June 30, 2004 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2003. The engineering
segment reported a significant increase in sales during the period, while the

including depreciation and amortization, increased $254,100 or 8.2% for the
three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003. The

The Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2004
