has been derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited
interim condensed consolidated financial statements, have been prepared
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in
the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to
those rules and regulations, although the Company believes the disclosures
made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the
opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation
have been included in the condensed consolidated financial statements
herein.

2. The results of operations for the quarter and nine month period ended
September 30, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the
year ending December 31, 1995. The sale of the Company's products and
services is seasonal with revenues generally increasing during the months
of May through August.

3. At September 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994, inventories consisted of

4. On October 26, 1995, the Company purchased certain accounts receivable,
inventory and other operating assets and assumed certain liabilities of
Central Air Conditioning Distributors, Inc., a Winston-Salem, North
Carolina-based wholesale distributor of air conditioning, heating and
refrigeration products operating five branch locations for $9.0 million.
The purchase price is subject to adjustment upon the completion of an audit
of the assets purchased and liabilities assumed. In connection with this
acquisition, the Company assumed liabilities of $2.1 million.

The above acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting. The excess of the aggregate purchase price over the fair value
of the net assets acquired is being amortized on a straight-line basis over
40 years.

5. Certain amounts for 1994 have been reclassified to conform with the 1995

The above table and following narrative include, from their respective dates
of acquisition, the results of operations of Airite, Inc., a Louisiana-based
wholesale distributor of residential central air conditioners acquired by the
Company in February 1995; H.B. Adams, Inc., a wholesale distributor of
residential air conditioners located in central Florida whose business and
assets the Company purchased in March 1995; and Environmental Equipment &
Supplies, Inc., a North Little Rock, Arkansas-based wholesale distributor of air
conditioning and heating equipment whose business and assets the Company
purchased in June 1995.

QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 VS. QUARTER SEPTEMBER 30, 1994

Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1995 increased $16.0
million, or 19%, compared to the same period in 1994. In the distribution
operations, revenues increased $16.5 million, or 24%. Excluding the effect of
acquisitions, revenues for the distribution operations increased $8.0 million,
or 12%. The increase in same store sales during the quarter was fueled by strong
sales of replacement air conditioners, especially in the Company's Florida and
Texas distribution markets. Revenues in the Company's manufacturing operations
decreased $272,000, or 4%, primarily due to lower orders from original equipment
manufacturers (OEMs) due to overstocked customers.

Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 1995 increased $2.9
million, or 16%, as compared to the same period in 1994. Excluding the effect of
acquisitions, gross profit increased $1.0 million, or 5%, primarily as a result
of the aforementioned revenue increases. Gross profit margin in the third
quarter decreased to 21.9% in 1995 from 22.6% in 1994 and, excluding the effect
of acquisitions, decreased to 21.8% in 1995 from 22.6% in 1994. These decreases
are primarily due to the sale of higher cost inventory by the distribution
operations and new product start-up costs in the manufacturing operations.

6 of 10
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended
September 30, 1995 increased $2.0 million, or 15%, compared to the same period
in 1994, primarily due to selling and delivery costs related to increased sales.
Excluding the effect of acquisitions, selling, general and administrative
expenses increased $580,000, or 5%, primarily due to revenue increases. Selling,
general and administrative costs as a percent of revenues decreased to 14.8% in
1995 from 15.3% in 1994 and, excluding the effect of acquisitions, decreased to
14.7% in 1995 from 15.3% in 1994. These decreases were the result of a larger
revenue base over which to spread fixed costs.

