In the opinion of management, all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-months and six-months ended March 31, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended September 30, 2008.

Note 2 – Marketable Securities

Marketable securities are categorized as trading securities and stated at market value. Market value is determined using the quoted closing or latest bid prices. Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined by specific identification and are recognized as incurred in the statement of income. Net unrealized gains and losses are reported in the statement of income and represent the change in the market value of investment holdings during the period. At March 31, 2008, Marketable securities consisted of $46.6 in municipal bonds, $.1 in money market funds, and $11.2 in equity stocks.

Note 4 – Earnings Per Share Data

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods indicated.

Note 5 – Comprehensive Income

The total comprehensive income for the three-months and six-months ended March 31, 2008 was $1,380 and $14,450, respectively. The total comprehensive income for the three-months and six-months ended March 31, 2007 was $10,502 and $11,982, respectively. Total comprehensive income differs from net income due to gains and losses resulting from foreign currency translation, which are reflected separately in the shareholders’ equity section of the balance sheet under the caption “Accumulated other comprehensive loss.” Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in income.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2006, the Company sold land and buildings for $5,481 resulting in a loss of $1,633 after an adjustment of $1,905 for the cumulative translation adjustment related to the assets sold.

Note 6 – Income From Investees

The Company owns a 45% interest in Carbontronics LLC and a 25% interest in Carbontronics Fuels LLC and Carbontronics II, LLC. These interests were earned as part of value of risk on contracts to build four synthetic fuel production plants during 1998. The Company has no basis in these equity investments or requirement to provide future funding. The operations of Carbontronics LLC consist of the receipt of contingent payments from the sales of the plants and the distribution thereof to its members. Carbontronics LLC has no other significant operations or assets. The operations of Carbontronics II, LLC consist of the receipt of royalty payments from the plants and the distribution thereof to its members. Carbontronics II, LLC has no other significant operations or assets. Any income arising from these investments is dependent upon tax credits (adjusted for operating losses at the fuel plants) being generated as a result of synthetic fuel production, which will be recorded as received. The Company received no distributions in the quarter ended March 31, 2008. For the quarter ended December 31, 2007, the Company received $15,625 in distributions. The Company received distributions of $3,285 in the quarter ended December 31, 2006 and $11,887 in the quarter ended March 31, 2007. These distributions are subject to state and Federal income taxes.

The synthetic fuel tax credit legislation expired at the end of calendar year 2007. Consequently, the four synthetic fuel plants are being decommissioned. The plants are in process of being sold or transferred to site owners in exchange for a release of all contracted liabilities related to the removal of plants from the sites. The administrative partner has informed the Company that there will be no operations in calendar 2008 and the partnership affairs will be finalized in 2008. It is not possible to predict the amount, if any, of final distributions from the partnerships upon the final disposition and winding-up of operations.

Results of Operations

Net sales for the quarters ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 were $24.6 million and $26.5 million, respectively. Domestic sales during the second quarter of fiscal 2008 decreased $1.2 million from year ago levels. Domestic sales remained seasonally high although slightly lower than the prior year’s quarter. Foreign sales decreased $.7 million from the prior year.

Net sales for the six-months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 were $42.9 million and $38.9 million, respectively, an increase of 10%. Domestic sales during the first six-months of fiscal 2008 increased $4.6 million from year ago levels. Domestic sales were higher than the prior year’s due to the general strength in the road-building industry. Foreign sales decreased .6 million from the prior year.

Our revenues are concentrated in the asphalt-related business and subject to a seasonal slow-down during the third and fourth quarters of the calendar year.

Gross margins as a percent of net sales decreased to 28% from 29% from the prior year three-month period. Gross margins as a percent of net sales was 26% for the six-months ended March 31, 2008, and 28% for the six-months ended March 31, 2007. The decrease in margins is a result of increased manufacturing costs related to facilities improvement and maintenance.

Selling and administrative expense decreased $165 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 and $334 for the six-months ended March 31, 2008 due to higher selling costs offset by lower legal costs.

We own a 45% interest in Carbontronics LLC and a 25% interest in Carbontronics Fuels LLC and Carbontronics II LLC. These interests were earned as part of value of risk on contracts to build four synthetic fuel production plants during 1998. We have no basis in these equity investments or requirement to provide future funding. Any income arising from these investments is dependent upon tax credits (adjusted for operating losses at the fuel plants) being generated as a result of synthetic fuel production, which will be recorded as received. The Company received no distributions in the quarter ended March 31, 2008. For the quarter ended December 31, 2007, the Company received $15,625. The Company received distributions of $3,285 in the quarter ended December 31, 2006 and $11,887 in the quarter ended March 31, 2007. These distributions are subject to state and Federal income taxes.

The change in the value of marketable securities is a result of net realized and unrealized gains and losses during the period. Also the cost basis of marketable securities fluctuates as excess cash is invested or securities sold to fund operations and pay income taxes. As of March 31, 2008 and September 30, 2007 the cost basis of marketable securities was $49 million and $42 million, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2008 and for the six months ended March 31, 2008, the change in value of our marketable securities was a loss of $1,358 and $865, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2007 and the six months ended March 31, 2007, the change in value of our marketable securities was a gain of $471 and $2,610, respectively.

Included in other income for the six months ended March 31, 2008 was the receipt of $4,100 in resolution of an outstanding claim against a former service provider less related legal costs of $700. The terms of the settlement are confidential and we do not expect any further collections or expenses related to this matter. During the six months ended December 31, 2006, we sold land and buildings for $5,481 resulting in a loss of $1,633 after an adjustment of $1,905 for the cumulative translation adjustment related to the assets sold.

