PART I


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 bulk and 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                       United States Territory
         St. Thomas                        United States Virgin Islands
         St. Croix                         United States Virgin Islands
         Tortola                           British Virgin Islands
         Saba                              Netherlands Antilles
         St. Maarten                       Netherlands Antilles
         St. Martin                        French West Indies
         Antigua                           West Indies
         Dominica                          West Indies

Our contracting 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 contracting, and our
equipment is well-suited for the Caribbean markets. We have equipment and
personnel in the Caribbean that, we believe, often allows us to start work more
quickly and less expensively than other contractors. While we can bid
competitively and complete cost-effectively these land development contracts,
our ability to mobilize quickly can sometimes cause us to incur higher expense.

The following table sets forth financial highlights of our concrete and related
products, contracting and other business:

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

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

We expanded our operations in the Caribbean by opening a second quarry in Puerto
Rico in December 1998. Minority investors own 49.9 percent of this separate
company. From time to time, we investigate opportunities to expand our
operations to areas of the Caribbean where we presently have no business. Such
expansion may take place through joint ventures, acquisitions or other business
arrangements.

RISKS OF FOREIGN OPERATIONS

Portions of our operation are conducted in Caribbean foreign countries,
primarily Antigua, St. Maarten, St. Martin, Dominica, Saba, St. Kitts, and
Tortola. In 1998, 52.0 percent of our revenue was derived from foreign
operations. Overseas contract work performed by the parent U.S. corporation is
not considered foreign-source revenue for this calculation. For a summary of our
revenues and earnings from foreign operations, see Note 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 territories use the U.S. dollar as currency. The
Company is also subject to U.S. federal income tax upon the distribution of
certain offshore earnings. See Note 9 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.

CONCRETE AND RELATED PRODUCTS

GENERAL We manufacture and distribute ready-mix concrete, block and crushed
aggregate. We also distribute bulk and bagged cement. The different activities
on the islands are shown below:

Our concrete and related products business employs assets such as:

  /bullet/  Quarries                     /bullet/ Concrete Batch Plants
  /bullet/  Rock Crushing Plants         /bullet/ Fleet of Concrete Mixer Trucks
  /bullet/  Bulk Cement Terminals        /bullet/ Concrete Block Plants
  /bullet/  Cement Bagging Facilities    /bullet/ Asphalt Plants

We also lease a bulk cement ship to give us access to reliable, economical
sources of cement. We have become the largest supplier of concrete and related
products in the U.S. Virgin Islands, Antigua, St. Maarten, St. Martin, Dominica,
Saba and Tortola.

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 deliver 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.

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 six Caribbean islands. It is often less expensive to manufacture
crushed rock at our quarries than to import aggregate from off-island sources.

BULK AND BAGGED CEMENT We lease a bulk cement ship with a 6,000 metric-ton
capacity. The ship delivers cement in bulk to our cement terminals. From silos
at these terminals, the cement is transferred for use in our concrete batch
plants, sold in bulk or bagged and then sold. Bulk cement is readily available
from a number of manufacturers located throughout the Caribbean basin. The ship
assures us of reliable and relatively economical sources of 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. Our
ability to produce our own sand gives us a competitive advantage because of the
substantial investment required to produce sand, the difficulty in obtaining the
necessary environmental permits to establish quarries and the moratorium on
mining beach sand imposed by most Caribbean countries. The sand that we produce
is sometimes blended with sand obtained from offshore sources unaffiliated with
the Company. The bulk cement ship allows us to satisfy our cement requirements.

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 and bulk cement to the customers' job sites.

COMPETITION We have some competitors in the concrete and related products
business in the locations where we conduct business. We encounter competition
from the producers of asphalt, which is an alternative material to concrete for
road construction. We believe our concrete and related products market share,
resources, facilities, local presence and cost structure give us a competitive
advantage in the eastern Caribbean markets where we operate.

LAND DEVELOPMENT CONTRACTING

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. We pursue the most profitable land development contracts
available in the Caribbean, rather than attempting to maintain a high volume.

The revenue related to the work performed by our contracting 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 a 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. Project proposals
and bids are reviewed by our Vice President of Construction Operations and/or
our President. After a customer accepts our proposal, a formal contract is
negotiated. We are normally the prime contractor. We assign a project manager
and one of our seven 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 land development contracts at
December 31, 1998 was $16.3 million involving 10 projects. One project's backlog
amounts to $11.9 million. A subsidiary and two of our directors are minority
partners, and our President is Chairman, of the entity developing this project.
This partnership does not yet have the necessary financing to complete the
development of the project, therefore the amount of the backlog could
substantially diminish and the timing of completion could vary. This compares to
$4.4 million involving 12 projects at December 31, 1997. Since December 31, 1998
we have entered into new land development contracts in the Caribbean amounting
to $470,000. We expect most of the current backlog will be completed during
1999.

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 bond
all contracts that so required.

COMPETITION Land development contracting is extremely competitive. 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. We believe that we compete effectively and have a favorable
competitive position in our Caribbean markets.

OTHER OPERATIONS

MARINA Two of our subsidiaries owned a Virgin Islands general partnership formed
in 1988 to construct and operate a marina on a 4.92 acre parcel of land leased
from the U.S. Virgin Islands government. The marina was sold for $3.3 million on
February 3, 1998 and we recognized a loss of $108,000 in 1997.

TAX EXEMPTIONS AND BENEFITS

Most of our offshore earnings are taxed at rates lower than U.S. statutory
federal income tax rates due to tax exemptions and lower prevailing tax rates
offshore. The U.S. Virgin Islands Industrial Development Commission granted us
tax exemptions on most of our U.S. Virgin Islands earnings through 2003. The
Antigua and Barbuda tax exemption expired in 1996.

