NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

1.	Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 have been prepared by us without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of June 30, 2008 and 2007, and for the periods then ended, have been made. Those adjustments consist of normal and recurring adjustments. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2007, has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet as of that date.

Certain information and note disclosures normally included in our annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with a reading of the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

2.	Supplemental Cash Flow Information

Cash paid for interest for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, was $2,998 and $269, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company had non-cash transactions related to share based payments covered by FAS 123R. These transactions are described in greater detail in Note 4.

3.	Stockholders’ Equity

During the six months ended June 30, 2007, we issued 2,608,698 restricted shares of common stock and received net proceeds of $6,000,000 in an exempt offering under Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933. In connection with this offering, we also issued warrants enabling the holders to purchase 1,304,353 shares of our common stock at a price of $2.50 per share through December 2008. We also issued 302,244 shares of common stock and received proceeds of $297,474 in connection with the exercise of stock options during the six months ended June 30, 2007.

In the six months ended June 30, 2008, we issued 150,000 shares of common stock and received proceeds of $56,250 in connection with the exercise of stock options

4.	Share-Based Payments

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, which requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements based on the provisions of SFAS 123 issued in 1995.

The Company recorded $320,372 in compensation expense in the period ended June 30, 2008, related to options issued under its stock-based incentive compensation plans. This includes expense related to both options issued in the current year and options issued in prior years for which the requisite service period for those options includes the current year. The fair value of these options was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Information related to the assumptions used in this model is set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007. For options issued in 2008, the same assumptions were used except that risk free interest rates ranging from 1.74% to 3.13% were used and an annualized volatility rate of approximately 75% was used. The period ended June 30, 2008 also includes $24,916 of expense related to restricted stock provided to non-employee Directors of the Company as compensation.

The Company recorded $282,576 in compensation expense in the period ended June 30, 2007, related to options issued under its stock-based incentive compensation plans.

5.	Contingencies

Litigation

The Company is a defendant in minor lawsuits described in greater detail in its 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company expects any potential eventual payment to have no material affect on the financial statements.

Canon Litigation

In April 2005, we filed suit against the Japanese camera and copier manufacturer Canon, Inc., and its wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary Canon USA, Inc., in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas, Austin Division, seeking a declaratory judgment that new SED color television products being developed and manufactured by a Canon/Toshiba joint venture are not covered under a non-exclusive 1999 patent license agreement that we granted to Canon. We asserted that the Canon/Toshiba joint-venture – SED, Inc. – was not a licensed party under that agreement. The original complaint asserted additional claims related to whether the Canon/Toshiba joint venture’s television panels constituted excluded products under the 1999 license, as well as breach of covenant of good faith and fair dealing, tortious interference and a Lanham Act violation by Canon. In the fall of 2005, Canon moved to dismiss Canon U.S.A. from the litigation, and moved to dismiss several of the counts asserted. The court denied the motion, in part, by ruling that Canon U.S.A. was an appropriate defendant and refusing to dismiss our claims for breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing. Our tortious interference and Lanham Act claims were dismissed, without prejudice.

After initial discovery, in April 2006, we amended the complaint to drop one count related to the definition of excluded products in the 1999 license, and add two counts for fraudulent inducement and fraudulent non-disclosure related to events and representations made during our negotiations on the license, and leading up to and following the formation by Canon and Toshiba of their joint venture effort, including Canon’s failure to disclose an ongoing relationship with Toshiba and misrepresentations made to us about the joint venture’s structure and operation. Canon moved to dismiss the fraud claims, and the Court denied Canon’s motion in May 2006. Discovery was completed in August 2006. Upon completion of discovery, Canon filed a motion for partial summary judgment seeking to dismiss the claim that SED is not a licensed party under the agreement. Canon did not file a motion for summary judgment seeking to dismiss the other claims. In November 2006, the Court denied Canon’s partial motion for summary judgment, describing SED, Inc. as a “corporate fiction designed for the sole purpose of evading Canon’s contractual obligations”.

