Below are some of our most recent accomplishments. EAST WTP IMPROVEMENTS MIRAMAR, FL Wharton-Smith completes services to rehab a treatment plant while maintaining constant service! This 6.7MGD facility included replacing the existing lime treatment system with a reverse osmosis system. Work also included wells, concentrate pump station, high service pump station with 3 pumps, building construction modifications, 1.2MG ground storage tank, underground piping including new water main, relocated and new chemical feed and storage systems. POLK CENTRAL REGIONAL WPF POLK COUNTY, FL Wharton-Smith wins ABC Central Florida Excellence in Construction Award for 2020! This 4.0MGD facility included 3,500 LF of buried water piping, 1MG ground storage tank, ozone and GAC treatment equipment, chemical feed and storage systems, and new high service pump station. This project was complex in it’s coordination with the plant staff, other contractors, and critical tie-ins to existing pipelines City of Winter Springs | WTP No. 1 HSPS Suction Piping Replacement | RFP #06-20LR Page 6 SECTION (a)(ii) TEAM QUALIFICATIONS | SIMILAR PROJECT EXPERIENCE Wharton-Smith completed upgrades to this 5.2MGD water treatment plant, that serves as the main source of potable water for the City. The work included installation of a new ionic ion exchange system, a spent regenerate wastewater system, new chemical feed system including sodium hypochlorite and corrosion inhibitor, chemical injection points into 16” piping, new 750KW generator with fuel tank and piping, new pre-engineered metal building, new high service pump station with connections into the existing suction piping and three 150HP pumps and related electrical and I&C work. This project required multiple underground piping tie-ins including a 16”x12” wet tap. The team has challenges with the ion exchange system supplier in performing their contracted services within the agreed-upon schedule, particularly during startup and commissioning. Wharton-Smith notified the supplier of their non-conformance and worked with them to develop a revised schedule that would meet the project requirements.

Due to growth in the area, schedule was absolutely critical for this project. Wharton-Smith faced multiple challenges to the schedule including scope additions with no time extension and unforeseen site conditions, but was still able to plan our work efficiently and complete the project 3 months early. Additionally, this project required demolishment of existing ozone gas piping. This gas is toxic and flammable. It was critical that we plan the work with safety in mind to mitigate any potential dangers. Working with our safety management team and our operations staff, we were able to complete this hazardous work with no injuries or incidents.

Wharton-Smith strives to satisfy our clients and become the “construction group of choice” in all of our construction projects. The way we meet this goal is by careful planning and execution of our work. Wharton-Smith has developed the framework of our management approach, shown below, through each phase of your project. Emergency Planning As Florida’s leading water/wastewater contractor, we are experienced and ready for any emergency action on our job- sites, in our communities and for our clients. There are number of reasons why the City should expect Wharton-Smith to assist in an emergency: 1. We will already be onsite and mobilized with an experienced and knowledgeable crew who know the facility. 2. One of our risk mitigations (see page16) is to perform site investigations and analyze available as-builts. Addition- ally, many on our team have worked on this facility previously. So there will be no learning curve during an emer- gency. 3. We own many of our own equipment, tools and materials, that are located within 15 miles of the jobsite. 4. We have strong relationships with local suppliers and subcontractors. If additional materials or subcontractors are necessary for emergency work, our staff knows who to call to get immediate responses. Our team is available and committed to not only complete the WTP No. 1 HSPS Suction Piping Replacement Project, but to also support the City before, during and after an emergency situation.

