Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working capital for the nine months ended March 31, 1998 decreased by
approximately $126. Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately
$1,693. Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $3,142. Net
cash of approximately $5,272 was used for investing activities.

The Company had a $10,000 term loan and a $2,000 revolving line of credit with
its principal lender, collateralized by a mortgage on the East Newark Industrial
Center. At September 30, 1997, $2,000 was outstanding under the line of credit.
On October 21, 1997 the $2,000 was repaid. The term Loan, which had an
outstanding balance of $6,611 at September 30, 1997, required monthly principal
payments of $56 and matured on October 21, 1997 when the remaining unpaid
principal balance of $6,555 was paid. On October 21,1997 the Company replaced
its existing indebtedness and entered into a loan agreement with a new lender.
The new agreement provides for a $9,000 term loan with an interest rate at the
Company's option equal to either (a) LIBOR plus 1.75%, (b) the Alternate Base
Rate (as defined) plus 0.25% or (c) the Fixed Rate (as defined) plus 1.75% 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. The term loan matures in
five years and the revolving line of credit matures in three years. At March 31,
1998 the term loan balance was $8,880 with interest at 7.65%, and $2,000 was
outstanding on the revolving line of credit with interest at 7.625%. The Company
exercised the fixed rate option which will be effective April 24,1998, and the
new rate of interest at that date will be 7.5%.

On November 25,1997 the Company and its partners sold the two nursing homes
owned by them in Jersey City and Rochelle Park, New Jersey and the senior
citizen residence/adult day care center adjacent to the Rochelle Park facility.
The anticipated proceeds to the Company of approximately $5 million (of which
$4,325 has been received as of March 31, 1998) approximate the net carrying
value of these assets. The Company's 50% in a third nursing home owned by the
Company and its partners was sold by the Company in May 1998 for the sum of
$1,750, all cash.

The Company re-financed its mortgage on the Brookhaven Shopping Center with its
existing lender on December 22, 1997. The Mortgage which had an outstanding
balance of approximately $1,500 was re-financed for $2,500 with interest at
7.8%, and calls for monthly payments of $21 and matures in December 2007 when a
balloon payment of $1,713 is due.

in any expense category.

accounted for last year on the equity method. Losses are continuing in the
seafood division due primarily to curtailed production at our clam operation
which had a loss of $773 this year as compared to last year's loss of $594, lack
of scallops at Lambert which had a loss of $602 this year as compared to last
year's of $200, and losses in Ecuador during the first six months of the year
due to lower than anticipated shrimp production. Losses in Ecuador were $630
this year as compared to last year's loss of $1,061.