U.S. tax laws provide that our offshore earnings are not taxable for U.S.
federal income tax purposes and most post-April 1988 concrete and related
products earnings in the U.S. Virgin Islands can be distributed to us free of
U.S. income tax. Any distribution to our United States operations of: (1)
earnings from our U.S. Virgin Islands operations accumulated prior to April 1,
1988; or (2) earnings from our Antigua, St. Martin, St. Maarten, Dominica, Saba,
St. Kitts, and Tortola operations, would subject us to U.S. federal income tax
on the amounts distributed, less applicable taxes paid in those jurisdictions.
At December 31, 1998, $39.0 million of accumulated earnings had not been
distributed to our U.S. operations. We have not provided for federal income tax
on the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries because we intend to
permanently reinvest those earnings offshore.

Our tax exemption and our ability to receive most of the current earnings from
our U.S. Virgin Islands operations without subjecting us to U.S. income taxes
reduces our income tax expense. For further information on our tax exemptions
and income taxes, see Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

EQUIPMENT

Both of our businesses require us to lease or purchase and maintain equipment.
As of December 31, 1998, our equipment included cranes, bulldozers, road
graders, rollers, backhoes, earthmovers, hydraulic dredges, barges, rock
crushers, bulk cement handling equipment and 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. See Notes 8 and 12 of
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

MISCELLANEOUS INVESTMENTS AND JOINT VENTURES

We have invested or participated in several joint ventures in connection with
our land development contracting and concrete and related products division.

During 1997 and 1998 we invested $154,000 for a 2 percent interest in a real
estate joint venture in the Bahamas. The upscale resort project awaits final
financing to finish its development. We started the land development for the
site in 1998. Two of our directors have an interest in the joint venture. See
Note 14 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

During 1998 we invested $122,000 for a 33 percent interest in a real estate
company in Puerto Rico that owns the land where the Aguadilla quarry operates.
During 1998 we recognized an expense of $39,000 using the equity method of
accounting.

                                       6

<PAGE>

For several years, we held ownership interests in two development projects in
Antigua. We initially received these interests as partial payment for
construction work done for the Government of Antigua. During 1998 we sold our
remaining interest in one of these projects, the Corbkinnon Property, for
$625,000 and recorded a $278,000 gain on this sale. For additional information,
see Notes 5 and 11 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company owns 43 percent of a corporation formed to construct condominium
housing units in Antigua. We invested $200,000 in the corporation and recorded
losses of $150,000 and $50,000 in 1997 and 1996, respectively. For additional
information, see Note 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

ITEM 3.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

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

The Company believed it was entitled to additional compensation on a Florida
construction project and we pursued a claim legally. In February 1999 a verdict
was issued, giving us no additional compensation except for the retainage. Due
to this judgment we took a charge for litigation of $1.5 million in 1998. We may
decide to appeal the judgment.

In 1992, Fore Golf, Inc. sued us in the Ninth Judicial Circuit, Orange County,
Florida, Case No. CI-92-5289. We were sued by Fore Golf, Inc. for work which
this subcontractor allegedly performed in 1990 and 1991 during construction of
two golf courses at Disney World in Orlando, Florida, the alleged unpaid
contract balance in connection with this project, and inefficiency costs. In
June 1997, the court issued an order establishing liability and damages against
us. The Court entered a final judgment in favor of the plaintiff for damages and
prejudgment interest. Subsequently, the trial court also awarded the plaintiff
attorneys' fees. The Company accrued a total of $4.5 million, included in other
liabilities, in 1997 to reflect the total estimated costs to be incurred should
we not be successful in our post trial and appeal efforts. We have posted a bond
for the damages, prejudgment interest and plaintiff's attorneys' fees. This bond
is personally guaranteed by the Company's President. We settled our lawsuit with
Fore Golf, Inc. and its creditors in March 1999. The settlement calls for a cash
payment of approximately $300,000 and payments of $460,000 over a period of 4
years. We have not yet settled with the lawyers of Fore Golf regarding the
judgment on attorney' fees. The trial court fee award has been contested by Fore
Golf's attorneys. As the result of this settlement, we decreased the provision
for litigation by $2.0 million. For further information, see Note 18 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.

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 1990's the buildings
began to develop exterior cracking and "popouts." 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 popouts and to determine if the
cracking/popouts are caused by a phenomenon known as alkali reaction (ARS). The
expert found in his report, dated December 3, 1998, BBW 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, the plaintiff would have to file the same
claim in an Antillean court. It is too early to predict the final outcome of
this matter. 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.

We are subject to federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations.
Management believes that we are 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.

ITEM 4.    SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

No matters were submitted to a vote of our security holders during the fourth
quarter of 1998.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Dollar amounts of $1.0 million or more are rounded to the nearest one tenth of a
million; all other dollar amounts are rounded to the nearest one thousand and
all percentages are stated to the nearest one tenth of one percent.

This Form 10-K contains certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning
of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
Act"), which represent the Company's expectations and beliefs. These statements
involve risks and uncertainties that are beyond our control, and actual results
may differ materially depending on many factors, including the financial
condition of our customers, changes in domestic and foreign economic and
political conditions, demand for our services, and changes in our competitive
environment.

These and other factors could cause actual results or outcomes to differ
materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements. Any
forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date it is made. We undertake no
obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or
circumstances after the date it is made. It is not possible for management to
predict unanticipated factors or the effect they might have on our business.

COMPARISON OF YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 WITH YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997

REVENUE

Our revenue was $66.2 million in 1998 and $64.2 million in 1997. This 3.0
percent increase reflects an increase in contracting revenue, partially offset
by sales decreases in other and in our concrete and related products revenue.

