See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. 6 PDG ENVIRONMENTAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2005 (UNAUDITED) NOTE 1 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION The consolidated financial statements include PDG Environmental, Inc. (the "Corporation" or "Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. In the quarter ending April 30, 2002, the Corporation formed IAQ Training Institute ("IAQ venture") a 50/50 joint venture to provide training in mold awareness and remediation. The IAQ venture was accounted for by the equity method of accounting whereby the Corporation records its proportionate shares of the IAQ venture's income or loss as a component of Other Income(Expense). The Corporation sold its investment in IAQ venture in the quarter ended April 30, 2005. The condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six month periods ended July 31, 2005 and 2004 are unaudited and are presented pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended January 31, 2005 and the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as amended, for the quarter ended April 30, 2005. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (which are of a recurring nature) necessary for the fair statement of the results for the interim periods. Due to variations in the environmental and specialty contracting industry, the results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. NOTE 2 - FEDERAL INCOME TAXES A federal income tax provision of $376,000 was provided for the six month period ended July 31, 2005. During the six month period ended July 31, 2004, the Corporation made no provision for federal income taxes due to the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards for financial reporting purposes. At July 31, 2005 a valuation allowance for deferred taxes of $440,000 has been provided due to the uncertainty as to the future realization of those deferred income tax assets. While the Company has recently been profitable, the federal net operating loss carryforward was only fully utilized in the quarter ended January 31, 2005 and the Company's operations are subject to a high degree of volatility due to the nature of its business. Management still believes that the allowance is reasonable and will evaluate it prospectively at the end of each quarter. State income tax provisions of $102,000 and $42,000 were made in the current and prior year periods, respectively, due to income in the current and prior year. Income taxes paid by the Corporation for the six months ended July 31, 2005 and 2004 totaled approximately $624,000 and $37,000, respectively. NOTE 3 - TERM DEBT On August 3, 2000, the Corporation closed on a $4.7 million credit facility with Sky Bank, an Ohio banking association, consisting of a 3-year $3 million revolving line of credit, a 5-year $1 million equipment note, a 15-year $0.4 million mortgage and a 5-year $0.3 million commitment for future equipment financing. The new financing repaid all of the Company's existing debt. The line of credit, equipment note and commitment for future equipment financing were initially at an interest rate of prime plus 1%. The mortgage is at an interest rate of 9.15% fixed for three years and is then adjusted to 2.75% above the 3-year Treasury Index every three years. 7 In January 2004 Sky Bank approved a permanent $500,000 increase in the Company's line of credit to $5.5 million and in July 2004 Sky Bank approved a permanent $1,000,000 increase in the Company's line of credit to $6.5 million In April 2004 Sky Bank extended the maturity date on the line of credit until June 6, 2006. In October 2004 and December 2004 Sky Bank approved a temporary $1,000,000 and $500,000, respectively, increase in the Company's line of credit to $8.0 million until June 30, 2005. The increase in the line of credit was required to fund the increase in revenues generated by the hurricane recovery work beginning in the third quarter of fiscal 2005. On May 18, 2005 Sky Bank permanently increased the line of credit to $8 million and extended the maturity date to June 6, 2007. Additionally, the interest rate on the line of credit was lowered to prime plus 1/4% and the Chief Executive Officer's limited personnel guarantee was removed. In May 2005 Sky Bank also approved an equipment financing note of a maximum of $400,000 with a four year term and a 7.25% interest rate. As of July 31, 2005, $240,000 of equipment had been financed on this equipment note. The majority of the Corporation's property and equipment are pledged as security for the above obligations. On July 31, 2005, the balance on the line of credit was $1,100,000 with an unused availability of $6,900,000. The Corporation paid interest costs totaling approximately $223,000 and $221,000 during the six months ended July 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. On September 8, 2005 Sky Bank permanently increased the line of credit to $11 million, subject to finalization of the loan documentation. Additionally, the interest rate on the line of credit may be lowered from the current prime plus 1/4% rate to a London Interbank Offer Rate ("LIBOR") based pricing upon the attainment of certain operating leverage ratio. The initial LIBOR rate would be LIBOR plus 2.75% but would decrease to LIBOR plus 2.25% upon the attainment of improved operating leverage ratios. NOTE 4 - PREFERRED STOCK In March 2004 in conjunction with the private placement of the Company's common stock, as discussed in Note 8, the remaining 6,000 shares of preferred stock were converted into 24,000 shares Common Stock with the accrued but unpaid dividends paid in cash. NOTE 5 - NET EARNINGS PER SHARE The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

The conversion of the Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock is not included in the calculation of dilutive earnings per share as their inclusion would have been antidilutive.

