to defend contained in the liability policy, thus affording the
         Company a defense of both legal actions. The Pennsylvania Insurance
         Commissioner placed Reliance in rehabilitation in October 2001, and
         subsequently into liquidation. The Company has also presented claims
         under the policy to the Florida Insurance Guaranty Association, the
         V.I. Insurance Guaranty Association, and to the Pennsylvania Insurance
         Commissioner. It is too early to predict the final outcome of this
         matter or to estimate the potential risk of loss, if any, to the
         Company.

         In the late 1980s, Bouwbedrijf Boven Winden, N.V. ("BBW"), currently a
         Devcon subsidiary in the Netherlands Antilles, supplied concrete to a
         large apartment complex on the French side of St. Maarten. In the early
         1990s the buildings began to develop exterior cracking and "pop outs."
         In November 1993, BBW was named one of several defendants including the
         building's insurer, in a suit filed by Syndicat des Coproprietaires la
         Residence Le Flamboyant (condominium owners association of Le
         Flamboyant), in the French court "Tribunal de Grande Instance de
         Paris", case No. 510082/93. A French court assigned an expert to
         examine the cause of the cracking and pop outs and to determine if the
         cracking/pop outs are caused by a phenomenon known as alkali reaction
         (ARS). The expert found, in his report dated December 3, 1998, that BBW
         was responsible for the ARS. The plaintiff is seeking unspecified
         damages, including demolition and replacement of the 272 apartments.
         Based on the advice of legal counsel, a judgment assessed in a French
         court would not be enforceable against a Netherlands Antilles company.
         Thus, in order to obtain an enforceable judgment, the plaintiff would
         have to file a successful claim in an Antillean court. It is too early
         to predict the final outcome of this matter or to estimate the
         potential risk of loss, if any, to the Company. Due to the lack of
         enforceability, the Company decided not to continue the defense in the
         French court. Therefore, the Company may not be aware of developments
         of the court proceedings. Management believes the Company's defenses to
         be meritorious and does not believe that the outcome will have a
         material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results
         of operations or cash flows of the Company.

         The Company sold substantially all of its interest in a real estate
         joint venture with the Government of Antigua and Barbuda to a third
         party in 1990. In connection with this sale, the purchaser assumed the
         Company's guarantee of payment to the Government of Antigua and Barbuda
         made upon the formation of the joint venture. This guarantee, which
         would become an obligation of the Company in the event of a default by
         the purchaser, provides that net profits from the joint venture's
         operations will equal or exceed $20,000 per month. No liability has
         been incurred by the Company nor have payments been made by the Company
         or the purchaser in connection with this guarantee. The guarantee
         expires upon the earlier of the sale or disposal by the venture of its
         real estate or September 2003. There are no current plans to sell or
         dispose of any of the venture's property.

         The Company is subject to federal, state and local environmental laws
         and regulations. Management believes that the Company is in compliance
         with these laws and regulations. Compliance with environmental
         protection laws has not had a material adverse impact on the Company's
         consolidated financial condition or results of operations and is not
         expected to have a material adverse impact in the foreseeable future.

         The Company is involved in other litigation and claims arising in the
         normal course of business. The Company believes that such litigation
         and claims will be resolved without a material adverse effect on the
         Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

(17)     Business and Credit Concentrations

         The Company's customers are concentrated in the Caribbean and are
         primarily involved in contracting. Credit risk may be affected by
         economic and political conditions in the countries where the Company
         operates. Potential concentrations of credit risk include receivables
         and costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings. One customer
         accounted for 15.7 percent of the Company's sales in 2002. No single
         customer accounted for more than 10 percent of the Company's sales
         in 2001 and 2000 and there are no receivables from a single customer
         that represent more than 10 percent of total receivables as of
         December 31, 2002 or 2001, other than the notes receivable from the
         Government of Antigua and Barbuda and the receivable from the
         construction project in the Bahamas. Although receivables are generally
         not collateralized, the Company may place liens or their equivalent in
         the event of nonpayment. The Company estimates an allowance for
         doubtful accounts based on the creditworthiness of customers as well as
         general economic conditions of the countries where it operates. An
         adverse change in these factors would affect the Company's estimate of
         bad debts.