Our concrete and related products revenue decreased 2.0 percent to $50.4 million
in 1998 from $51.5 million in 1997. This decrease was primarily due to decreased
demand for this division's products on certain Caribbean islands, partially
offset by increased demand on other Caribbean islands. At this time, we cannot
predict concrete and related products revenue levels in 1999.

Revenue from our contracting division increased 55.9 percent to $15.4 million in
1998 from $9.9 million in 1997. This increase resulted from starting and
finishing some medium sized contracts and starting a $15.3 million contract in
Exuma, Bahamas. Our backlog of unfilled portions of land development contracts
at December 31, 1998 was $16.3 million involving 10 projects, as compared to
$4.4 million involving 12 projects at December 31, 1997. Since December 31, 1998
we have entered into new contracts in the Caribbean amounting to $470,000. We
expect that most of the current backlog will be completed during 1999.

COST OF CONCRETE AND RELATED PRODUCTS

Cost of concrete and related products rose slightly to 81.8 percent of division
revenue in 1998 from 80.9 percent in 1997. The cost increase was due to lower
sales, higher production costs, and a less-favorable mix of products.

                                       12

<PAGE>

COST OF CONTRACTING

Cost of contracting decreased to 84.0 percent of contracting revenue in 1998
from 98.6 percent in 1997. Lower costs as a percent of revenue were due to
improved profitability on 1998 contracts and on losses we took on a contract in
1997. 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 15.0
percent to $11.3 million in 1998 from $13.3 million in 1997. This decrease is
primarily due to cost reductions in the St. Martin companies and reduced legal
expense. Also, by not operating the marina, SG&A expenses were reduced by
$176,000. SG&A expense as a percentage of revenue decreased to 17.1 percent in
1998 from 20.8 percent in 1997.

In the fourth quarter of 1998 we accrued $1.5 million for legal fees and a write
off of a receivable related to a Florida State Court judgment. We also reduced
our provision for litigation by $2.0 million, due to the partial settlement on
another lawsuit. In the second quarter of 1997, we accrued a $4.5 million charge
for the estimated costs related to a Florida State court judgment. See item 3.
Legal Proceedings.

Due to lower volumes, the management upon its review in 1997 of long-lived
assets, determined that impairment had occurred on some of our assets. An
impairment expense was recognized of $2.4 million in 1997, compared to no
expense in 1998.

Through improved collections and more stringent credit review, the allowance for
doubtful accounts and notes was decreased during the year. The expense for
doubtful accounts in 1998 was a benefit of $65,000 compared to an expense of
$2.9 million in 1997.

DIVISIONAL OPERATING INCOME

The operating income was $946,000 in 1998 compared to a loss of $12.6 million in
1997. Our concrete and related products division had an operating income of
$693,000 in 1998, representing an increase of $5.0 million compared to an
operating loss of $4.3 million in 1997. This increase in profitability is
primarily attributable to the decrease in expense for doubtful accounts and
notes of $2.3 million, to impairment of long-lived assets of $1.9 million taken
in 1997 and to a reduction in expense in St. Martin. Our land development
contracting division had operating income of $715,000 in 1998 compared to a loss
of $3.5 million in 1997, an improvement of $4.2 million. This improvement is
mainly attributable to increased activity at much better margins. In 1997, we
took losses on a contract in the Caribbean. Our expense for doubtful accounts
was a benefit of $59,000 in 1998, compared to an expense of $659,000 in 1997.
Also, legal expenses were reduced.

OTHER INCOME

We had gains on sale of property and equipment of $507,000 in 1998 compared to a
loss of $372,000 in 1997. We recognized $278,000 in profit on the sale of our
share of the CorbKinnon joint venture. Our interest expense was reduced to $2.1
million in 1998 from $2.7 million in 1997. This decrease is due to decreased
loan balances and an improved cash position in 1998. Our interest income has
increased to $1.4 million in 1998 compared to $538,000 in 1997. This is due to
our recognizing as income, cash receipts in excess of anticipated amounts from
agreed upon sources from the notes receivable due from the Government of Antigua
and Barbuda.

                                       13

<PAGE>

INCOME TAXES

Income taxes increased to $339,000 in 1998 from $307,000 in 1997. Our tax rate
varies depending on the level of our earnings in the various tax jurisdictions
where we operate, the level of operating loss carry-forwards and tax exemptions
available to us. See Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and
"Business - Tax Exemptions and Benefits."

NET EARNINGS (LOSS)

Our net income was $484,000 in 1998 compared to a loss of $15.5 million in 1997.
This change in profitability was primarily attributable to increased gross
profit of $2.5 million in the contracting division, a reduced charge for
litigation expense of $5.0 million, a reduction in impairment losses of $2.4
million, a reduced expense for doubtful accounts and notes of $3.0 million, a
decrease in SG&A expense of $2.0 million, and a decrease in net interest of $1.4
million.

COMPARISON OF YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 WITH YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996

REVENUE

The Company's 1997 revenue of $64.2 million compares to $69.5 million in 1996.
This 7.5 percent decrease was due to lower contracting revenue and a smaller
decrease in concrete and related products revenue.

Concrete and related products revenue decreased 2.9 percent to $51.5 million in
1997 from $53.0 million in 1996. This decrease was due to lower demand for the
division's products.

Revenue from contracting decreased 29.5 percent to $9.9 million in 1997 from
$14.0 million in 1996. This decrease was due to the completion in mid 1996 of
several hurricane-related repair contracts which were not replaced by new
contract backlog. Our backlog of unfulfilled portions of contracts at December
31, 1997 was $4.4 million compared to $3.4 million at December 31, 1996.