Interest expense for the third quarter of 1995 increased $233,000, or 29%,
compared to the same period in 1994, due to higher interest rates and additional
borrowings used to finance acquisitions and increased inventory levels required
by sales growth. Excluding the effect of acquisitions, interest expense
increased $72,000, or 9%, primarily due to slightly higher average monthly
borrowings.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 1995 was
38.5% compared to 40.3% for the same period in the 1994. The decrease is
primarily a result of a proportionately larger share of taxable income generated
in states with higher tax rates during 1994 as compared to 1995.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 VS. NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1994

Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 increased $36.3
million, or 17%, compared to the same period in 1994. In the distribution
operations, revenues increased $35.0 million, or 20%. Excluding the effect of
acquisitions, revenues for the distribution operations increased $17.7 million,
or 10%. This increase in same store sales was mainly due to increased sales of
replacement air conditioners in each of the Company's primary distribution
markets. Revenues in the Company's manufacturing operations increased $134,000,
or 1%, primarily due to new product offerings to aftermarket customers which
have more than offset lower sales to overstocked OEM customers. Revenues in the
personnel services operations increased $1.1 million, or 5%, reflecting higher
demand for temporary help services and greater customer acceptance of new
product offerings such as professional staffing and technical temporaries.

Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 increased $7.9
million, or 16%, as compared to the same period in 1994. Excluding the effect of
acquisitions, gross profit increased $3.9 million, or 8%, primarily as a result
of the aforementioned revenue increases. Gross profit margin for the nine month
period, including and excluding the effect of acquisitions, decreased to 22.6%
in 1995 from 22.8% in 1994. These decreases are primarily due to the sale of
higher cost inventory by the distribution operations and new product start-up
costs in the manufacturing operations.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended
September 30, 1995 increased $5.0 million, or 14%, compared to the same period
in 1994, primarily due to selling and delivery costs related to increased sales.
Excluding the effect of acquisitions, selling, general and administrative
expenses increased $2.1 million, or 6%, also due to revenue increases. Selling,
general and administrative expenses as a percent of revenues, including and
excluding the effect of acquisitions, decreased to 16.4% in 1995 from 16.8% in
1994. These decreases were the result of a larger revenue base over which to
spread fixed costs.

Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 increased
$786,000, or 35%, compared to the same period in 1994, due to higher interest
rates and additional borrowings used to finance acquisitions and increased
inventory levels required by sales growth and stocking requirements in new
branch locations. Excluding the effect of acquisitions, interest expense
increased $444,000, or 19%, primarily due to higher interest rates and higher
average monthly borrowings.




7 of 10
The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 was 38.5%
compared to 39.0% for the same period in the 1994. The decrease is primarily a
result of a proportionately larger share of taxable income generated in states
with higher tax rates during 1994 as compared to 1995.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash and cash equivalents increased to $3.2 million during the third quarter
of 1995. Principal sources of cash were profitable operations, increased
borrowings under revolving credit agreements, and proceeds from the sale of
marketable securities, primarily consisting of tax exempt municipal bonds. The
principal uses of cash were to fund acquisitions, finance capital expenditures,
reduce long-term obligations and fund working capital needs. Inventory purchases
are substantially funded by borrowings under the subsidiaries' revolving credit
agreements.

The working capital position of the Company increased $4.9 million to $45.0
million at September 30, 1995 from $40.1 million at December 31, 1994 due to
higher levels of accounts receivable caused by higher sales volume and improved
cash flow which lowers the amount of inventory financed by revolving credit
facilities. The Company has adequate availability of capital from operations and
revolving credit facilities to fund current operations and anticipated growth,
including expansion in the Company's current and targeted market areas, through
1995. At September 30, 1995, the Company's distribution subsidiaries had
aggregate borrowing commitments from lenders under existing revolving credit
agreements of $62 million, of which $13 million was unused and $9 million
available. Additionally, the Company has $3 million available under an unsecured
revolving credit facility with a bank. Certain of the subsidiaries' revolving
credit agreements contain provisions limiting the payment of dividends to their
shareholders. The Company does not anticipate that these limitations on
dividends will have a material effect on the Company's ability to meet its cash
obligations.

The Company continually evaluates additional acquisitions and other
investment opportunities and its financing needs may change in the future.
Should suitable investment opportunities or working capital needs arise that
would require additional financing, the Company believes that its financial
position and earnings history provide a solid base for obtaining additional
financing resources at competitive rates and terms.