At July 31, 2005 and 2004; 561,000 and 60,000 options, and 2,000,000 and 2,000,000 warrants, respectively, were not included in the calculation of dilutive earnings per share as their inclusion would have been antidilutive. The conversion of the Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock is not included in the calculation of dilutive earnings per share as their inclusion would have been antidilutive. NOTE 6 - STOCK OPTIONS The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation plans under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and related Interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", to stock-based employee compensation. For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period. 9

NOTE 7 - PRIVATE PLACEMENT OF SECURITIES - JULY 2005 COMMON PRIVATE PLACEMENT SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT On July 1, 2005, the Company executed a securities purchase agreement (the "Common Purchase Agreement") with various institutional and accredited investors (the "Common Investors") pursuant to which it agreed to sell in a private placement transaction (the "Common Private Placement") for an aggregate purchase price of 10 $1,500,000 (a) 1,666,667 shares of the Company's Common Stock, par value $0.02 per share (the "Common Shares"), (b) warrants to purchase 416,667 shares of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.11 per share ("First Common Offering Warrants") and (c) warrants to purchase 416,667 shares of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.33 per share ("Second Common Offering Warrants" and, together with the First Common Offering Warrants, the "Common Offering Warrants"). The $0.90 purchase price per share for the Common Shares approximately represents 80% of the average of the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for the 20 day period prior to the execution of the Common Purchase Agreement. The Company closed the Common Private Placement on July 6, 2005. COMMON WARRANTS The First Common Offering Warrants issued to each Common Investor provide such Common Investor the right to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock, in aggregate, up to an additional 25% of the total number of Common Shares purchased by such Common Investor in the Common Private Placement at an exercise price of $1.11 per share. The First Common Offering Warrants contain a cashless exercise provision, whereby if at any time after one year from the date of issuance of this Warrant there is no effective Registration Statement registering, or no current prospectus available for, the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Warrant Holder, then the Warrant may also be exercised at such time by means of a "cashless exercise" in which the Warrant Holder shall be entitled to receive common shares for the number of Warrant Shares equal to the appreciation in the warrant above the exercise price at the time of the exercise. The First Common Offering Warrants expire five years from the date of issuance and contain adjustment provisions upon the occurrence of stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, reclassifications or similar events of the Company's capital stock, issuances of the Company's securities for consideration below the exercise price and pro rata distributions of cash, property, assets or securities to holders of the Company's Common Stock. If the First Common Offering Warrants are exercised in full in cash, the Company would receive upon such exercise aggregate proceeds of $462,500. The Second Common Offering Warrant issued to each Common Investors provides such Common Investor the right to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock, in aggregate, up to an additional 25% of the total number of Common Shares purchased by such Common Investor in the Common Private Placement at an exercise price of $1.33 per share. The Second Common Offering Warrants contain a cashless exercise provision, whereby if at any time after one year from the date of issuance of this Warrant there is no effective Registration Statement registering, or no current prospectus available for, the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Warrant Holder, then the Warrant may also be exercised at such time by means of a "cashless exercise" in which the Warrant Holder shall be entitled to receive common shares for the number of Warrant Shares equal to the appreciation in the warrant above the exercise price at the time of the exercise. The Second Common Offering Warrants expire five years from the date of issuance and contain adjustment provisions upon the occurrence of stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, reclassifications or similar events of the Company's capital stock, issuances of Company's securities for consideration below the exercise price and pro rata distributions of cash, property, assets or securities to holders of the Company's common stock. If the Second Common Offering Warrants are exercised in full in cash, the Company would receive upon such exercise aggregate proceeds of $554,167. The net proceeds to the Corporation from the offering, after costs associated with the Common Stock portion of the offering, of $1,367,000 have been allocated among common stock and warrants based upon their relative fair values. The Corporation used the Black-Scholes pricing model to determine the fair value of the warrants to be $365,000. PREFERRED PRIVATE PLACEMENT SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT On July 1, 2005, the Company executed a securities purchase agreement ("Preferred Purchase Agreement") with various institutional and accredited investors (the "Preferred Investors") pursuant to which it agreed to sell in a private placement transaction (the "Preferred Private Placement") for an aggregate purchase price of $5,500,000 (a) 5,500 shares of the Company's Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, stated value $1,000 per share (the "Preferred Shares"), (b) warrants to purchase 1,375,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.11 per share ("First Preferred Offering Warrants"), (c) warrants to purchase 1,375,000 11 shares of the Company's Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.33 per share ("Second Preferred Offering Warrants" and, together with the First Preferred Offering Warrants," the "Preferred Offering Warrants") and (d) warrants ("Over-Allotment Warrants") to purchase (1) up to 1,375 shares of Series C Preferred Stock (the "Additional Preferred Shares"), (2) warrants to purchase up to 343,750 shares of Common Stock at $1.11 per share ("First Additional Warrants") and (3) warrants to purchase up to 343,750 shares of Common Stock at $1.33 per share ("Second Additional Warrants" and, together with the