COST OF CONCRETE AND RELATED PRODUCTS

Cost of concrete and related products increased to 80.9 percent of division
revenue in 1997 from 74.1 percent in 1996. The higher costs were due to lower
sales, higher production costs, and less favorable mix of products.

COST OF CONTRACTING

Cost of contracting increased to 98.6 percent of division revenue in 1997 from
89.1 percent in 1996. The higher costs were due to losses taken on a Caribbean
contract and lower revenues.

OPERATING EXPENSES

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A expense") increased 10.6
percent to $13.3 million in 1997 from $12.1 million in 1996. This increase was
due to higher non-income taxes of $460,000 and to higher retirement benefits of
$275,000. SG&A expense increased to 20.8 percent of 1997 revenue from 17.4
percent in 1996.

                                       14

<PAGE>

In the second quarter of 1997, we accrued a $4.5 million charge for the
estimated costs of a Florida state court judgment which we are contesting
through the appellate court. See item 3. Legal Proceedings.

Management reviewed long-lived assets and determined that, due to lower volumes,
a $2.4 million impairment expense should be recognized in 1997. We had no
impairment expense in 1996.

In our allowance for doubtful accounts and notes, the 1997 expense was $2.9
million compared to $302,000 in 1996.

DIVISIONAL OPERATING INCOME

A 1997 operating loss of $12.6 million compares to 1996 operating income of $3.5
million. Our concrete and related products had a 1997 operating loss of $4.3
million compared to operating income of $4.9 million in 1996. This decrease in
profitability is due to the higher cost of sales, the $2.2 million increase in
allowance for doubtful accounts and notes, the $1.9 million impairment of
long-lived assets, the $460,000 increase in taxes, and the $275,000 increase in
retirement benefits.

Our 1997 contracting operating loss of $3.5 million compares to a 1996 loss of
$1.1 million. This increase was due to losses taken on a Carribean contract, the
increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts and notes, and the impairment of
long-lived assets.

FOURTH QUARTER ADJUSTMENTS

The fourth quarter of 1997 included a $1.6 million adjustment to inventories, a
$2.4 million impairment loss, and a $2.6 million increase in the allowance for
doubtful accounts and notes.

INCOME TAXES

Income taxes decreased to $307,000 in 1997 from $383,000 in 1996. Our tax rate
varies depending on earnings, jurisdictions, loss carry-forwards and tax
exemptions. See Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and
"Business - Tax Exemptions and Benefits."

NET (LOSS) EARNINGS

The Company's 1997 net loss of $15.5 million compares to 1996 net income of
$313,000. This decrease in profitability was due to lower gross profit in both
divisions, litigation expense, an impairment loss, a higher provision for
doubtful accounts and notes, and an increase in SG&A expense.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We generally fund our working capital needs from operations and bank borrowings.
In the contracting 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 contracting services. Accounts receivable for concrete and related products
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.

                                       15

<PAGE>

Management believes our cash flow from operations, existing working capital, and
funds available from lines of credit will be adequate to meet our needs during
the next 12 months.

As of December 31, 1998, our liquidity and capital resources included cash and
cash equivalents of $2.3 million and working capital of $6.9 million. Included
in working capital is $2.9 million of equipment and real estate held for sale.
Although management intends to sell these assets during 1999, there can be no
assurance that they will be sold. As of December 31, 1998, total outstanding
liabilities of $38.8 million compares to $43.6 million as of December 31, 1997.
As of December 31, 1998, available lines of credit totaled $1.4 million.

Cash flow provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 1998
was $5.3 million compared with $1.8 million for the year ended December 31,
1997. The primary use of cash for operating activities during the year ended
December 31, 1998 was a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of
$554,000. The primary sources of cash for the period were a $539,000 reduction
in other current assets and a $633,000 reduction in accounts receivable.

Net cash used in investing activities was $1.6 million in 1998. Purchases of
property, plant, and equipment were $7.6 million. The purchases were almost
completely financed through equipment financing.

We turned our fiscal year-end accounts receivable, excluding notes and employee
receivables, approximately 7.2 times in 1998 compared to 5.3 times in 1997. The
improvement resulted from increased contracting activity which normally has a
higher turnover ratio. However, the concrete division decreased its ratio
slightly.

The Company entered into a credit agreement with a Caribbean bank in November
1996 for a total credit of $7.0 million. One part of the credit agreement is a
term loan for $6.0 million repayable in monthly installments through November
2002. We had $3.9 million of borrowings outstanding on this loan at December 31,
1998. The second part is a revolving line of credit of $1.0 million. The credit
line has a review and re-approval process in July of each year until 2002. We
had no borrowings outstanding under this line of credit at December 31, 1998.
The interest rate on amounts borrowed under both loans varies with the prime
rate.

We have a $500,000 unsecured overdraft facility from a commercial bank in the
Caribbean. The facility is due on demand and bears interest at 14.0 percent per
annum. At December 31, 1998, the Company had borrowings of $88,000 outstanding
under this line.

At December 31, 1998 we had borrowed approximately $5.6 million from the Company
President. The note is unsecured and bears interest at a rate variable with the
prime rate. One hundred sixty-three thousand is due on demand and $5.4 million
is due on January 1, 2000.

We purchase equipment as needed for our ongoing business operations. We are
currently replacing or upgrading some equipment used by the concrete and related
products division, principally concrete trucks and quarry equipment. This should
result in a net cash expenditure, after financing part of the equipment
purchases, of approximately $3.0 million. 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

                                       16

<PAGE>

duration, require us to make significant investments in heavy construction
equipment. During 1998, we sold equipment and a marina with an original cost
basis of approximately $7.6 million and a net book value of $4.1 million. The
net proceeds were approximately $3.9 million. We believe we have available or
can obtain sufficient financing for most of our contemplated equipment
replacements and additions. Historically, we have used a number of lenders to
finance a portion of our machinery and equipment purchases. At December 31,
1998, amounts outstanding to these lenders totaled $13.2 million. These loans
are typically repaid over a three to five-year term in monthly principal and
interest installments.