In January 2007, Canon filed another motion for partial summary judgment seeking a declaration that a reconstituted SED, Inc. which is purportedly owned 100% by Canon but which still involved numerous reciprocal agreements with Toshiba, would be considered a Canon subsidiary. At the same time, we filed a motion for partial summary judgment, seeking the Court’s affirmation of our termination of the license agreement due to Canon’s breach of contract in 2004. On February 22, 2007, the Court issued a ruling denying Canon’s motion and granting our motion for partial summary judgment, ruling our termination of the contract effective December 1, 2006 to be valid.

A trial on the case began on April 30, 2007 and a final judgment was entered in the case in May 2007. The final judgment reaffirmed Canon’s material breach of the patent license, while awarding no additional damages. Both parties have filed appeals related to the litigation. All appeal briefs and responses have been filed with the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals and oral arguments in the case were held on June 4, 2008. In July 2008, the Appeals Court reversed the District Court’s ruling related to our termination of the contract and reinstated Canon’s non-exclusive license. The appeals court also affirmed the District Court’s ruling related our appeal of the District Court’s exclusion of certain evidence at the time of trial.

Keesmann Litigation

In June 2008 we settled the litigation that was in process with Mr. Till Keesmann and there is no longer any contingent liability associated with that litigation.

8.	Subsequent Events

In July 2008, we entered into a transaction with IP Verwertungs GmbH (“IPV”) related to our license agreement with Mr. Till Keesmann. In connection with this agreement, we received $1.2 million in July 2008. An additional $200,000 will be placed in escrow by IPV and will be released at a future date - either to us, or back to IPV, depending on licensing activity under the Keesmann license. In exchange for its payment, IPV will receive a portion of the royalties received as a result of Keesmann sublicenses. Initially, IPV will receive 25% of our portion of the royalties received from sublicenses. That percentage will increase to 50% once total royalties related to the Keesmann patents of approximately $5.0 million have been generated.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following is management’s discussion and analysis of certain significant factors that have affected our financial position and operating results during the periods included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements that we believe are within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which are intended to be covered by the safe harbors created by such acts. For this purpose, any statements that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements, including the statements under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" regarding our strategy, future operations, future expectations or future estimates, financial position and objectives of management. Those statements in this Form 10-Q containing the words "believes," "anticipates," "plans," "expects" and similar expressions constitute forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions relating to our operations, results of operations, competitive factors, shifts in market demand and other risks and uncertainties.

Although we believe that the assumptions underlying our forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate and actual results may differ from those indicated by the forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-Q. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-Q, you should not consider the inclusion of such information as a representation by us or anyone else that we will achieve such results. Moreover, we assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting such forward-looking statements.

Six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007

OVERVIEW

We are primarily a nanotechnology company engaged in the development of proofs of concepts of products and materials , and the performance of services based principally on our intellectual property. During all periods presented, our primary revenues were earned as a result of reimbursed research expenditures at our Applied Nanotech, Inc. (“ANI”) subsidiary. As more fully discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, we expect to incur additional research and development expenses throughout 2008 in developing our technology. We are focused on licensing our technology and obtaining sufficient revenue to cover our ongoing research expenditures.

OUTLOOK

We expect our present cash balances, which are approximately $2 million as of the date of this filing, when combined with expected revenue sources, to enable us to operate at least through the end of 2008. We have a plan to achieve profitability in 2008 -however an integral component of that plan is signing one or more licensing agreements with up-front payments. There can be no assurance that we will achieve profitability, or even break-even, or that expected revenue sources will all occur as planned. The mix of revenues received could also cause the revenues required to reach break-even to increase. If revenue producing projects require unanticipated expenses, or heavier than anticipated use of outside services or materials, we may be unable to achieve profitability at the expected level of revenues. We believe that we have the ability to continue to raise funding, if necessary, to enable us to continue operations until our plan can be completed.