First Additional Warrants, the "Additional Warrants"). The Preferred Private Placement closed on July 6, 2005. Under the terms of the Preferred Purchase Agreement, the Company is required to obtain stockholder approval to an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate of Amendment") to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. Subject to certain permitted issuances under the Preferred Purchase Agreement, the Company is also restricted from issuing additional securities for a period of six (6) months following the effective date of the Preferred Registration Statement without the prior written consent the holders of the Preferred Shares. PREFERRED WARRANTS The First Preferred Offering Warrants issued to each Preferred Investor provide such Preferred Investor the right to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock, in aggregate, up to an additional 25% of the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock purchased by such Preferred Investor in the Preferred Private Placement at an exercise price of $1.11 per share. The First Preferred Offering Warrants contain a cashless exercise provision, whereby at any time the Warrant may also be exercised at such time by means of a "cashless exercise" in which the Warrant Holder shall be entitled to receive common shares for the number of Warrant Shares equal to the appreciation in the warrant above the exercise price at the time of the exercise. The First Preferred Offering Warrants expire five years from the date of issuance and contain adjustment provisions upon the occurrence of stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, reclassifications or similar events of the Company's capital stock, issuances of Common Stock for consideration below the exercise price and pro rata distributions of cash, property, assets or securities to holders of the Company's common stock. If the First Preferred Offering Warrants are exercised in full in cash, the Company would receive upon such exercise aggregate proceeds of $1,526,250. The Second Preferred Offering Warrants issued to each Preferred Investor provide such Preferred Investor the right to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock, in aggregate, up to an additional 25% of the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock purchased by such Preferred Investor in the Preferred Private Placement at an exercise price of $1.33 per share. The Second Preferred Offering Warrants contain a cashless exercise provision, whereby at any time the Warrant may also be exercised at such time by means of a "cashless exercise" in which the Warrant Holder shall be entitled to receive common shares for the number of Warrant Shares equal to the appreciation in the warrant above the exercise price at the time of the exercise. The Second Preferred Offering Warrants expire five years from the date of issuance and contain adjustment provisions upon the occurrence of stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, reclassifications or similar events of the Company's capital stock, issuances of the Company's securities for consideration below the exercise price as well as pro rata distributions of cash, property, assets or securities to holders of the Company's common stock. If the Second Preferred Offering Warrants are exercised in full in cash, the Company would receive upon such exercise aggregate proceeds of $1,828,750. The net proceeds to the Corporation from the offering, after costs associated with the Preferred Stock portion of the offering, of $4,988,000 have been allocated among common stock and warrants based upon their relative fair values. The Corporation used the Black-Scholes pricing model to determine the fair value of the warrants to be $1,232,000. OVER-ALLOTMENT WARRANTS The Over-Allotment Warrants issued to each Preferred Investor provides such Preferred Investor the right to purchase at an exercise price of $1,000 per share (a) Additional Preferred Shares, in aggregate, up to 25% of the total number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock purchased by such Preferred Investor in the Preferred Private Placement, (b) First Additional Warrants exercisable for a number of shares of Common Stock in an amount, in aggregate, up to 6.25% of the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of 12 the Series C Preferred Stock purchased by such Preferred Investor in the Preferred Private Placement at an exercise price of $1.11 per share and (c) Second Additional Warrants exercisable for a number of shares of Common Stock in an amount, in aggregate, up to 6.25% of the total number of shares of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred purchased by such Purchaser in the Preferred Private Placement at an exercise price of $1.33 per share. The Over-Allotment Warrants expire upon the later of (x) 90 days after the effectiveness of the Preferred Registration Statement (as defined below) and (y) the date upon which the Company obtains stockholder approval of the Certificate of Amendment. TERMS OF THE PREFERRED STOCK The rights and preferences of the Preferred Shares are set forth in the Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights of Series C Preferred Stock (the "Certificate of Designation"). The Preferred Shares have a face value of $1,000 per share and are convertible at any time at the option of the holder into shares of Common Stock ("Conversion Shares") at the initial conversion price of $1.00 per share (the "Conversion Price"), subject to certain adjustments including (a) stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, reclassifications, mergers, consolidations, sales or transfers of the assets of the Company, share exchanges or other similar events, (b) certain anti-dilution adjustments. For a complete description of the terms of the Preferred Shares please see the Certificate of Designation. After valuing the warrants for the purchase of the Corporation's common stock issued with the convertible Preferred Shares ($1,232,000), the beneficial conversion contained in the Preferred Shares ($1,672,000) and the estimated costs associated with the Preferred Stock portion of the financing ($512,000) the convertible preferred stock will initially be valued at $2,084,000. The difference between this initial value and the face value of the Preferred Stock of $3,416,000 will be accreted back to the Preferred Stock as preferred dividends utilizing an effective interest rate of 24.5%. The accretion period is the shorter of the four-year term of the preferred or until the conversion of the preferred stock. For the three and six month periods ended July 31, 2005 the accretion of the aforementioned discount was $43,000. In accordance with FAS 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity," the