A significant portion of our outstanding debt bears interest at variable rates.
A substantial increase in interest rates could negatively impact us.

Our notes receivable and accrued interest at December 31, 1998 include $10.9
million in promissory notes from the Government of Antigua with $2.0 million
classified as a current receivable.

YEAR 2000 ISSUE

The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs being written using two
digits rather than four to define the applicable year. If not addressed, such
computer systems, software products and embedded technology may be unable to
properly interpret dates beyond the year 1999, which could cause system failures
or miscalculations and lead to disruptions in our activities and operations.

During 1998 we have assessed our computer information systems. The majority of
our systems are purchased from outside vendors. Those installed systems, which
are not currently able to fully function in the Year 2000, either have new
versions which are Year 2000 compliant or the vendor has committed to a Year
2000 compliant release in sufficient time to allow installation and testing
prior to critical cut-over dates.

We have identified three major areas determined to be critical for successful
Year 2000 compliance:

    /bullet/ Information systems such as PCs, networks, batch-plant computers

    /bullet/ Third party relationships, including customers, suppliers, and
             government agencies

    /bullet/ Equipment which may contain microprocessors with embedded
             technology

We have taken an inventory of all computers and software and we are planning the
changes needed for these systems to become Year 2000 compliant. We are currently
implementing a new information system for our financial reporting, and we are
evaluating proposals from various vendors in respect to distribution systems for
the island subsidiaries. We believe that all conversion efforts will be
completed before the end of 1999.

We have started the process of contacting suppliers and customers regarding
their Year 2000 compliance status. Our contact includes questioning them about
imbedded micro-processors.

We have initiated a Year 2000 contingency plan development process to mitigate
potential disruptions in our activities and operations that may be created by
failures of critical business partners, equipment and internal systems. These

                                       17

<PAGE>

contingency plans are expected to be developed by the third quarter of 1999.
However, we can provide no assurance that it will correctly anticipate the
level, impact or duration of non-compliance by critical business partners,
equipment or internal systems, or that contingency plans will be sufficient to
mitigate the impact of non-compliance.

We estimate to spend around $300,000 on our Year 2000 project. This consists of
PC's, software and other related costs.

We cannot assure that our systems or the computer systems of other companies
with whom we conduct business will be Year 2000 compliant prior to December 31,
1999. Management has determined that making the required system changes will
have no material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(1)      DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         (a)      DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

                  Devcon International Corp. and its subsidiaries (the
                  "Company") produce and distribute ready-mix concrete, crushed
                  stone, concrete block, and asphalt and distribute bulk and
                  bagged cement in the Caribbean. The Company also performs
                  earthmoving, excavating and filling operations and builds golf
                  courses, roads, 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. Significant intercompany balances and
                  transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

                  The Company's investments in unconsolidated joint ventures and
                  affiliates are accounted for by the equity method. 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 are accounted for by using the cost method.

         (c)      REVENUE RECOGNITION

                  CONCRETE AND RELATED PRODUCTS

                  Revenue is recognized when the products are delivered.

                  CONTRACTING

                  The Company uses the percentage-of-completion method of
                  accounting for both financial statements and tax reports.
                  Revenues and related costs are recorded based on the Company's
                  estimates of the completion percentage of each project.
                  Anticipated contract losses, when probable and estimatable,
                  are charged to earnings. 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 a specific contract. While some contracts
                  extend longer, most are completed within one year.

                  OTHER

                  Other revenue consists of revenue from a marina that the
                  Company sold in 1998. Revenue is recognized when products or
                  services are delivered.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

         (d)      CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

                  The Company considers financial instruments which mature
                  within three months at the time of purchase to be cash
                  equivalents.


         (e)      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. Cash receipts
                  for anticipated amounts from agreed upon sources on impaired
                  notes receivable are applied to reduce the principal amount of
                  such notes and any excess is recognized as interest income.

         (f)      INVENTORIES

                  The cost of sand, stone, cement and concrete block inventories
                  is determined using average costs approximating the first-in,
                  first-out (FIFO) method and is not in excess of market. All
                  other inventories are stated at the lower of average cost or
                  market.

         (g)      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 interests                 3 - 55 years
                           Equipment                           3 - 20 years
                           Furniture and fixtures              3 - 10 years

                  Assets not required for the Company's current or future
                  business operations are classified as assets held for sale.
                  Such assets include real estate, earth-moving machinery, and
                  other construction equipment.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

         (h)      FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

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

                  For those subsidiaries which function in Eastern Caribbean
                  dollars and French francs, their 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 equity by $340,624 in 1998 and decreased
                  equity by $1.2 million in 1997. The adjustment for 1996 was
                  not significant.

         (i)      INTANGIBLE ASSETS

                  The excess of cost over the fair value of net assets in
                  acquired subsidiaries, and costs of non-compete agreements,
                  are amortized over five to fifteen year periods on a
                  straight-line basis. The Company regularly evaluates the
                  recoverability of its intangible assets and their amortization
                  periods to determine whether an adjustment to the carrying
                  value or a revision to the estimated useful lives is
                  appropriate. Based on the Company's policy, management
                  believes that there is no impairment of value related to the
                  intangible assets as of December 31, 1998.

                  Accumulated amortization on intangible assets amounted to
                  $746,379 in 1998, $550,795 in 1997, and $371,187 in 1996.

