4.   EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share are based upon the weighted average shares outstanding and
the Company does not have any dilutive securities.

5.   INTEREST RATE SWAP AGREEMENT

In connection with the extension of its term loan, on January 13, 2003 the
Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement effectively fixing the
underlying LIBOR rate at 3.78% and the all-in interest rate at 5.53% per annum
on the $7,276,100 term loan through October 1, 2007.

As of March 31, 2003, an unrealized loss of $271,556 represented the fair value
of the aforementioned derivative and was reflected in accumulated other
comprehensive loss and other liabilities in the accompanying balance sheet at
March 31, 2003.

                                AND SUBSIDIARIES
         NOTES TO CONDENSED UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                    CONTINUED


The fair value of this instrument is based upon the estimated amount the Company
would receive or pay to terminate the contract as of March 31, 2003 and is
determined using interest rate market pricing models.

The Company's interest rate swap agreement is designated as a cash flow hedge
and hedges the future cash outflows on the term loan. Interest rate swaps that
convert variable payments to fixed payments, interest rate caps, floors and
collars are cash flow hedges. The unrealized gains and losses in the fair value
of these hedges are reported on the balance sheet with a corresponding
adjustment to either accumulated other comprehensive income or earnings
depending on the type of hedging relationship. For cash flow hedges, offsetting
gains and losses are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income. Over
time, the unrealized gains and losses held in accumulated other comprehensive
income will be reclassified to earnings. This reclassification occurs over the
same time period in which the hedged items affect earnings.

6.   COMPREHENSIVE LOSS

Comprehensive loss for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 totaled $2,633,054
and was comprised of net loss of $2,361,498 and other comprehensive loss related
to the changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument of $271,556. For
the year ended June 30, 2002, the Company had no items of other comprehensive
income or loss requiring additional disclosure.

8.   PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

In July 2002, the Company ceased clamming activities on certain underwater land
in Long Island, New York. On December 19, 2002, the Company donated
approximately 12,000 acres of underwater land to the Nature Conservancy, Inc., a
non-profit corporation. The Company's $457,335 basis in the underwater beds was
recorded as an expense in selling, general and administrative expenses.

9.   SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On April 6, 2003 the Company entered into an agreement to sell its property
located in Allendale, South Carolina for $200,000, net of all closing costs.

Results of operations are shown in Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


Working capital for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 decreased by
approximately $5,006 to $11,128. Net cash used in operating activities was
approximately $2,725. Net cash provided by financing activities was
approximately $5,278. Net cash of approximately $3,595 was used in investing
activities.

On October 31, 2002 the Company paid approximately $960 for a parcel of land
adjacent to our Greensboro South Shopping Center. This parcel, combined with
approximately 3/4 of an acre of land from our shopping Center, was net leased
for a minimum of 25 years to a developer at an annual rent of $127. The
developer in turn has a long term lease with a major drug store chain.

On November 14, 2002 the Company made a final payment of $1,175 for a total
investment of $1,500 in a joint venture that is building a store for a major
supermarket chain in Worcester, Massachusetts. The Company has also guaranteed a
$8,450 construction loan obtained by the joint venture and is entitled to
receive a minimum quarterly distribution of a 12% per annum preferential return
on its investment, payable quarterly when the tenant begins to pay rent.

The Company borrowed $3,500 from an entity controlled by a major stockholder to
finance the importation and sale of lobster tails ($1,000 was repaid on April
23, 2003). The loan bears interest at prime +1% and has no fixed repayment terms
or maturity dates.

The Company's credit agreement with its principal lender provided 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%. These loans are also collateralized
by a mortgage on the East Newark Industrial Center. The term loan requires
amortization payments of $359 per annum. Both loans matured on October 21, 2002
and were extended to January 13, 2003 when the Company and its lender further
extended the term loan until October 21, 2007 with the same amortization
schedule and interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.75%. At the same time, the Company
entered into an interest rate swap agreement which fixed the all-in interest
rate on the term loan at 5.53% per annum. The revolving line of credit of $3,000
was extended until October 21, 2005 with the same interest rate options as the
old loan. At March 31, 2003 the term loan balance was $7,216 and $2,750 was
outstanding under the revolving line of credit which bore interest at 3.375% at
March 31, 2003.

</TABLE>


REAL ESTATE

     Revenues decreased $179 and earnings decreased $656 due to the lower
revenues and increased snow removal costs of $204 and utility costs of $289 as a
result of the harsh winter and numerous snowstorms.

HOTEL

     Revenues increased $245 over last year. Hotel earnings increased $112 as a
result of the higher revenues.

SEAFOOD

     Revenues decreased $6,342 in the current period. Losses continued in the
seafood division due primarily to costs associated with the cessation of
clamming activities at certain underwater land in Long Island, New York in July
2002, continuing losses in Ecuador due to lower than anticipated shrimp
production, and losses at our Florida operation caused by a lack of domestic
scallops. Losses in Ecuador were $2,179 this year as compared to last years loss
of $2,498 due principally to the continuation of the White Spot Virus in Ecuador
that has decimated that country's shrimp production. Scallop operations in
Florida lost $243 as compared to a loss last year of $988. Bluepoints domestic
operations had a loss of $858 as compared to a loss of $343 last year. Losses
increased in our domestic operations as a result of the costs associated with
the cessation of clamming on certain underwater land in Long Island, New York in
July 2002, and the donation of our underwater clam beds ($457 basis) to the
Nature Conservancy Inc., a non-profit corporation in December 2002.

TEXTILES

     Hanora Spinning's earnings decreased $109 to $355. Hanora South and J & M
Dyers recognized a combined loss of $230 compared to last years loss of $543 due
to costs incurred last year in closing down our yarn spinning plant in Lake
City, South Carolina in September 2001. Losses were reduced as a result of the
closing and subsequent sale of the Hanora South plant last year. Whitlock
Combing incurred a loss of $372 (including an additional writedown of its
building by $300) in the current period 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 $1,272.

CORPORATE/OTHER

     Corporate expenses, including interest on the Company's term loan and
revolving line of credit, increased by $283 due substantially to a reduction in
miscellaneous income received last year.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations is based upon the Company's consolidated financial statements, which
have been prepared in accordance with accounting principals generally accepted
in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires
management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of
assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. The Company bases its estimates on
historical experience and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under
the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments
about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent
from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under
different assumptions or conditions. The Company believes the following critical
accounting policies affect its significant judgments and estimates used in the
preparation of its consolidated financial statements.


VALUATION OF PROPERTY HELD FOR USE AND SALE

On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews the carrying value of both properties
held for use and for sale. The Company records impairment losses and reduces the
carrying value of properties when indicators of impairment are present and the
expected undiscounted cash flows related to those properties are less than their
carrying amounts. In cases where the Company reduces its carrying cost to fair
value, and for properties held for sale, the Company reduces its carrying value
to fair value less costs to sell. During the current quarter in connection with
the contract to sell property located in South Carolina, the Company recognized
an impairment loss of $300,000 to write the value down to its net realizable
value, less costs to sell. Management does not believe that the value of its
remaining properties are impaired as of March 31, 2003.


VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS IN AND ADVANCES TO AFFILIATED ENTITIES

On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews the carrying value of the investments
in and advances to affiliated entities. Although the seafood operations of the
Company (particularly the Ecuadorian seafood operations) continue to generate
operating losses management believes that the investments that it is currently
making will return the operations to profitability. If the Company is
unsuccessful in its efforts, an impairment write-down, which may be material,
will be required. Management does not believe that the carrying amount of the
investments in and advances to affiliated entities are impaired as of March 31,
2003.