Income tax expense varies based on the pre-tax income. Deferred taxes changed primarily due to the income from investees becoming taxable in the current year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We entered into a Revolving Credit and Security Agreement with PNC Bank, N.A. The Agreement established a three year revolving $20 million credit facility and was renewed through July 31, 2009. The facility provides for advances based on accounts receivable, inventory and real estate. The facility includes a $2 million limit on letters of credit. At March 31, 2008, we had $.8 million of letters of credit outstanding. The interest rate at March 31, 2008, is at LIBOR plus 2.00% and subject to change based upon the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. We are required to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.1:1. There are no required repayments as long as there are no defaults and there is adequate eligible collateral. Substantially all of our assets are pledged as security under the Agreement. We had no long term debt outstanding at March 31, 2008 or 2007.

As of March 31, 2008, we had $3.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, and $57.9 million in marketable securities. The marketable securities are invested in stocks and bonds through a professional investment advisor. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market and credit. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of securities, it is possible that changes in these risk factors could have an adverse material impact on our results of operations. The securities may be liquidated at any time into cash and cash equivalents

Inventory and customer deposits increased due to the timing of the completion and delivery of major contracts. In addition accumulated costs on these contracts, net of progress payments, and estimated earnings are included in inventory. Accrued expenses decreased due to payments for legal and tradeshow costs. Income taxes payable increased due to the increase in taxable income and the movement from deferred taxes related to the timing of taxes due on income from investees.

Seasonality

The Company is concentrated in the asphalt-related business and is subject to a seasonal slow-down during the third and fourth quarters of the calendar year. Traditionally, our customers do not purchase new equipment for shipment during the summer and fall months to avoid disrupting their peak season for highway construction and repair work. This slow-down often results in lower reported sales and earnings and or losses during the first and fourth quarters of our fiscal year ended September 30.

Forward-Looking Information

This Report Form 10-Q 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 our expectations and beliefs, including, but not limited to, statements concerning gross margins, sales of our products and future financing plans. These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, certain of which are beyond our control. Actual results may differ materially depending on a variety of important factors, including the financial condition of our customers, changes in the economic and competitive environments and demand for our products.

Table of Contents

For information concerning these factors and related matters, see the following sections of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2007: (a) “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A and (b) “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Position and Results of Operations” in Part II, Item 7. However, other factors besides those referenced could adversely affect our results, and you should not consider any such list of factors to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties. Any forward-looking statements made by us herein speak as of the date of this Report. We do not undertake to update any forward-looking statement, except as required by law.

Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and Assumptions

We believe the following discussion addresses our most critical accounting policies, which are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Accounting policies, in addition to the critical accounting policies referenced below, are presented in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statement included in our Annual Report on form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2007, “Accounting Policies.”

Estimates and Assumptions

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, we use certain estimates and assumptions that may affect reported amounts and disclosures. Estimates and assumptions are used, among other places, when accounting for certain revenue (e.g. contract accounting), expense, and asset and liability valuations. We believe that the estimates and assumptions made in preparing the consolidated financial statements are reasonable, but are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. Assumptions may be incomplete or inaccurate and unanticipated events may occur. We are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ from estimated results.

Revenues

Revenues from contracts for the design and manufacture of certain custom equipment are recognized under the percentage-of-completion method. Revenues from all other sales are recorded as the products are shipped or service is performed.

The percentage-of-completion method of accounting for long term contracts recognizes revenue in proportion to actual labor costs incurred as compared with total estimated labor costs expected to be incurred during the entire contract. All selling, general and administrative expenses are charged to operations as incurred. Provision is made for any anticipated contract losses in the period that the loss becomes evident.

Investment in Unconsolidated Investees

As of September 30, 2007, 2006, and 2005, we own a 45% interest in Carbontronics LLC and a 25% interest in Carbontronics Fuels LLC and Carbontronics II LLC. These interests were obtained as part of contracts to build four synthetic fuel production plants during 1998. We have no basis in these equity investments or requirement to provide future funding. Any income arising from these investments is dependent upon tax credits (adjusted for operating losses at the fuel plants) being generated as a result of synthetic fuel production, which will be recorded as received. The synthetic fuel tax credit legislation expired at the end of calendar year 2007.

The Company operates manufacturing facilities and sales offices principally located in the United States and the United Kingdom. The Company is subject to business risks inherent in non-U.S. activities, including political and economic uncertainty, import and export limitations, and market risk related to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The Company’s principal currency exposure against the U.S. dollar is the British pound. Periodically, the Company will use derivative financial instruments consisting primarily of interest rate hedge agreements to manage exposures to interest rate changes. The Company’s objective in managing its exposure to changes in interest rates on its variable rate debt is to limit their impact on earnings and cash flow and reduce its overall borrowing costs.

At March 31, 2008, the Company had no debt outstanding. Under the Revolving Credit and Security Agreement, substantially all of the Company’s borrowings will bear interest at variable rates based upon the LIBOR.

The Company’s marketable securities are invested in stocks, municipal bonds, and money market funds through a professional investment advisor. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market and credit. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of securities, it is possible that changes in these risk factors could have an adverse material impact on the Company’s results of operations or equity.

The Company’s sensitivity analysis for interest rate risk excludes accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities because of the short-term maturity of such instruments. The analysis does not consider the effect on other variables such as changes in sales volumes or management’s actions with respect to levels of capital expenditures, future acquisitions or planned divestures, all of which could be significantly influenced by changes in interest rates.

Not applicable.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-14(c) promulgated under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on their evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal accounting officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that material information required to be disclosed is included in the reports that it files with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or, to the knowledge of the management of the Company, in other factors that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report.

The Company is a non-accelerated filer and is not required to comply with requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 until its annual report for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2008.