         (j)      EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

                  In December 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
                  Accounting Standards No. 128, EARNINGS PER SHARE ("SFAS 128")
                  which establishes new standards for computing and presenting
                  earnings per share. Earnings per share for prior periods have
                  been restated to reflect the provisions of this statement.

                  Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income
                  (loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding
                  during the period. Diluted earnings per share are 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 earnings per share.

         (k)      FOREIGN OPERATIONS

                  Some of the Company's operations are conducted in foreign
                  areas of the Caribbean. In 1998, 52.0 percent of the Company's
                  revenue was derived from foreign operations. Overseas contract
                  work performed by the parent U.S. corporation is not
                  considered foreign revenue for purposes of this calculation.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

         (l)      INCOME TAXES

                  The Company and certain of our domestic subsidiaries file
                  consolidated federal and state income tax returns.
                  Subsidiaries located in U.S. possessions and foreign countries
                  file individual income tax returns. Deferred income taxes are
                  recognized for income and expense items that are reported in
                  different years for financial statement and income tax
                  purposes.

                  U.S. income taxes are not provided on undistributed earnings
                  which are expected to be permanently reinvested by foreign
                  subsidiaries.

                  The Company adopted the Statement of Financial Accounting
                  Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." This uses an
                  asset and liability approach to financial reporting for income
                  taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities
                  are recognized based on differences between financial
                  statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using
                  current tax rates. Deferred income taxes result from temporary
                  differences between income reported in the financial
                  statements and taxable income.

         (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)      IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND
                  FOR LONG-LIVED ASSETS TO BE DISPOSED OF

                  The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance
                  SFAS No. 121, ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED
                  ASSETS AND FOR LONG-LIVED ASSETS TO BE DISPOSED Of.

                  This Statement requires that long-lived assets and certain
                  identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever
                  events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
                  value of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of
                  assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the
                  carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected
                  to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to
                  be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by
                  the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceed
                  the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are
                  reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value
                  less costs to sell.

                  In accordance with its policy, the Company recorded a charge
                  of approximately $2.4 million for the impairment of long-lived
                  assets during 1997.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

         (o)      STOCK OPTION PLANS

                  Prior to 1996, the Company accounted for its stock option
                  plans in accordance with the provisions of Accounting
                  Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK
                  ISSUED TO EMPLOYEES, and related interpretations. Compensation
                  expense was recorded on the date of grant only if the current
                  market price of the underlying stock exceeded the exercise
                  price. In 1996 the Company adopted SFAS No. 123, ACCOUNTING
                  FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION, which permits entities to
                  recognize as expense over the vesting period the fair value of
                  stock-based awards on the date of grant. SFAS No. 123 also
                  allows entities and the Company has elected, to continue to
                  apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and provide pro
                  forma net income and pro forma earnings per share disclosures
                  for employee stock option grants made in 1995 and future years
                  as if the fair-value-based method defined in SFAS No. 123 had
                  been applied.

         (p)       COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

                   On January 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130,
                   REPORTING COMPREHENSIVE INCOME. SFAS No. 130 establishes
                   standards for reporting and presentation of comprehensive
                   income and its components in a full set of financial
                   statements. Comprehensive income consists of net income and
                   cumulative foreign currency translation and is presented in
                   the consolidated statements of stockholders equity and
                   comprehensive income. The statement requires only additional
                   disclosures in the consolidated financial statements; it does
                   not affect the Company's financial position or results of
                   operations. Prior year financial statements have been
                   reclassified to conform to the requirements of SFAS No. 130.

         (q)       SEGMENT REPORTING

                   Effective December 31, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No.
                   131, DISCLOSURES ABOUT SEGMENTS OF AN ENTERPRISE AND RELATED
                   INFORMATION. This statement establishes standards for
                   reporting information about a company's operating segments
                   and related disclosures about its products, services,
                   geographic areas of operations and major customers. Adoption
                   of this statement did not impact the Company's results of
                   operations or financial position. The "Segment Reporting"
                   note provides further information.

         (r)      RECLASSIFICATION

                  Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform
                  with the current year presentation.

                                                   ========= ========= =========

         Options to purchase 148,300 shares of common stock at $2.33 per share,
         were outstanding for the year ended December 31, 1997, but were not
         included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the
         inclusion of the options would be antidilutive. The options expire on
         various dates.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


         classified as a current receivable. The gross balance of the notes is
         $33.5 million. The notes called for both quarterly and monthly
         principal and interest payments until maturity in 1997. The notes were
         not satisfied at maturity but the Antiguan government has advised the
         Company that payments from agreed upon sources will continue until the
         obligation is satisfied. The agreed upon sources are lease proceeds
         from a rental of a United States military base, fuel tax revenues and
         proceeds from a real estate venture. Cash receipts during 1998 from
         agreed upon sources was $2.3 million. Interest income recognized for
         amounts received in excess of amounts from agreed upon sources in 1998
         and 1997 was $746,120 and $202,420 respectively.

         Notes receivable from an Antiguan government agency, amounting to
         $855,803 in 1998 and 1997, are included in the total due from the
         government of Antigua, along with Antigua-Barbuda Government
         Development Bonds 1994-1997 series amounting to $253,062 and $240,649
         in 1998 and 1997, respectively.

         The Company also has net trade receivables from various Antiguan
         government agencies of $77,185 and $5,866 in 1998 and 1997,
         respectively. Several of the Company's customers perform services for
         the Antiguan government and depend on payments from the government to
         satisfy their obligations to the Company.

(6)      ACQUISITIONS

         In May 1996, the Company contributed approximately $1.2 million in
         capital to a new subsidiary company in return for a 50.02 percent
         ownership interest. The new subsidiary leases and operates a quarry in
         Guaynabo, Puerto Rico. Capital contributions of the Company's minority
         ownership partners, amounting to approximately $1.2 million, are
         classified as part of minority interest in consolidated subsidiaries.