This plan is based on current development plans, current operating plans, the current regulatory environment, historical experience in the development of electronic products and general economic conditions. Changes could occur which would cause certain assumptions on which this plan is based to be no longer valid. Although we do not expect funding our operations to be a problem, if adequate funds are not available from operations, or additional sources of financing, we may have to eliminate, or reduce substantially, expenditures for research and development, testing and production of its products, or obtain funds through arrangements with other entities that may require us to relinquish rights to certain of our technologies or products. Such results would materially and adversely affect us.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (cont.)

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

In June 2008, we settled our litigation with Mr. Till Keesmann. The settlement agreement resulted in no payment to either party. In addition, at the same time, the license agreement with Mr. Keesmann was amended. The amendment set forth minimum terms for future sublicense agreements, clarified future licensing responsibilities, provided Mr. Keesmann the opportunity for advances against future royalties, and also provided Mr. Keesmann options for services to be rendered.

Effective July 1, 2008, we changed our name from Nano-Proprietary, Inc. to Applied Nanotech Holdings, Inc. On the same date, our trading symbol changed from NNPP to APNT.

As described in greater detail in Note 5 to the financial statements and Part II, Item 1, of this report, in July 2008, the Appeals Court reversed the District Court’s ruling related to our termination of the contract and reinstated Canon’s non-exclusive license to certain of our display technology.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

There are no recent accounting pronouncements that we have not implemented that are expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

Our cash position decreased during the period. At June 30, 2008 we had cash and cash equivalents in the amount of $1,012,097 as compared with cash and cash equivalents of $3,020,096 at December 31, 2007. This decrease in cash is primarily the result of cash used in operating activities.

We received net cash from financing activities of $41,952 during the six months ended June 30, 2008 (the “2008 Period”), as compared with cash flow from financing activities of $6,297,474 during the six months ended June 30, 2007 (the “2007 Period”). The cash flow in the 2007 Period resulted from the issuance of common stock in connection with a private placement of our common stock and from the exercise of stock options. The cash flow in the 2008 Period was the result of the exercise of stock options, partially offset by payments on capital leases.

Our net cash used in operating activities increased from approximately $1.8 million in the 2007 Period to approximately $2.0 million in the 2008 Period. This is primarily the result of operating factors discussed below in the “Results of Operations” We would expect our cash used in operating activities to decrease in future quarters in 2008. We expect reduced cash used in operations, or positive cash flow from operations, in the third quarter of 2008 as a result of the previously mentioned IPV transaction. We also expect reduced cash used in operations, or positive cash flow from operations, in the third quarter of 2008 as a result of increasing revenues and decreasing expenses.

Cash used in investing activities in both periods was insignificant and related to the purchase of capital equipment. We expect cash used in investing activities to remain at relatively insignificant levels for the balance of 2008.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (cont.)

The principal source of our liquidity has been funds received from exempt offerings of common stock. Our current cash balance, which is approximately $2.0 million, is sufficient to last us at least through the end of 2008. We also expect to sign agreements during that period which will extend the time period that cash will last. However in the event that we do determine that we need additional cash, we may seek to sell additional debt or equity securities. While we expect to continue to be able to obtain any funds needed for operations, there can be no assurance that any of these financing alternatives can be arranged on commercially acceptable terms. We believe that our success in reaching profitability will be dependent on our patent portfolio and upon the viability of products using our technology and their acceptance in the marketplace, as well as our ability to obtain additional debt or equity financings in the future, if needed.

We expect to continue to incur substantial expenses for research and development ("R&D"). Further, we believe that certain products that may be developed by potential licensees of our technology may not be available for commercial sale or routine use for a period of one to two years. Others are expected to be available in 2008 and 2009. While we would likely receive initial license payments, ongoing royalty streams related to some licenses will not be available until potential licensees have introduced products using our technology. Therefore, it is possible that the commercialization of our existing and proposed products may require additional capital in excess of our current funding. We do, however, have a plan to operate profitably in 2008 based on the receipt of research funding and other revenues. A significant component of this plan involves signing one or more license agreements with up front payments. Achievement of at least break-even would enable us to continue our research without seeking additional debt or equity financing in the future.