accretion of the discount on the preferred stock is classified as interest expense in the Statement of Consolidated Operations. A cumulative premium (dividend) accrues and is payable with respect to each of the Preferred Shares equal to 8% of the stated value per annum. The premium is payable upon the earlier of: (a) the time of conversion in such number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the accrued premium by the Conversion Price or (b) the time of redemption in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds. For the three and six month periods ended July 31, 2005 the accrued dividend was $37,000. In accordance with FAS 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity," the accretion of the preferred stock dividend is classified as interest expense in the Statement of Consolidated Operations. The aforementioned private placement of common stock and preferred stock initially resulted in a $4.378 million increase in the Company's Stockholders' Equity for the amounts allocated to common stock, common stock warrants and additional paid-in capital. NOTE 8 - PRIVATE PLACEMENT OF SECURITIES - MARCH 2004 On March 4, 2004 the Corporation closed on a private placement transaction pursuant to which it sold 1,250,000 shares of Common Stock, (the "Shares"), to Barron Partners, LP (the "Investor") for an aggregate purchase price of $500,000. In addition, the Corporation issued two warrants to the Investor exercisable for shares of its Common Stock (the "Warrants"). The Shares and the Warrants were issued in a private placement transaction pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D and Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Offset against the proceeds is $51,000 of costs incurred in conjunction with the private placement transaction, primarily related to the cost of the registration of the common stock and common stock underlying the warrants, as discussed in the fourth paragraph of this note. The First Warrant provided the Investor the right to purchase up to 1,500,000 shares of the Corporation's Common Stock. During the year ended January 31, 2005 Barron exercised the First Warrant in full at an exercise price of $0.80 per share warrants resulting in proceeds of $1,200,000 to the Corporation. 13 The Second Warrant provides the Investor the right to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of the Corporation's Common Stock. The Second Warrant has an exercise price of $1.60 per share resulting in proceeds of $3,200,000 to the Corporation upon its full exercise and expires five years from the date of issuance. The Corporation may require the Investor to exercise the Second Warrant in full at any time until December 4, 2005 if the average price of the Corporation's Common Stock exceeds $2.40 for ten consecutive trading days and the Corporation has a Registration Statement effective during the same ten consecutive trading days. The warrant holder may exercise through a cashless net exercise procedure after March 4, 2005, if the shares underlying the warrant are either not subject to an effective registration statement or, if subject to a registration statement, during a suspension of the registration statement. The Corporation has reserved sufficient shares of its common stock to cover the issuance of shares relative to the unexercised warrants held by the Investor. In connection with these transactions, the Corporation and the Investor entered into a Registration Rights Agreement. Under this agreement, the Corporation was required to file within ninety (90) days of closing a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for the purpose of registering the resale of the Shares and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants. The Company's registration statement was declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on June 30, 2004. In the event that the Investor is not permitted to sell its Shares pursuant to the registration statement as a result of a permitted Black-Out Period (as defined in the Registration Statement) being exceeded or otherwise, then the Company will be obligated to pay the Investor liquidated damages equal to 18% of the Investor's purchase price per annum. The Corporation utilized the proceeds from the sale of its Common Stock for general business purposes and to partially fund its acquisition strategy. The Corporation granted the Investor the right of first refusal on certain subsequent offerings of the Corporation's securities and has agreed to maintain a listing of its common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board or another publicly traded market and cause its common stock to continue to be registered under Section 12 (b) or (g) of the Exchange Act of 1934. The net proceeds to the Corporation from the offering, after costs associated with the offering, of $449,000 have been allocated among common stock and warrants based upon their relative fair values. The Corporation used the Black-Scholes pricing model to determine the fair value of the warrants to be $287,000. NOTE 9 - GOODWILL At July 31, 2005 and January 31, 2005, the Corporation's goodwill was $1,571,000 and $1,338,000, respectively. The increase in goodwill during the current fiscal period was primarily attributable to a contingent earnout obligation related to an acquisition completed in fiscal 2002. SFAS No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" prescribes a two-phase process for impairment testing of goodwill, which is performed annually, absent any indicators of impairment. The first phase screens for impairment, while the second phase (if necessary) measures impairment. The Corporation has elected to perform its annual analysis during the fourth quarter of each year based upon goodwill balances as of the end of the third quarter. Although no indicators of impairment have been identified during fiscal 2005, there can be no assurance that future goodwill impairment tests will not result in a charge to earnings. NOTE 10 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Corporation is party to litigation matters and claims that are in the ordinary course of its operations, and while the results of such litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Corporation's consolidated financial statements. In June 2001, the Corporation acquired the net assets of Tri-State Restorations, Inc. The terms of the acquisition provide for an "Earnout Payment" payable in cash based upon a calculation of net profits earned through May 2005. As of July 31, 2005, $877,000 had been earned and accrued, of which $450,000 had been paid under the agreement. 