         The Company has a construction project with a backlog of $3.3 million.
         A subsidiary, the Company's President and one of the Company's
         directors are minority partners of, and the Company's President is a
         member of the managing committee of, the entity developing the project.
         See further Note 12.

         The Company has separate union agreements with its employees on St.
         Thomas, St. Croix and Antigua. The agreement on St. Thomas expires
         March 2003, on St. Croix March 2006 and on Antigua November 2003. In
         the past, there have been no labor conflicts.

         Management believes that the Company's ability to produce its own sand
         and stone gives it a competitive advantage because of the substantial
         investment required to produce sand and stone, the difficulty in
         obtaining the necessary environmental permits to establish quarries,
         and the moratorium on mining beach sand imposed by most Caribbean
         countries. If the Company is unable to produce its own sand and stone,
         the consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash
         flows could be adversely affected.

         The Company's aggregate in the quarry in Guaynabo, Puerto Rico, will
         last an additional 2-4 years. The Company is searching for new quarry
         sites. If such sites cannot be secured, the Company may be forced to
         impair its quarry equipment.

(18)     Sale of Businesses

         In January 7, 2000, the Company closed a transaction to sell certain
         concrete related assets on St. Thomas, USVI and the subsidiary Devcon
         Masonry Products (BVI), Ltd., to a purchaser and the purchaser's
         related parties. The selling price was $6 million in cash, a note for
         $2.5 million payable over three years and 420,100 shares of Devcon
         International Corp. held by the buyer. The shares were valued at $2.4
         million at the day of closing. The book value of the assets sold,
         including certain expenses and deferred gain due to a $1 million
         contingency accrual, was $8.7 million. Therefore, the Company realized
         in the first quarter of 2000 a gain on this transaction before tax of
         $2.2 million. During 2001 the contingency was resolved and the
         outstanding note was reduced by $1.0 million and the remaining note was
         fully paid during 2001.

         On February 3, 2000, the Company closed a transaction to sell real
         property in St. Croix. The selling price was $2.3 million in cash, and
         the book value of the property was $1.9 million. As a result, the
         Company realized a gain on the transaction of approximately $336,000
         before taxes.

         On February 22, 2000, the Company closed a transaction to sell certain
         bulk cement terminal assets on four of the islands in the Caribbean.
         The purchasers were Union Maritima International (UMAR) and some of its
         affiliated companies. The selling price was $19.6 million in cash. The
         book value of the assets, including certain expenses and contingency
         accruals, was $3.8 million, resulting in a gain on the transaction of
         $15.8 million before taxes. The Company simultaneously entered into an
         agreement to manage the terminals for one year. This management
         agreement was amended and renewed on March 1, 2001 and 2002,
         respectively, for an additional year, with a 90-day termination option
         for both parties. The Company also entered into a supply agreement to
         buy cement from the terminals for five years for its own use in the
         Company's batch and block plants. The agreement has stipulations so
         that the Company will be able to enjoy the best price available in the
         local market from any cement supplier. The Company sold cement to third
         parties in 1999 and entered into a one-year contract to distribute
         cement on these four islands. This distribution agreement was
         terminated on March 1, 2001. The Company has continued to distribute
         cement on a non-exclusive basis on some of the islands for the buyers.

         On March 16, 2000, the Company closed on a related transaction to sell
         its subsidiary in Dominica to an affiliated company of UMAR. The
         selling price was $4.1 million plus an earn-out of 50 percent of the
         profits or losses of a portion of the Company's operations. The book
         value of the assets, including certain expenses and contingency
         accruals, was $3.0 million. The gain of $1.0 million on the transaction
         was deferred to the first quarter of 2002, when the earn-out period
         finished.

         The Company has used the proceeds from these transactions to pay off
         most of its equipment financing debt, bank debt and other debt. The

         follows:

         Within the 90 days prior to the date of this Annual Report, the Company

         participation of the Company's management, including the Company's
         Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (its principal

         the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's
         disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules
         13a-14. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive
