NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2005
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2005 and 2004 were prepared by the Company without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In management’s opinion that all necessary adjustments, which consist primarily of normal recurring adjustments, to the financial statements have been made to present fairly the financial position and results of operations and cash flows. The results of operations for the respective periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for the respective complete years. The Company has previously filed with the SEC an annual report on Form 10-KSB which included audited financial statements for the two years ended December 31, 2004. It is suggested that the financial statements contained in this filing be read in conjunction with the statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s 10-KSB filing.
NOTE 2 - PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Electric Aquagenics Unlimited, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries Equilease, Inc. and Aquagen International, Inc. (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated, if any.
NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN
During the current period, the Company incurred significant losses and a negative cash flow from operations. As a result, at September 30, 2005, the Company had a high level of equity financing transactions and additional financing will be required by the Company to fund its future activities and to support its operations. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain additional financing. Furthermore, there is no assurance that rapid technological changes, changing customer needs and evolving industry standards will enable the Company to introduce new products and services on a continual and timely basis so that profitable operations can be attained. The Company’s ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flows is dependent upon its ability to increase sales and profit margins and control operating expenses. Management plans to mitigate its losses in the near term through the further development and marketing of its trademarks, brand and product offerings.
NOTE 4 - SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURE OF CASH FLOW INFORMATION
For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, the Company paid cash for the following:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2005
NOTE 5 - COMMON STOCK
In February 2005, the Company successfully completed additional private placement offering of $2,975,000 for 850,000 shares of its common stock at $3.50 per share. Under this offering, the Company received proceeds of $2,630,600, net of offering costs of approximately $344,000 plus placement agent warrants of 73,800 shares.
In June 2005, the Company initiated a private placement offering of $7,000,000 for the equivalent of 2,000,000 shares of its common stock at $3.50 per share. The shares were included as part of an investment unit (the “Unit”) consisting of two (2) share of common stock plus one (1) warrant exercisable at $5.50. Each unit is priced at $7.00. As of September 30, 2005, the Company had received proceeds of approximately $2,300,000, net of offering cost of approximately $300,000.
NOTE 6 - SENIOR CONVERTIBLE DEBT
In September 2005, the Company entered into a Senior Convertible Note with a third party in exchange for $3,000,000. Pursuant to the debt agreement, the note accrues interest at the rate of 3% per annum and is due, principal and interest together, on September 16, 2008. This note may be converted prior to the maturity date, and at any time, by the holder at a price per share equal to $3.00 per share, subject to certain other conversion adjustments.
NOTE 7 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In May 2005, the Company entered into a thirteen (13) week radio advertising campaign with ABC Radio Networks to advertise one of its products on a nationally syndicated show. Under the contract, the Company is required to pay $572,000, or $44,000 per week which includes agency commissions of $85,800. As of September 30, 2005, the Company had paid $440,000 on this contract.
In June 2005, the Company entered into an agreement with Tyson Foods, Inc. (“Tyson”) to install an electrolyzed oxidative water (“EOW”) system into Tyson’s poultry processing plant in Tennessee. Under the memorandum of understanding, the Company’s EOW system will be used as a trial for research and development to evaluate the efficacy of EOW in pathogen management on raw poultry products and with the supervision of the USDA/FSIS personnel. The trial will be conducted at no charge to Tyson, but should results be successful, the parties will then undertake to complete a definitive commercial agreement regarding the continued use of the EOW system.
In September 2005, the Company granted an exclusive license and distribution agreement with a third party in exchange for $1,000,000 and future royalty payments. Per the agreement, the licensee was granted the exclusive right to commercialize and exploit the Company’s low-cost, non-toxic electrolyzed oxidative fluids used for cleaning, disinfection, remediation and hydration and to manufacture, distribute and sell the products to certain territories within Central and South America. Royalty payments under the agreement range from 2% - 5% depending on the annual sales volume of the licensee. This agreement automatically renews and shall remain in effect unless sooner terminated by the Company or licensee.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
All forward-looking statements contained herein are deemed by the Company to be covered by and to qualify for the safe harbor protection provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Prospective shareholders should understand that several factors govern whether any forward-looking statement contained herein will be or can be achieved. Any one of those factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected herein. These forward-looking statements include plans and objectives of management for future operations, including plans and objectives relating to the products and the future economic performance of the Company. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions, future business decisions, and the time and money required to successfully complete development projects, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of those assumptions could prove inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance that the results contemplated in any of the forward-looking statements contained herein will be realized. Based on actual experience and business development, the company may alter its marketing, capital expenditure plans or other budgets, which may in turn affect the company’s results of operations. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included therein, the inclusion of any such statement should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the objectives or plans of the company will be achieved.
We are in the business of developing, manufacturing and marketing equipment that uses water electrolysis to create fluids that clean, disinfect, remediate, and hydrate. We also develop, manufacture and market consumer products that support a healthy lifestyle. The fluids generated by equipment that we manufacture are environmentally safe and non toxic and free from harmful residues associated with chemical based disinfecting and cleaning agents. The electrolyzed fluids created by the EOW system (referred to herein sometimes as the “EO Fluids” or “Empowered WaterTM” fluids”) generated by our equipment will replace many of the traditional products used in commercial, industrial and residential disinfecting and cleaning.
Consumer Products
Our consumer products currently consist of Aquagen® oxygen supplement and wellness products sold primarily through the health food and nutraceutical markets, and Perfect Empowered Drinking Water™, a drinking water that we bottle at a newly constructed bottling facility located at our corporate offices, and the Zero Plus Hand Sanitizer. In May 2005, we entered into a thirteen week radio advertising campaign with ABC Radio to advertise our Zero Plus™ Hand Sanitizer product on the nationally syndicated Sean Hannity Show. The advertisements began running at the end of May 2005, and continued through the beginning of September 2005. In connection with the radio advertising, we entered into an arrangement with a local call center to handle radio orders. The Company did not receive enough orders from the radio advertising to merit a renewal of the advertising campaign.
In May 2005, we established an in-house sales department to sell the Aquagen® products to the health and natural food products industries. We contracted with a private company that consults with companies to increase sales in the health and natural food stores, to set up our in-house sales department. We recently hired two employees to operate the sales department, and this in-house sales department is in full operation as of September 30, 2005.
During the third quarter 2005, the Company began to implement a branding change involving our Aquagen® products. Those products will now be branded under the name “Perfect Oxygenated Therapy™ Products.” The proprietary name Aquagen® will remain on the labels and will be described as the “science” behind the “Perfect” brand of oxygenated products. Our other current Aquagen® products will bear similar “Perfect” brand names. The Company determined that it would be more cost effective and efficient to brand all of its consumer products under the same name.
We also plan to expand the market for our “Perfect Oxygenated Therapy” products and to develop other oxygen based personal use products, such as skin care products, periodontal products and a fungicide product.
April 2005, we launched our new bottled drinking water product, known as “Perfect Empowered Drinking WaterTM.” As of September 30, 2005, our Perfect Water product is being sold in approximately 140 grocery stores, including stores owned or operated by large national or regional grocery operators. Our Perfect Empowered Drinking Water™ is also sold in various other outlets, and will be available for retail sale in approximately 200 outlets, including grocery stores, by November 2005. We will continue to expand our market for this product aggressively, and we anticipate entering into additional distribution agreements with owners or operators of multiple outlets during the fourth quarter of 2005. We are pleased with the growing revenues from Perfect Water and anticipate that our drinking water revenues will be a significant portion of our total revenue in the future.
In addition to our existing consumer product line, we intend to continue to develop and market commercial and residential cleaning products, such as a bottled surface cleaning products that clean, protect and disinfect.
EO Products
On September 16, 2005, we entered into an Exclusive License and Distribution Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Water Science, LLC, a Florida limited liability company. Pursuant to the Agreement, Water Science paid to us a license fee of $1 million in exchange for (a) an exclusive license to commercialize and exploit our EO systems and EO Fluids in the Latin America countries of Mexico, Guatemala, Bolivia, Paraguay, Chile, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Brazil, Costa Rica, Suriname, Panama, Colombia, Venezuela, Guyana, French Guyana, Ecuador, Peru, Uruguay, Argentina and Belize (the “Territory”), (b) the exclusive right and license to use our trademarks in connection with the promotion, marketing and sale of our EO technology and products within the Territory, and (c) the appointment of Water Science as our exclusive distributor of our EO systems and attendant technology and products within the Territory.
On September 16, 2005, Water Science also invested $3,000,000 in the Company as convertible senior secured debt. Pursuant to that investment, the Company issued to Water Science a senior secured convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $3 million (the “Note”). The maturity date of the Note is September 16, 2008, and the Note is secured by a senior lien upon all of our assets. The Note is convertible into one million shares of our $0.0001 par value common stock at an initial conversion price of $3.00 per share.
In connection with the issuance of the Note, we granted to Water Science a three year warrant to purchase up to 2 million shares of our $0.0001 par value common stock for a purchase price of $2.76 per share. We also entered into a Registration Rights agreement, whereby we agreed to register shares that underlie the Note and the warrant.