Because the timing and receipt of revenues from the license or royalty agreements will be tied to the achievement of certain product development, testing and marketing objectives, which cannot be predicted with certainty, there may be substantial fluctuations in our results of operations. If revenues do not increase as rapidly as anticipated, or if product development and testing require more funding than anticipated, we may be required to curtail our operations or seek additional financing from other sources at some point in the future. The combined effect of the foregoing may prevent us from achieving sustained profitability for an extended period of time.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Our net loss for the second quarter ended June 30, 2008 was $1,345,041 as compared with the loss of $1,229,787 for the same period last year. Our net loss of $2,092,620 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was lower than the loss of $2,575,674 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. This decreased loss was the result of reasons set forth below. We expect our quarterly loss to be reduced in the third and fourth quarters of 2008.

Our revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 totaled $853,234 compared to $916,038 for the same quarter of 2007. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 (the “2008 Period”), our revenues were $1,723,248 as compared with $1,872,905 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2007 (the “2007 Period”), a slight decrease. The revenues in both periods were all from ANI and substantially all the result of reimbursed research expenditures. The majority of revenues in both periods came primarily from government contracts. At the present stage of our development, significant conclusions cannot be drawn by comparing revenues from period to period; however, we would expect the revenue for the balance of 2008 to increase above the level of the first six months. Our business strategy is built on developing a royalty stream from licensing our intellectual property. To supplement this, we also seek funding from both governmental and private sources to help fund our research. Until we are able to develop a steady revenue stream from royalties, our revenues will tend to fluctuate greatly from quarter to quarter. Our private research funding tends to come in large amounts at sporadic times.

We have a revenue backlog of approximately $3.4 million as of the date of this filing, a substantial increase over our backlog of approximately $2.1 million as of June 30, 2007, and we expect our revenue to remain at or above current levels in future quarters as a result of this backlog. Our ability to perform continued research, or fulfill our backlog, will not require additional personnel. We do not anticipate hiring any additional people for the balance of the year, unless we receive significant new revenues.

We incurred research and development expenses of $2,389,891 in the 2008 Period, which was higher than the amount of $2,071,712 incurred in the 2007 Period. This reflects a general increase in the level of our activity and the costs associated with the revenue producing projects. We expect research and development expenditures to gradually decrease for the remainder of the year as we cut back our spending on projects that are not funded by outside sources. Significant new revenue producing research programs beyond those already identified could, however, cause research and development expenditures to increase further.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (cont.)

Our selling, general, and administrative expenses were $2,062,008 for the 2008 Period, compared with $2,440,072 for the 2007 Period – a decrease of approximately $380,000. The main reason for this decrease was decreased litigation expenses. We had litigation related expenses of approximately $900,000 in the 2007 Period, but only approximately $200,000 in the 2008 Period. The majority of the litigation expense in the 2007 Period related to the Canon litigation and expenses associated with the trial. The majority of the litigation expense in the 2008 Period related to the Keesmann litigation and the related multipart settlement. We expect litigation expenses to decline even further from current levels in the third and fourth quarters of 2008 as a result of the completion of the Canon appeal and the settlement of the Keesmann litigation.

Offsetting this increase in litigation expense were increases in other areas. Our stock based compensation expense increased from approximately $215,000 in the 2007 Period to approximately $275,000 in the 2008 Period. In addition, our payroll and related expenses increased from approximately $550,000 in the 2007 Period to approximately $630,000 in the 2008 Period as a result of additional administrative employees and other increased costs. We also incurred increased costs in the area of patent filings and maintenance fees, consultants, and as a result of our annual shareholders meeting. We would expect our selling, general and administrative expenses to be lower in the third and fourth quarters of 2008 than in the first two quarters of 2008 as a result of the expected decrease in litigation expenses discussed in the preceding paragraph and other cost saving measures that we have implemented.