14 NOTE 10 - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R "Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS 123R"), a revision to SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"), and superseding APB Opinion No. 25 "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and its related implementation guidance. SFAS 123R establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, including obtaining employee services in share-based payment transactions. SFAS 123R applies to all awards granted after the required effective date and to awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled after that date. Adoption of the provisions of SFAS 123R is effective as of the beginning of the first annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. Should the Corporation issue employee stock options after January 31, 2006 a charge against earnings would be required as provided by SFAS 123R. The magnitude of the charge would depend upon the number of employee stock options issues, the exercise price of the stock options and the volatility of the share price of the Corporation's common stock on the date the employee stock options are issued. NOTE 11 - SUBSEQUENT EVENT On August 25, 2005, the Company, pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, (the "Agreement"), completed its acquisition of certain assets of Flagship Services, Group, Inc., Flagship Reconstruction Partners, Ltd., Flagship Reconstruction Associates - Commercial, Ltd., and Flagship Reconstruction Associates - Residential, Ltd. ("Flagship"), for $5,250,000 in cash paid at closing, a promissory note for $750,000 at an interest rate of 6% due one-year from the closing, 236,027 shares of the Company's restricted common stock valued at $250,000 ($1.06 per share), a warrant to purchase up to 250,000 shares of the Company's restricted common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 and a warrant to purchase up to 150,000 shares of the Company's restricted common stock at an exercise price of $1.06. The warrants expire five years from the date of closing. The Agreement also includes earn-out provisions over the first eighteen-month period commencing on the closing date, pursuant to which the Company is required to pay 35% of the net earnings of the former Flagship operation in excess of $500,000. The owner of Flagship entered into an eighteen-month employment and non-competition agreement with the Company. 15 ITEM 2.

These forward-looking statements are based on the Corporation's current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry, management's beliefs and certain assumptions made by management. Words such as "anticipates," "expects," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates," "may," and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. There can be no assurance that future developments and actual actions or results affecting the Corporation will be those that the Corporation has anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond the Corporation 's control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the continuing validity of the underlying assumptions and estimates of total forecasted project revenues, costs and profits and project schedules; the outcomes of pending or future litigation, arbitration or other dispute resolution proceedings; the availability of borrowed funds on terms acceptable to the Corporation; the ability to retain certain members of management; the ability to obtain surety bonds to secure the Corporation's performance under certain construction contracts; possible labor disputes or work stoppages within the construction industry; changes in federal and state appropriations for infrastructure projects; possible changes or developments in worldwide or domestic political, social, economic, business, industry, market and regulatory conditions or circumstances; and actions taken or not taken by third parties including the Corporation's customers, suppliers, business partners, and competitors and legislative, regulatory, judicial and other governmental authorities and officials; and other risks and uncertainties discussed under the heading "Risk Factors" in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended January 31, 2005 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Corporation undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws. OVERVIEW We provide environmental and specialty contracting services including asbestos and lead abatement, insulation, microbial remediation, disaster response, loss mitigation and reconstruction, demolition and related services throughout the United States. During the current fiscal quarter and six-month period, the Corporation derived the majority of its revenues from the abatement of asbestos but has broadened its offering of services in recent years to include a number of complementary services which utilize its existing infrastructure and personnel. Cash flows from contracting services are primarily generated from periodic progress billings on large contracts under which the Corporation performs services and single project billings on small short duration projects. The Corporation operates in a complex environment due to the nature of our customers and our projects. Due to the size and nature of many of our contracts, the estimation of overall risk, revenue and cost at completion is complicated and subject to many variables. Depending on the contract, this poses challenges to the Corporation's executive management team in overseeing contract performance and in evaluating the timing of the recognition of revenues and project costs, both initially and when there is a change in project status. Thus, the Corporation's executive management team spends considerable time in evaluating and structuring key contracts, in monitoring project performance, and in assessing the financial impact of many of our contracts. Due to the complexity in the revenue recognition for the Corporation's projects, executive financial management is particularly attentive to developments in individual contracts that may affect the timing and measurement of contract costs and related revenues. The Corporation continues to manage its projects to minimize risk and the financial impact upon the Corporation. More information on risks and the Corporation's efforts to manage risks is available in Item 1 under the caption "Risk Factors" in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended January 31, 2005, as amended, and supplemented elsewhere in this report. 16 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES In general, there have been no significant changes in the Corporation's critical accounting policies since January 31, 2005. For a detailed discussion of these policies, please see Item 7 of the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended January 31, 2005. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2005 During the three months ended July 31, 2005 ("Fiscal 2006"), the Corporation's contract revenues increased by 8% to $16.3 million compared to $15.2 million in the three months ended July 31, 2004 ("Fiscal 2005"). The increase was due an increase in contract activity at our New York, Rock Hill, Los Angeles and Tampa offices as compared to the prior fiscal quarter. The increase was attributable to an increase in volume of work placed under contract and performed by these offices. The Corporation's gross margin increased to $2.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2006 compared to $1.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2005. Gross margin as a percentage of revenue increased to 15.2% for the current quarter from 12.8 % for the prior year quarter. The increase in gross margin of $0.55 million is due to a higher volume of work performed at a greater gross margin percentage. The current fiscal quarter had no negative contract adjustments. The prior fiscal quarter had negative contract adjustments of $0.4 million, due to cost overruns and unexpected conditions, primarily at our New York, Pittsburgh and Seattle offices. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $1.66 million in the current fiscal quarter as compared to $1.52 million in the three months ended July 31, 2004. This increase was due to personnel and salary increases in the current fiscal year as compared to the prior fiscal year and an overall increase in various operating expenses. As a percentage of contract revenues, selling, general and administrative expense remained relatively constant at 10.2% for the current fiscal quarter vs. 10.0% for the prior year fiscal quarter. The Corporation reported income from operations of $0.82 million for the three months ended July 31, 2005 compared to income from operations of $0.42 million for the three months ended July 31, 2004 as a direct result of the factors discussed above. Interest expense increased slightly to $0.10 million in the current quarter as compared to $0.09 million in the same quarter of a year ago as a result of an increase in the prime rate of interest, to which a majority of the Corporations borrowings are tied, which more than offset the decrease in the balance outstanding on the line of credit after the receipt of the approximate $6.4 million net proceeds from the private placement of the Company's securities in early July 2005 which was utilized to reduce the outstanding balance on the line of credit. Interest expense for preferred dividends and accretion of the discount relates to the private placement in July 2005 of $5.5 million of redeemable convertible preferred stock. As the preferred shares are mandatorily redeemable, the actual dividend of $37,000 and the accretion of the discount associated with the preferred stock of $43,000 are required to be reflected as interest expense. During the quarter ended July 31, 2005, the Corporation made a $0.22 million provision for federal income taxes and a $0.06 million provision for state income taxes. During the quarter ended July 31, 2004, the Corporation made no provision for federal income taxes due to the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards for financial reporting purposes and a state income tax provision of $0.025 million. At July 31, 2005 a valuation allowance for deferred taxes of $0.44 million had been provided due to the uncertainty as to the future realization of those deferred income tax assets. While the Company has recently been profitable, the federal net operating loss carryforward was only fully utilized in the quarter ended January 31, 2005 and the Company's operations are subject to a high degree of volatility due to the nature of its business. Management still believes that the allowance is reasonable and will evaluate it prospectively at the end of each quarter SIX MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2005 17 During the six months ended July 31, 2005 ("Fiscal 2006"), the Corporation's contract revenues increased by 17% to $30.3 million compared to $26.0 million in the six months ended July 31, 2004 ("Fiscal 2005"). The increase was due an increase in contract activity at our New York, Tampa and Rock Hill offices as compared to the prior fiscal period. The increase was attributable to an increase in volume of work placed under contract and performed by these offices. The Corporation's gross margin increased to $4.8 million in the half of fiscal 2006 compared to $3.6 million in the first half of fiscal 2005. Gross margin as a percentage of revenue increased to 15.8% for the current six-month period from 14.0% for the prior year period. The increase in gross margin of $1.16 million is due to a higher volume of work performed at a greater gross margin percentage. The current fiscal period had no negative contract adjustments. The prior fiscal period had negative contract adjustments of $0.7 million, due to cost overruns and unexpected conditions, primarily at our New York, Pittsburgh and Los Angeles offices. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $3.4 million in the current fiscal period as compared to $3.0 million in the six months ended July 31, 2004. This increase was due to personnel and salary increases in the current fiscal year as compared to the prior fiscal year, an overall increase in various operating expenses and the inclusion of the PT&L operation, which was acquired effective April 1, 2004. As a percentage of contract revenues, selling, general and administrative expense decreased by 0.4% to 11.2% for the current fiscal period from 11.6% for the prior year fiscal period. The Corporation's six-month period ended July 31, 2004 included a $0.11 million gain from the sale of fixed assets as the Company sold equipment that was currently not being utilized. The Corporation reported income from operations of $1.38 million for the six months ended July 31, 2005 compared to income from operations of $0.72 million for the six months ended July 31, 2004 as a direct result of the factors discussed above. Interest expense increased to $0.20 million in the current period as compared to $0.18 million in the same period of a year ago as a result of an increase in the prime rate of interest, to which a majority of the Corporations borrowings are tied, which more than offset the decrease in the balance outstanding on the line of credit after the receipt of the approximate $6.4 million net proceeds from the private placement of the Company's securities in early July 2005 which was utilized to reduce the outstanding balance on the line of credit. Interest expense for preferred dividends and accretion of the discount relates to the private placement in July 2005 of $5.5 million of redeemable convertible preferred stock. As the preferred shares are