Coordination Emergency Plan City of Winter Springs | WTP No. 1 HSPS Suction Piping Replacement | RFP #06-20LR Page 14 SECTION (c)(i) APPROACH Phasing Plan Phase 1 • Locate existing GST#02 effluent line(HSP suction line) as soon as we attain NTP • Identify if there are any issues and come up with phase 1 pipe drawings for approval by EoR and Client • Order material required for the work • Receive material onsite • Excavate, dewater, and safe up the excavation for the GST#02 tie in while the plant remains in service • Prefabricate as much pipe as possible • Request Shut down of GST#02(Expected shut down to be less than 5 days) • Install 14” line stop and cut/drain existing pipe. Utilize FDEP and AWWA bacteriological cleaning methodology for disinfection of potable water piping. A 200ppm solution of chlorine will be utilized for disinfection purposes. If we are not able to isolate the suction line from the HSP side, a second line stop may be required that is not included in the scope. In addition the 14” line that connects to GST#01 will need to be isolated utilizing the existing valving. • Install new DIP pipe and disinfect by spraying a 200ppm solution of chlorine. Please note that this methodology will need to be approved by FDEP as there is the risk of having to perform 2 consecutive days of Bac-Ts prior to receiving permission to place the new header online • Once tie in is complete, tie in the chemical feed line at the temp chlorine injection point • Place system in service with FDEP and Client approval Phase 2 • Locate existing GST#01 effluent line(HSP suction line) as soon as we attain NTP • Identify if there are any issues and come up with phase 2 pipe drawings for approval by EoR and Client • Order material required for the work • Receive material onsite • Excavate, dewater, and safe up the excavation for the GST#01 tie in while the plant remains in service • Prefabricate as much pipe as possible • Request Shut down of GST#01(Expected shut down to be less than 5 days) • The existing 14” WM between the GSTs will need to be isolated during this phase. If a valve is not already installed a line stop will be required that is currently not within the scope of work • Cut existing GST#01 effluent line and install new 20” DIP • Disinfect by spraying a 200ppm solution of chlorine. Please note that this methodology will need to be approved by FDEP as there is the risk of having to perform 2 consecutive days of Bac-Ts prior to receiving permission to place the new header online • Once tie in is complete, route the line to the phase 1 new 20” butterfly valve that was previously installed • Place system in service with FDEP and Client approval City of Winter Springs | WTP No. 1 HSPS Suction Piping Replacement | RFP #06-20LR Page 15 SECTION (c)(i) APPROACH Phasing Plan Phase 3 • Install phase 3 piping • Make sure that sample points are installed at the end of each pipe run for disinfection purposes • Disinfect and attain clearance by FDEP from the 30” BFV to the above ground HSP valves we are providing Phase 4 • Perform all the demo required at the HSP building during phases 1 through 3 and cover the openings with plywood so they are ready • Bring each HSP online individually by connecting the new flanged piping as required. Disinfection method will be pipe swabbing with 200ppm chlorine solution. Keys to Maintaining Facility Operations at All Times We are conscious of the potential impacts that construction activities can have on the ongoing operations of the Winter Springs WTP No. 1. Wharton-Smith understands that this facility is critical in providing potable water to the residents of Winter Springs. Our construction activities will be proactively planned and meticulously executed. We understand your communication protocol and our field management staff will develop a foundation of trust with your engineering and operations staff. There are a number of tools we use in order to facilitate communication and planning into our construction execution.

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2020 9 NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS Wharton-Smith, Inc. (“Wharton-Smith”), a Florida corporation, is a general contractor specializing in commercial, industrial and environmental construction. Construction work is performed primarily under fixed-price contracts. The length of the construction contracts varies but is typically one to two years in duration. The Company provides these construction services in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Louisiana, Alabama, Tennessee, Mississippi, Texas and the Caribbean. Wharton-Smith operates from four offices throughout Florida with its corporate headquarters located in Sanford, Florida. Wharton- Smith also has offices in Charlotte, North Carolina; Gulfport, Mississippi; Houston, Texas; and Baton Rouge, Louisiana; which are the managing locations for the operations in these states. Wharton-Smith International, LLC (“Wharton-Smith International”) provides contractor services for contracts in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Wharton-Smith Cayman, Ltd (“Wharton-Smith Cayman”) provides subcontract services related to the installation of underground utilities. NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements included the consolidated accounts of Wharton-Smith, Wharton-Smith International and Wharton-Smith Cayman (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. Wharton-Smith Cayman had no assets, liabilities or equity at March 31, 2020, and did not have any activity during the year ended March 31, 2020. USE OF ESTIMATES Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Although management believes the estimates that have been used are reasonable, actual results could vary from the estimates that were used. Management periodically evaluates for continued reasonableness. CONFIDENTIAL WHARTON-SMITH, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2020 10 NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) USE OF ESTIMATES (CONTINUED) Appropriate adjustments, if any, to the estimates used are adjusted prospectively based upon periodic evaluation. It is reasonably possible that changes may occur in the near term that would affect management’s estimates with respect to the revenue recognition on uncompleted contracts and estimates of costs to complete. BALANCE SHEET CLASSIFICATIONS The Company includes in current assets and liabilities, retainage receivable and payable under construction contracts which may extend beyond one year. A one-year time period is used as the basis for classifying all other current assets and liabilities. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS AND CREDIT RISK For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all cash accounts that are not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties and have a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase as cash and cash equivalents in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The Company had deposits in financial institutions that maintained Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) deposit insurance limiting coverage to $250,000 per financial institution. At times, balances held at a financial institution may exceed $250,000, which represents a credit risk to the Company. The Company believes that its cash accounts are held with high quality financial institutions which limits its risks. MARKETABLE SECURITIES The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (ASU 2016-01) with a date of initial application of April 1, 2019. As a result, the Company has updated its accounting policy for investments to recognize the cumulative effect adjustment to the consolidated balance sheet as of April 1, 2019, reclassifying the accumulated other comprehensive income of $1,519,617 into retained earnings. Under ASU 2016-01, realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in earnings on the accompanying consolidated statement of income. CONFIDENTIAL WHARTON-SMITH, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2020 11 NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) MARKETABLE SECURITIES (CONTINUED) Marketable securities consist of mutual funds - fixed income, equities - other and debt securities - fixed income. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Realized and unrealized gains and losses from security transactions are reported on the average cost method. Investments are considered impaired when a decline in fair value is judged to be other-than-temporary. The Company employs a systematic methodology that considers available quantitative and qualitative evidence in evaluating potential impairment of their investments. If the cost of an investment exceeds its fair value, the Company evaluates, among other factors, general market conditions, the duration and extent to which the fair value is less than cost, and their intent and ability to hold the investment. The Company considers specific adverse conditions related to the financial health of and business outlook for the investee, including industry and sector performance, changes in technology, operational and financing cash flow factors and rating agency actions. Once a decline in fair value is determined to be other-than-temporary, an impairment charge is recorded in the current earnings and a new cost basis in the investment is established. There were no other- than-temporary impairments of investments for the year ended March 31, 2020. CONTRACTS RECEIVABLE Contract receivables are recorded when invoices are issued and are presented in the consolidated balance sheet based on contracted prices reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts, if an allowance is determined necessary by management. The allowance for doubtful accounts is estimated based on the Company's historical losses, the existing economic conditions in the industry and the financial stability of its customers. Contract receivables are written off against the allowance when they are determined to be uncollectible. At March 31, 2020, management has determined that all contract receivables are fully collectible and there have been no amounts recorded for bad debt expense for the year ended March 31, 2020. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from 5 to 39 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the improvements’ useful life or the remaining term of the lease. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. For assets sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the accounts, and any related gain or loss is reflected in income for the period. Depreciation and amortization expense for the year ended March 31, 2020, amounted to approximately $1,006,000. CONFIDENTIAL WHARTON-SMITH, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2020 12 NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) GOODWILL Goodwill represents the excess of consideration paid over the fair value of net assets acquired in business acquisitions. The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment on an annual basis and when a triggering event occurs that indicates that the fair value of the entity may be below its carrying amount. When the Company evaluates for impairment, the Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether the quantitative impairment test is necessary. If that qualitative assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired, the Company performs the quantitative test to compare the entity’s fair value with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the qualitative assessment indicates that it is not more likely than not that goodwill is impaired, further testing is unnecessary. The goodwill impairment loss, if any, represents the excess of the carrying amount of the entity over its fair value. There were no impairment during the year ended March 31, 2020. CASH SURRENDER VALUE OF LIFE INSURANCE POLICIES The Company maintains life insurance policies on key executives, which are recorded at their cash surrender value as determined by the insurance carrier, offset by any loans taken against the policies. There were no loans taken out against the policies as of March 31, 2020. As of March 31, 2020, the cash surrender value of life insurance policies was approximately $289,000. EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENTS Investee companies that are not consolidated, but over which the Company exercises significant influence, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Whether or not the Company exercises significant influence with respect to an investee depends on an evaluation of several factors including, among others, representation on the investee company’s board of directors and ownership level. Under the equity method of accounting, an investee company’s accounts are not reflected within the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of income. However, the Company’s share of the earnings or losses of the investee company is reflected in the caption “gain on equity method investments” in the consolidated statement of income. When the Company’s carrying value in an equity method investee company is reduced to zero, no further losses are recorded in the Company’s financial statements unless the Company has guaranteed the obligations of the investee company or has committed additional funding to finance the investee company. When the investee company subsequently reports income, the Company will not record its share of such income until it equals the amount of its share of losses not previously recognized. CONFIDENTIAL WHARTON-SMITH, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2020 13 NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED) The Company regularly monitors and evaluates the fair value of its equity method investments. If events and circumstances indicate that a decline in the fair value of these investments has occurred and is other than temporary, the Company will record a related charge in equity in earnings of investees in its consolidated statement of income. The Company has not experienced a decline in the fair value of its equity method investments during the year ended March 31, 2020. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, contracts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable approximate their fair values due to their short term nature, they are receivable or payable upon demand, or the interest rates paid approximate current market rates. However, considerable judgment is involved in making fair value determinations, and current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein. Fair value is defined as the exit price, or the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. The guidance also establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the factors market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. The guidance establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. CONFIDENTIAL WHARTON-SMITH, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2020 14 NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (CONTINUED) Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs. Disclosure about fair values is based on pertinent information available to management as of March 31, 2020. Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the fair value amounts, current estimates of fair value presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition of the financial instruments. The following tables set forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s assets at fair value as of March 31, 2020: Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Cash surrender value of life insurance policies --$ 288,573$ --$ 288,573$ Marketable securities: Mutual funds-fixed income 9,080,920 -- -- 9,080,920 Equities-other 12,556,735 -- -- 12,556,735 Debt securities-fixed income 8,409,680 -- -- 8,409,680 Deferred compensation plan investments-life insurance -- 6,463,266 -- 6,463,266 Total 30,047,335$ 6,751,839$ --$ 36,799,174$ Cash surrender value of life insurance policies are based on current cash surrender values as quoted by insurance carriers. Marketable securities are valued at quoted prices reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded. Deferred compensation plan investments - life insurance are based on the life insurance company separate accounts. Each separate account invests in an underlying mutual fund. The fair value of the mutual fund is publicly quoted and is used in determining the daily unit value of the investment, which is not publicly quoted. CONFIDENTIAL WHARTON-SMITH, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2020 15 NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (CONTINUED) The Company had no significant measurements of assets or liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis subsequent to their initial recognition. IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment when circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. For assets that are held and used, an impairment is recognized when the estimated undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset or group of assets is less than their carrying value. If impairment exists, an adjustment is made to write the asset down to its fair value, and a loss is recorded as the difference between the carrying value and fair value. Fair values are determined based on quoted market values, discounted cash flows or internal and external appraisal, as applicable. Assets to be disposed are carried at the lower of carrying value or estimated net realizable value. No impairment losses have been recognized for the year ended March 31, 2020. TREASURY STOCK Treasury stock is recorded using the cost method, in which the reacquisition cost of any outstanding shares not retired at the end of an accounting period is reflected as an unallocated reduction of stockholders’ equity. Issuance of treasury stock is recorded on the first-in, first- out method in which the cost of the treasury stock longest held by the Company are issued first, and any excess proceeds from the issuance are recorded as additional paid-in capital. ADVERTISING COSTS Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Total advertising costs for the year ended March 31, 2020, totaled approximately $302,000 and are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statement of income. RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS The Company maintains a partially self-insured health insurance program and a partially self- insured workers compensation program which both have a maximum claim amount per each enrolled employee and a total claims aggregate cap. No claims were accrued for as of March 31, 2020, under either program. CONFIDENTIAL WHARTON-SMITH, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2020 16 NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) INCOME TAXES The Company recognizes revenues from long-term construction contracts over time for financial statement purposes and under the tax percentage-of-completion method for income tax purposes. The Company has adopted the accounting standard for uncertainty in income taxes. The standard clarifies the accounting, presentation and disclosure of uncertain tax positions in an entity’s financial statements. It prescribes a threshold that a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Management has evaluated the Company’s tax positions and concluded that no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the consolidated financial statements have been taken. Therefore, no provision or liability for income taxes related to uncertain tax positions has been included in the consolidated financial statements. It is the policy of the Company to recognize potential interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, in current income tax expense. REVENUE AND COST RECOGNITION The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606) with a date of initial application of April 1, 2019. As a result, the Company has updated its accounting policy for revenue recognition to reflect the new standard. The Company applied ASC 606 using the modified retrospective method, applying the guidance to contracts with customers that were not substantially complete as of April 1, 2019. The results for reporting periods beginning after April 1, 2019 are presented under ASC 606. For contracts which were modified before the adoption date, the Company has not restated the contract for those modifications. Instead, the Company reflected the aggregate effect of all modifications when identifying the satisfied and unsatisfied performance obligations, determining the transaction price and allocating the transaction price, if necessary. The cumulative effect of initially applying the new revenue standard would be applied as an adjustment to the opening balance of stockholders’ equity. The Company has analyzed this effect and found the adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on its financial statements and its recognition is consistent with the historical accounting policies. CONFIDENTIAL WHARTON-SMITH, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2020 17 NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) REVENUE AND COST RECOGNITION (CONTINUED) Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company only continues with the five-step model when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. The Company does not collect sales, value-add and other taxes collected on behalf of third parties. Contract revenues are primarily derived from fixed-price construction contracts. The Company has determined that these construction contracts each provide a distinct service and, therefore, qualify as one performance obligation as the promise to transfer the individual goods or services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts. Revenue is recognized over time, because of the continuous transfer of control to the customer as work is performed at the customer’s site, and, therefore, the customer controls the asset as it is being constructed. The cost-to-cost measure of progress continues to best depict the transfer of control of assets to the customer, which occurs as costs are incurred. Revenues from time-and-material contracts, if any, are billed to customers as work is performed. The Company determined that time and material contracts cover a single performance obligation, with transfer of control continuously as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits. Therefore, revenue for time and material contracts is also considered to be recognized over time. CONFIDENTIAL WHARTON-SMITH, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2020 18 NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) REVENUE AND COST RECOGNITION (CONTINUED) Cost of revenues earned include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs, and depreciation costs. The cost of uninstalled materials or equipment are generally excluded from the recognition of gross profit as such costs are not considered to be a measure of progress. Costs to fulfill a contract that are incurred prior to substantive work beginning are capitalized as incurred and amortized over the expected duration of the contract. As of March 31, 2020, the Company mobilization and bond costs were not material to these financial statements. General and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Certain construction contracts include retention provisions to provide customers assurance that the Company will perform in accordance with the contract terms and, therefore, are not considered a financing benefit. The balances billed but not paid by customers pursuant to these provisions generally become due upon completion and acceptance of the project by the customer. The Company has determined that there are no financing components included in construction contracts as of March 31, 2020. CONTRACT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES The timing of revenue recognition, billings, and cash collections results in billed contracts receivable, retainage receivable, and costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts (contract assets) and accrued loss on uncompleted contracts and billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts (contract liabilities) on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The contract asset, “costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts” represents revenues recognized in excess of amounts billed. The contract liability, “billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts,” represents billings in excess of revenues recognized. The following table provides information about receivables, contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers as of March 31, 2020: Contracts retainage receivable, conditional (contract asset)26,833,951$ Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncomplete contracts (contract asset)3,552,219$ Accrued loss on uncompleted contracts (contract liability)69,658$ Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncomplete contracts (contract liability)46,784,201$ CONFIDENTIAL WHARTON-SMITH, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2020 19 NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) CONTRACT ESTIMATES Accounting for long-term contracts involves the use of techniques to estimate total contract revenues and costs. Transaction price for contracts may include variable consideration, which includes increases and decreases to transaction price for approved change orders, claims, and other contract provisions. The Company includes variable consideration in the estimated transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur or when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. The estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in transaction price are based largely on an assessment of the anticipated performance and all information (historic, current and forecasted) that is reasonably available to the Company. The effect of variable consideration on the transaction price of a performance obligation is recognized as an adjustment to revenue on a cumulative catch-up basis. To the extent unapproved change orders and claims reflected in transaction price are not resolved in the Company’s favor, or to the extent other contract provisions reflected in the transaction price are not earned, there could be reductions in or reversals of previously recognized revenue. No adjustment on any one contract was material to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2020. TRANSACTION PRICE ALLOCATED TO THE REMAINING PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS As of March 31, 2020, the Company had approximately $1,144,000,000 of estimated revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially satisfied). QUALIFIED EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS The Company sponsors a defined contribution employee benefit plan (the “Plan”) under section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code for employees meeting certain age and service requirements.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS Except as described below, the Company has considered all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe the adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial statements. In January 2016, the FASB has issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (ASU 2016- 02) requires that a lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the balance sheet a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. In June 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-05, Deferral of the Effective Date, which amended the effective date to reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021 for nonpublic reporting entities. Management is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2016-02 will have on the consolidated financial statements. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS These consolidated financial statements have been updated for subsequent events occurring through July 8, 2020, which is the date these consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.

While there could ultimately be a material impact on operations and liquidity of the Company, at the time of issuance, the impact could not be determined.