Our interest income is insignificant, but decreased during the 2008 Period as a result of a lower average level of invested cash balances. Our interest income results from the investment of excess funds in short term interest bearing instruments, primarily certificates of deposit, commercial paper, and money market funds. We expect our interest income to remain at insignificant levels for the balance of 2008. Our interest expense was insignificant in both periods and is expected to remain so for the balance of the year.

During the 2008 Period, we also had a gain of $100,000 from the sale of certain excess patents, which we were no longer using and which did not relate to any of our current technology platforms. The 2008 Period also included a gain of $500,000 from the settlement related to the additional defendants in the Keesmann litigation, which is discussed in greater deal in Part II, Item 1 to this report. No similar items were included in 2007.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We do not use any derivative financial instruments for hedging, speculative, or trading purposes. Our exposure to market risk is currently immaterial.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the period covered by this report (the "Evaluation Date"). Based upon this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the material information required to be included in our Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms relating to the Company, including, our consolidated subsidiaries, and was made known to them by others within those entities, particularly during the period when this report was being prepared.

In addition, there were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the Evaluation Date. We have not identified any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal controls, and therefore, there were no corrective actions taken.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Canon litigation

Keesmann litigation

In May 2006 we filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against Till Keesmann, a German citizen who in 2000 granted us an exclusive and perpetual license to certain of his U.S. and European patents in carbon nanotube cathode technology. The complaint, which resulted from Keesmann’s attempted termination of the license in March 2006, seeks a declaratory judgment that Keesmann had no right to terminate the exclusive license. We also filed for a Temporary Restraining Order and Preliminary Injunction to prevent Keesmann from taking any actions inconsistent with his obligations under the exclusive license.

In June 2006, Keesmann filed an Answer and Counterclaim, denying that the purported termination was null and void, and asserted a counterclaim that asks the court to find that we breached the exclusive license by, among other things, not actively marketing the Keesmann patents. The Court granted a consent order that prevented Keesmann from licensing the patents pending an injunction hearing and decision.

In January 2007, the Court granted our motion for preliminary injunction, ruling that there was a reasonable likelihood that we would prevail on the merits of the case. The preliminary injunction enjoined Keesmann, his agents, employees, and all those acting in concert with him from terminating the license agreement for the reasons asserted in the March 2006 default notice, or otherwise acting in violation of the license agreement. In connection with this injunction, the Court set a surety bond, which is required by law, at $100,000. We posted the bond in February 2007. That bond was released back to us in July 2008.

In 2005, Keesmann conveyed part of his interests in the Exclusive License to investors associated with a German patent evaluation firm, IP Bewertungs AG (“IPB”). In December 2006, we amended our original complaint to add these investors as additional defendants. The amended complaint also contained additional claims including breach of contract, conversion, aiding and abetting conversion, conspiracy to commit conversion, misappropriation, aiding and abetting misappropriation, conspiracy to commit conversion, Lanham Act violations, tortious interference with a prospective economic relationship, aiding and abetting tortious interference with a prospective economic relationship, and conspiracy to tortiously interfere with a prospective economic relationship. We completed a settlement agreement with these additional defendants in February 2008. As a result of this settlement agreement, we received a payment of $500,000 in exchange for dropping all claims against these defendants. Mr. Keesmann did not participate in that settlement and the litigation against Mr. Keesmann continued.

In June 2008, we settled the remaining litigation with Mr. Keesmann. The settlement agreement resulted in no payment to either party. In addition, at the same time, the license agreement with Mr. Keesmann was amended. The amendment set forth minimum terms for future sublicense agreements, clarified future licensing responsibilities, provided Mr. Keesmann the opportunity for advances against future royalties, and also provided Mr. Keesmann options for services to be rendered.