mandatorily redeemable, the actual dividend of $37,000 and the accretion of the discount associated with the preferred stock of $43,000 are required to be reflected as interest expense. The Corporation's other income for the six-month period ended July 31, 2005 included a $0.05 million gain from the Company's sale of its 50% interest in the IAQ venture, which had been accounted for under the equity method of accounting. During the six-month period ended July 31, 2005, the Corporation made a $0.38 million provision for federal income taxes and a $0.10 million for state income taxes. During the six months ended July 31, 2004, the Corporation made no provision for federal income taxes due to the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards for financial reporting purposes and a state income tax provision of $0.04 million. At July 31, 2005 a valuation allowance for deferred taxes of $0.44 million had been provided due to the uncertainty as to the future realization of those deferred income tax assets. While the Company has recently been profitable, the federal net operating loss carryforward was only fully utilized in the quarter ended January 31, 2005 and the Company's operations are subject to a high degree of volatility due to the nature of its business. Management still believes that the allowance is reasonable and will evaluate it prospectively at the end of each quarter FINANCIAL CONDITION LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES During the six months ended July 31, 2005, the Corporation's cash decreased by $0.18 million to $0.15 million. 18 The decrease in cash and short-term investments during the first six months of fiscal 2006 is attributable to cash outflows from operations of $1.68 million and cash outflows of $0.54 million associated with investing activities. These cash outflows were partially offset by $2.04 million of cash inflows associated with financing activities. Cash utilized by operating activities totaled $1.68 million in the six months ended July 31, 2005. Cash outflows included, a $3.76 million increase in accounts receivable caused by the significant increase in billings in July 2005, a $0.15 million increase in inventories, a $0.19 million increase in prepaid income taxes, a $0.31 million decrease in current income tax liabilities and a $0.07 million decrease in accrued liabilities related to the timing of payments These cash outflows were partially offset by cash inflows including $0.70 million of net income in the current fiscal period, $0.08 million of preferred stock dividends and accretion of the discount on the related preferred stock which are non-cash in nature as the dividends on the preferred stock accumulate until conversion or maturity, a $0.44 million decrease in costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts, a $0.41 million decrease in other current assets, a $0.69 million increase in accounts payable, a $0.17 million increase in billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts, and $0.35 million of depreciation and amortization. Investing activities cash outflows included $0.56 million for the purchase of property, plant and equipment and the $0.02 million of capital contributions in the IAQ joint venture prior to the sale of its interest by the Company. These cash outflows were partially offset by $0.05 million of proceeds from the sale of the Company's equity investment in the IAQ joint venture. Financing activities cash inflows consisted of $6.44 million from the private placement of the Company's common and convertible preferred stock in July 2005 (which was net of $0.56 million of costs associated with the private placement), $0.24 million of proceeds from a $0.4 million equipment line provided by the Company's bank and $0.05 million from the exercise of employee stock options. These cash inflows were partially offset by $4.4 million for the repayment of debt and insurance premium financing, including a $3.6 million net reduction in the Company's line of credit with the proceeds of the aforementioned private placement of the Company's equity securities in July 2005 and $0.29 million of earnout payments related to the acquisition of businesses acquired in prior years. On August 25, 2005 the Company purchased the operations of Flagship and reborrowed on the line of credit to fund the purchase price payable at closing. At July 31, 2005, the Corporation's backlog totaled $37.5 million ($24.3 million on fixed fee contracts and $13.2 million on time and materials or unit price contracts). During the six months ended July 31, 2004, the Corporation's cash decreased by $0.01 million to $0.03 million. The decrease in cash and short-term investments during the first six months of fiscal 2005 is attributable to cash outflows from operations of $0.08 million and cash outflows of $0.24 million associated with investing activities. These cash outflows were partially offset by $0.31 million of cash inflows associated with financing activities. Cash utilized by operating activities totaled $0.08 million in the six months ended July 31, 2004. Cash outflows included a $2.16 million increase in accounts receivable caused by the significant increase in billings in the second quarter, a $1.4 million increase in costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts and a $0.15 million increase in inventories. These cash outflows were partially offset by cash inflows including $0.48 million of net income in the current fiscal period, a $0.32 million decrease in other current assets, a $1.62 million increase in accounts payable, a $0.88 million increase in billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts, a $0.10 million increase in accrued liabilities related to the timing of payments and $0.34 million of depreciation and amortization. Investing activities cash outflows included $0.33 million for the purchase of property, plant and equipment and the $0.02 million of additional investment in the IAQ joint venture. These cash outflows were partially offset by $0.13 million of proceeds from the sale of fixed assets. Financing activities cash inflows consisted of $0.47 million from the private placement of the Company's common stock (which was net of $0.03 million of costs associated with registering the Company's common stock related to the private placement), $0.75 million of proceeds from debt consisting of net borrowings on the line of credit and 19 $0.12 million from the exercise of employee stock options. These cash inflows were partially offset by $0.88 million for the repayment of debt and insurance premium financing and insurance premium financing and $0.14 million of earnout payments related to the acquisition of businesses acquired in prior years. The Corporation believes funds generated by operations, amounts