(7)      FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

         The carrying amount of financial instruments including cash, cash
         equivalents, receivables - net, other current assets, accounts payable
         trade and other, accrued expenses and other liabilities, notes payable
         to banks, and current installments of long-term debt approximated fair
         value at December 31, 1998 because of the short maturity of these
         instruments. The carrying value of debt and notes receivable
         approximated fair value at December 31, 1998 based upon the present
         value of estimated future cash flows.

         The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December 31, 1998
         was $7.6 million or about 92 percent of the potential deferred tax
         benefit. The Company's believes partial repatriation of foreign
         earnings can utilize net operating losses.

         In April 1988, the U.S. Virgin Islands Industrial Development
         Commission (IDC) granted one of our subsidiaries a 10-year tax
         exemption expiring in April 1998. With some conditions and exceptions,
         our (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 January 1994, we were granted a five-year extension,
         through April 2003, of the previous benefits.

         In partial payment of a major contract, the Government of Antigua
         granted two subsidiaries of the Company a 10-year tax holiday effective
         January 1, 1987 through December 31, 1996 from all taxes due (1) on
         that construction contract, (2) on a joint venture to develop vacant
         land and a commercial property; and (3) on our sale of concrete and
         related products in Antigua. The tax holiday also exempted the Company
         from certain accrued tax liabilities. In 1989, the Government of
         Antigua, in payment for additional work done, exempted the Company from
         taxes that would have been due on a construction contract at Jolly
         Harbour, Antigua.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

         At December 31, 1998, approximately $39.0 million of foreign
         subsidiaries earnings have not been distributed and no U.S. income
         taxes have been provided on them. These earnings are considered
         permanently reinvested in the subsidiaries operations, 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 at the U.S. federal tax rate,
         net of foreign tax credits, may be incurred.

         At December 31, 1998 the Company had accumulated net operating loss
         carryforwards available to offset future taxable income in our
         Caribbean and U.S. operations of about $21 million, which expire at
         various times through the year 2008.

(10)     DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

         In 1989, a Devcon subsidiary obtained a minority interest in a
         partnership which manufactured, sold and distributed acoustical ceiling
         tiles. The subsidiary invested $1.2 million and received a 29 percent
         partnership interest. Two of the Company's directors paid $450,000 for
         an 11 percent interest. In 1994, an Antiguan subsidiary of the Company
         became the new general partner and the Company's ownership in the
         partnership was increased to 64.5 percent. In November 1995, the
         Company disposed of this operation. At December 31, 1995, the intended
         disposal was accounted for as a discontinued operation, and prior
         financial statements were restated to reflect this discontinued
         operation. The Company's investment in the partnership was written down
         $800,000, to its estimated net realizable value of approximately
         $749,000. The Company sold its interest in this business in September
         1996 for a $600,000 secured promissory note and a $385,000 unsecured
         promissory note, resulting in an additional disposal loss of $488,000.
         As of December 31, 1998, the outstanding amounts of these two notes
         were $600,000 and $128,000, respectively.

         Total operating lease expense was $3,985,965 million in 1998,
         $4,083,000 in 1997 and $1,843,719 in 1996. Some operating leases
         provide for contingent rentals or royalties based on related sales and
         production; contingent expense amounted to $130,370 in 1998, $261,138
         in 1997 and $160,433 in 1996. Included in the above minimum lease
         commitments are royalty payments due to the owners of the Societe des
         Carrieres de Grand Case (SCGC) quarry. See Note 18.

         During November 1997, the Company sold its leasehold right on a long
         term land lease with the Dutch government of St. Maarten, and recorded
         a $240,000 loss on disposition of leasehold. The property was partially
         vacated during 1998, and the Company entered into a month-to-month
         lease for a portion of the property.

         On February 3, 1998, the Company sold Crown Bay Marina on St. Thomas,
         U.S. Virgin Islands, for $3.3 million or about the net book value and
         related costs of disposition. Proceeds were utilized to repay about
         $3.0 million in debt on the property. The related long term operating
         lease was assigned to the new owner.

         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

         The Company leases a 4.4 acre parcel of real property from the

                                AND SUBSIDIARIES

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

         At December 31, 1998, the Company had borrowed approximately $5.6
         million from the Company's President. The note is unsecured and bears
         interest at a rate variable with the prime rate. One hundred
         sixty-three thousand is due on demand and $5.4 million is due on
         January 1, 2000. The President 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 which, if successful, would result in
         ownership by a person or group of 15 percent or more of the common
         stock. 

         At December 31, 1998, the Company has borrowed approximately $987,000
         from a Board member of the Company. The two notes are secured by
         various pieces of equipment and bear interest at a rate of 10 percent
         per annum with monthly payments being made through July of 2002.

         At December 31, 1998 the Company had an investment of $154,000 for a
         2.1 percent interest in a real estate joint venture in which the
         President and one Board member also participate with equity of 14.8
         percent and 1.7 percent, respectively. No income or loss has been
         recorded from this investment. The Company has a $15.2 million contract
         with the venture to perform land preparation services. The Company
         recognized contracting revenue of $3.3 million during 1998. The backlog
         on the contract as of December 31, 1998 was $11.9 million. The venture
         has not yet received its total financing, thus the amount and timing of
         the backlog could vary.

         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 was $673,379 in 1998
         and $583,264 in 1997, respectively.

(15)     STOCK OPTION PLANS

         The Company adopted stock option plans for officers and employees in
         1986 and 1992. While each plan terminates 10 years after the adoption
         date, issued options have their own schedule of termination. Until 1996
         and 2002, options to acquire up to 300,000 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 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 Plan expire after 10
         years.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

         The Company adopted a stock-option plan for directors in 1992 and
         terminates in 2002. Options to acquire up to 50,000 shares of common
         stock may be granted at no less than the fair-market value on the date
         of grant. The 1992 Directors' Plan provides that 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 have 10-year terms, vest and become fully exercisable six
         months after the issue date. Stock option activity by year was as
         follows:

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

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

                                          1998             1997           1996

         Net income (loss),
           as reported               $    484,273     $(15,536,023)     $312,888
         Net income (loss),
           pro forma                 $    335,277     $(15,651,524)     $189,164

         Basic earnings (loss)

           pro forma                 $       0.07     $    (3.48)       $  .15  
                                     ============     ===========       ========

         Pro forma net (loss) income reflects only options granted since 1994.
         The full impact of calculating compensation cost for stock options
         under SFAS No. 123 is not reflected in the pro forma net (loss) income
         amounts above because compensation cost is reflected over the options'
         five years vesting period and compensation cost for options granted
         prior to 1994 is not considered.

(16)     EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

         The Company sponsors a 401(k) plan for some employees over the age of
         21 with 1,000 hours of service in the previous 12 months of employment.
         Employee contributions are matched by us up to 3.0 percent of an
         employee's salary. Our contributions totaled $160,446 in 1998, $148,183
         in 1997, and $148,758 in 1996.

(18)     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 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 $550,000 per year through August 2000. The agreement may be
         renewed, at the Company's option, for two successive five-year periods
         and require annual payments of $550,000 per year. At the end of the
         15-year royalty period, the Company has the option to purchase this
         50-hectare property for $4.4 million.

         In 1989, the Company entered into a new Life Insurance and Salary
         Continuation Agreement with the Company President. Should the Company
         cease to employ the President because of his disability or death, the
         Company agreed to pay the President or his designated beneficiary an
         amount equal to his salary and bonus for a period of five years. The
         Company has not accrued for this salary continuation over the expected
         remaining period of the President's active employment as the agreement
         does not provide for payment upon retirement. Based on present facts
         and circumstances, future payments cannot be determined at this time.

         The Company believed it was entitled to additional compensation on a
         Florida construction project and we pursued a claim legally. In
         February 1999 a verdict was issued, giving us no additional
         compensation except for the retainage. Due to this judgment the Company
         took a charge for litigation of $1.5 million in 1998 and it may decide
         to appeal the judgment.

         In 1992, Fore Golf, Inc. sued the Company in the Ninth Judicial
         Circuit, Orange County, Florida, Case No. CI-92-5289. The Company was
         sued by Fore Golf, Inc. for work which this subcontractor allegedly
         performed in 1990 and 1991 during construction of two golf courses at
         Disney World in Orlando, Florida, the alleged unpaid contract balance
         in connection with this project, and inefficiency costs. In June 1997,
         the court issued an order establishing liability and damages against
         the Company. The Court entered a final judgment in favor of the
         plaintiff for damages and prejudgment interest. Subsequently, the trial
         court also awarded the plaintiff attorneys' fees. The Company accrued a
         total of $4.5 million, included in other liabilities, in 1997 to
         reflect the total estimated

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

         costs to be incurred should it not be successful in our post trial and
         appeal efforts. The Company has posted a bond for the damages,
         prejudgment interest and plaintiff's attorneys' fees. This bond is
         personally guaranteed by the Company's President. The Company settled
         its lawsuit with Fore Golf, Inc. and its creditors in March 1999. The
         settlement calls for a cash payment of approximately $300,000 and
         payments of $460,000 over a period of 4 years. The Company has not yet
         settled with the lawyers of Fore Golf regarding the judgment on
         attorney' fees. The trial court fee award has been contested by Fore
         Golf's attorneys. As the result of this settlement, the Company
         decreased the provision for litigation by $2.0 million.

         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 1990's the buildings began to develop exterior cracking and
         "popouts." 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 popouts and to
         determine if the cracking/popouts are caused by a phenomenon known as
         alkali reaction (ARS). The expert found in his report dated December
         3, 1998, BBW 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, the plaintiff would have to file the same claim in an
         Antillean court. It is too early to predict the final outcome of this 
         matter. 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.

         In December 1995 the Virgin Islands Water and Power Authority ("WAPA")
         notified the Company that a fuel oil leak was being investigated at
         WAPA's St. Croix generating facility adjacent to a property owned by
         the Company's Virgin Islands subsidiary. This notification further
         stated that WAPA had notified all required federal and local agencies
         and that WAPA would properly mitigate any damage to the Company's
         property. WAPA is in the process of performing mitigation activities on
         the Company's property and has submitted copies of its reports to
         government agencies to the Company. The Company has not incurred any
         cost related to the mitigation activities. The Company is in the
         process of hiring a professional firm to independently evaluate the
         condition of the property and to advise the Company regarding any
         actions which should be taken to recover any permanent damages to the
         property.

         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.

         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.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

         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 sale or disposal by the venture of its real estate.
         There are no current plans to sell or dispose of any of the venture's
         property.

(19)     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 in excess of billings and estimated earnings. No single
         customer accounted for a significant amount of our sales in 1998, 1997
         or 1996 and there are no significant receivables from a single customer
         as of December 31, 1998 or 1997, other than the notes receivable from
         the Government of Antigua and Barbuda. 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 $11.9 million.
         A subsidiary and two of the Company's directors are minority partners
         of, and the Company's President is Chairman of, the entity developing
         the project. This partnership does not yet have the financing to
         complete the project, therefore the amount of the backlog could
         substantially diminish and the timing of completion of the contract
         could vary. The receivable on this contract has been maintained current
         by the partnership.

         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.