In June 2005, we entered into an agreement with Tyson Foods, Inc. to test our EOW system and EO Fluids in its Shelbyville, Tennessee poultry processing plant. Installation of our EOW system began in July 2005, and as of September 30, 2005, our EOW system equipment was completely installed in Tyson’s Shelbyville processing plant. Initial testing has been favorable, particularly with respect to the use of EO Fluids to kill salmonella on the processed poultry. Testing at the Shelbyville plant is continuing, and we expect testing to be completed by mid December 2005. Once the testing is completed, we will begin the required USDA testing and plant application approval phase for “Online Reprocessing,” a term used in the poultry processing industry relative to governmental processing approvals.

Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with selected financial data and the financial statements and notes to financial statements.
The Company’s total revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 totaled $1,274,442, an increase of 747.3% over the $150,420 in total revenues for the same period in 2004. For the first nine months of 2005, the Company’s total revenues increased to $1,490,789, representing an increase of $1,165,369, or 358.1%, from the $325,420 in total revenues for the same period one year earlier. The increase in revenues in the third quarter of 2005 is attributable primarily to the Company’s receipt of a one time $1,000,000 license fee payment by Water Sciences in exchange for a license of some of the Company’s technology for use and exploitation in certain Latin America countries.
Revenues from product sales increased 82.5% in the third quarter of 2005 when compared to the same period one year earlier, from $150,420 in third quarter of 2004 to $274.442 in the third quarter of 2005. Likewise, revenues from product sales during the first nine months of 2005 increased 50.8% over the revenues from product sales during the same period in 2004, from $325,420 in the first nine months of 2004 to $490,789 in the first nine months of 2005. The increase in revenues from product sales is due primarily to increased sales of the Company’s line of consumer products, particularly drinking water and hand sanitizer. Some of the increase in sales of consumer products can be attributable to the nationally syndicated radio advertising by the Company with respect to its hand sanitizer product. Management has determined that the sales generated by the radio advertising campaign were below anticipated revenues, and the advertising program will not be renewed.
With respect to its product sales, the Company’s cost of goods increased as a percentage of sales from 17.4% in the first quarter of 2004 to 37.9% in the first quarter of 2005. This increase is more a function of the cost of goods being lower than anticipated during the first quarter of 2004 than the cost of goods increasing during 2005.
Research and development expenses incurred in the first three months of 2005 were 395.6% higher than those expenses incurred during the same period one year earlier, having increased from $28,358 in the first quarter of 2004 to $140,552 in the first quarter of 2005. This increase is primarily attributable to the increased research and development that has gone into the design, installation and testing of EOW equipment in Tyson’s Shelbyville poultry processing plant, and in the continued development of new consumer products. It is anticipated that, as the testing is completed at the Shelbyville plant, the research and development expenses will decrease from their level in the third quarter of 2005.
The Company’s general and administrative expenses totaled $1,567,068 during the three months ended September 30, 2005, compared to $940,665 during the same period of 2004. This 66.6% increase in general and administrative expenses is attributable to several factors, primary of which has been the hiring of several management personnel, including senior marketing and technical individuals, as well as the expenses associated with the negotiation and closing of the license and investment transaction with Water Science in September 2005.
Liquidity And Capital Resources
At September 30, 2005, we had cash and cash equivalents of $2,693,766, compared to $382,889 at December 31, 2004. The increase in cash is attributable to the Company’s receipt during the third quarter of 2005 of a $1,000,000 license fee and $3,000,000 in subordinated debt proceeds. In addition, in June 2005, the Company commenced a private placement offering to sell 1,000,000 units to accredited investors. Each unit consisted of two shares of common stock and one warrant to purchase a share of common stock, exercisable through December 31, 2006 at an exercise price of $5.50 per share.

Management recognizes that additional funding will be required to finance growth and to achieve our strategic objectives. Management is actively pursuing additional sources of equity and/or funding. In addition, management is expecting an increase in cash flows through continued increases in revenue.
If we do not raise sufficient funds in the future, we may not be able to fund expansion, take advantage of future opportunities, meet our existing debt obligations or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated requirements. Financing transactions in the future may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. The Company may also consider additional grants of licensing arrangements to allow third parties to develop and sell the Company’s technologies in other parts of the world.
Item 3. Controls and Procedures
Within the ninety (90) day period prior to the date of this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to the Exchange Act Rule 13a-14. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company required to be included in the Company’s periodic SEC filings. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon 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, regardless of how remote.
There have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors which could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date the Company carried out its evaluation.