available under existing credit facilities and external sources of liquidity, such as the issuance of debt and equity instruments, will be sufficient to finance capital expenditures, the settlement of earnout obligations, the settlement of commitments and contingencies (as fully described in Note 10 to the Corporation's consolidated financial statements.) and working capital needs for the foreseeable future. However, there can be no assurance that such funding will be available, as our ability to generate cash flows from operations and our ability to access funding under the revolving credit facilities may be impacted by a variety of business, economic, legislative, financial and other factors which may be outside the Corporation's control. Additionally, while the Corporation currently has significant, uncommitted bonding facilities, primarily to support various commercial provisions in the Corporation's contracts, a termination or reduction of these bonding facilities could result in the utilization of letters of credit in lieu of performance bonds, thereby reducing the Corporation's available capacity under the revolving credit facilities. There can be no assurance that such facilities will be available at reasonable terms to service the Corporation's ordinary course obligations. In January 2005 the Company executed a non-binding letter of intent to purchase a restoration company in the southwestern United States. On August 25, 2005, the Company pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement completed its acquisition of certain assets of Flagship Services, Group, Inc., Flagship Reconstruction Partners, Ltd., Flagship Reconstruction Associates - Commercial, Ltd., and Flagship Reconstruction Associates - Residential, Ltd. ("Flagship"), for $5,250,000 in cash paid at closing, a promissory note for $750,000 at an interest of 6% due one-year from the closing, 236,027 shares of the Company's restricted common stock valued at $250,000 ($1.06 per share), a warrant to purchase up to 250,000 shares of the Company's restricted common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 and a warrant to purchase up to 150,000 shares of the Company's restricted common stock at an exercise price of $1.06. The warrants expire five years from the date of closing. The Agreement also includes earn-out provisions over the first eighteen-month period commencing on the closing date, pursuant to which the Company is required to pay 35% of the net earnings of the former Flagship operation in excess of $500,000. The owner of Flagship entered into an eighteen-month employment and non-competition agreement with the Company. The purchase of Flagship utilized the majority of the funds raised in the July 2005 private placement of the Company's equity securities, which in the period between the closing of the private placement and the purchase of Flagship, had been utilized to reduce the outstanding balance on the Company's line of credit and therefore the related interest costs. ITEM 3. QUANTATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The only market risk, as defined, that the Company is exposed to is interest rate sensitivity. The interest rate on the equipment notes and revolving line of credit fluctuate based upon changes in the prime rate. Each 1% change in the prime rate will result in a $17,000 change in borrowing costs based upon the balance outstanding at July 31, 2005 ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES We maintain disclosure controls and procedures. that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and that such information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief financial officer and chief executive officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures In connection with the year end audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2005, our external auditors notified our management and Audit Committee of the existence of "material weaknesses" in our internal controls relating to changes in the rules associated with the advent of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB"). Specifically our external auditors noted the following: (a) our period-end cut-off procedures were inadequate to ensure that all Company liabilities were reflected in the proper accounting period ; (b) our controls over the documentation and selection of accounting principles were 20 inadequate due to the incomplete documentation relating to the selection and application of applicable accounting policies and (c) our controls over non-routine and non-systematic transactions were not properly documented so that the proper recording of these transactions could be considered likely to be effective. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the material weaknesses cited did not compromise the financial reporting process. Our management has discussed these material weaknesses with the Audit Committee. Our management is working with the Audit Committee to identify and remediate control deficiencies as part of its efforts to complete the documentation and testing of its internal controls over financial reporting as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. This process only recently commenced. Specifically, we are implementing the following measures: (a) we have instituted a new corporate wide cut-off policy including an extension of time of the cut-off period and written confirmation from our branch offices that all liabilities that they are aware of have been properly recorded, (b) we are proceeding with the documentation of all of our accounting policies and the rationale behind the selection of each policy where various alternatives exist and (c) as part of our Sarbanes-Oxley 404 internal control project, we are documenting our controls over non-routine and non-systematic transactions. Our analysis is continuing and we plan to complete the project before the end of the initial assessment-reporting period ending January 31, 2007. Our external auditors for the year ended January 31, 2005 have not confirmed our remediation steps due to their resignation as our auditors as disclosed in our Current Report on Form 8-K dated June 20, 2005 and the selection of new external auditors as disclosed in our Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 13, 2005. After considering the aforementioned, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures have been are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at that reasonable assurance level. There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected or is reasonable likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls systems are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. 21 PART II-- OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1.
