4. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Statement No. 128 issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board in February
1997 has no impact on the earnings per share calculation of the Company due to
the fact that the Company does not have dilutive securities.

                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                 (IN THOUSANDS)

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working capital for the nine months ended March 31, 1999 decreased by
approximately $2,225. Net cash used by operating activities was approximately
$2,354. Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $6,407. Net
cash of approximately $11,205 was used for investing activities.

On November 17, 1998 the Company purchased for cash the Shipps Corner Shopping
Center in Virginia Beach, Virginia for approximately $3,425. The Company is
presently in negotiations to obtain a mortgage for this property. The Company's
modernization and renovation at its Syracuse hotel property was completed in
February 1999. For the nine months ended March 31, 1999 the Company incurred
expenditures at the hotel of approximately $3,534.

On August 31, 1998, the Company obtained a $4,000 construction loan from a bank
for its property at 260 Merrimac Street in Newburyport, Massachusetts.
Initially, $2,685 was borrowed, with $1,315 available to be borrowed when
additional space is rented. The construction loan is for one year plus a one
year extension option. The loan can be converted to a five year term loan upon
completion of construction and the leasing of 75% of the rentable space in the
building. Interest on the construction loan is at the bank's prime rate from
time to time, or at LIBOR plus 1.75% (at LIBOR plus 1.6% when the building is
70% rented) for one to twelve month periods, as elected by the Company. The
Company will have the option to elect a fixed rate of interest during the term
loan period.

On September 3, 1998, the Company refinanced a mortgage on its London Bridge
Shopping Center in Virginia Beach, Virginia with a new lender and paid off the
old mortgage of approximately $2,520. The new $3,000 self-liquidating mortgage
calls for monthly payments of $24 including principal and interest, bears
interest at 7.25% and matures in October 2018. The old mortgage had monthly
payments of $24, bore interest at 9.5% and matured May 1, 2002.

The Company closed a loan with the Overseas Private Investment Corporation in
December 1998 for $5,600. The loan bears interest at 7.3% per annum and provides
for 15 semi-annual payments of principal and interest. After the repayment of
$2,800 of loans in Ecuador with interest ranging from 13% to 51%, the repayment
of approximately $1,400 to the Company and $1,000 held in escrow reserve
accounts, $400 remained for working capital needs for the Ecuadorian shrimp
operations.

The Company's credit agreement with its principal lender provides for a $9,000
term loan with an interest rate of 7.5% per annum and a $3,000 revolving line of
credit with an interest rate equal to either (a) LIBOR plus 2% or, (b) the
Alternate Base Rate (as defined) plus 0.50%.


                                       6

These loans are also collateralized by a mortgage on the East Newark Industrial
Center. The term loan requires amortization payments of $359 per annum. The term
loan matures in five years and the revolving line of credit matures in three
years. At March 31, 1999 the term loan balance was $8,522 and $2,500 was
outstanding under the revolving line of credit.

Management anticipates that cash generated from operations and the amount
available under the term loan and revolving fine of credit will provide the
necessary funds on a short and long-term basis to cover operating expenses,
interest expense on outstanding indebtedness and recurring and non-recurring
capital expenditures. The Company does not have any material commitments for
capital expenditures and tenant improvements.

Results of Operations

      Nine months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998

Income from operations before income taxes and minority interests decreased
$634. The components are as follows:

                                                                      (Decrease)

REAL ESTATE

      Revenues decreased $1,782 and earnings decreased $384. This was due to the
sale of the Video Film Center in the last fiscal year, which had revenues of
$2,917 and earnings of $753 for the nine months last year. Operating profits and
revenues increased at substantially all of the other properties. There were no
significant variations in any expense category.

HOTEL

      Revenues decreased $499 over last year due to renovations that were
conducted at the hotel. Hotel earnings decreased $192 as a result of the lower
revenues.

SEAFOOD

      Revenues increased $3,910 in the current period. Losses are continuing in
the seafood division due primarily to curtailed production at the Company's clam
operations, and continuing losses in Ecuador due to lower than anticipated
shrimp production. Losses in Ecuador were $980 this year as compared to last
year's loss of $630 due principally to continuing problems at our shrimp
hatchery caused by colder water temperatures and the transition from the weather
phenomenon known as "El Nino". Scallop operations in Florida lost $131 as
compared to a loss last year of $602 due to increased revenues. Revenues
increased $2,178 at our scallop operation and $4,130 at Bluepoints substantially
due to the sale of a new product imported lobster tails. There was a reduction
of revenues of $2,398 in Ecuador due to a reduction of sales of shrimp purchased
from third parties. Losses were reduced in our Bluepoints clam operation by $370
and we earned $204 in a new division that imports lobster tails.

TEXTILES

      Hanora Spinning's earnings decreased $296 to $380 for the nine months due
to lower revenues. Hanora South and J & M Dyers recognized a combined loss of
$464 compared to last year's loss of $79 due to lower revenues at J & M this
year. Whitlock Combing incurred a loss of $116 in the current year as compared
to a loss of $99 last year relating to its property in South Carolina which is
being offered for sale. Overall, textile revenues decreased $3,269.

CORPORATE/OTHER

      Corporate expenses including interest on the Company's term loan and
revolving line of credit increased by $55.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

      The Company has completed an assessment and has been advised by its
independent computer software provider that its accounting systems and programs
will be year 2000 compliant and that year 2000 compliant shall mean that neither
performance nor functionality will be affected by dates prior to, during and
after the year 2000. The total year 2000 cost is approximately $40 which is
being expensed as incurred and is expected to be completed by June 1999. The
Company believes that, with modifications to existing software and conversions
to new software, the Year 2000 Issue will not pose significant operational
problems for its computer systems. However, if such modifications and
conversions are not made, or are not completed in a timely fashion, the Year
2000 Issue could have a material impact on the operations of the Company.

      The Company has queried its significant suppliers, subcontractors and
service providers that do not share information systems with the Company
(external agents). To date, the Company is not aware of any external agent with
a Year 2000 issue that would materially impact the Company's results of
operations, liquidity, or capital resources. However, the Company has no means
of ensuring that external agents will be Year 2000 ready. The inability of
external agents to complete their Year 2000 resolution process in a timely
fashion could materially impact the Company. The effect of non-compliance by
external agents is not determinable.
