1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of (a) the results of
operations for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, (b)
the financial position at September 30, 2000, and (c) cash flows for the
three-month periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, have been made.
The unaudited financial statements and notes are presented as permitted by Form
10-QSB. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included
in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted. The
accompanying financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with
the audited financial statements and notes of the Company for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 2000. The results of operations for the three-month period ended
September 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of those to be expected for
the entire year.
2. CONTINGENCIES
The Company is currently the plaintiff in a patent infringement lawsuit entitled
Innova/Pure Water, Inc., Plaintiff v. Safari Water Filtration Systems, Inc.
d/b/a Safari Outdoor Products, Defendant; Case No. 99-1781-Civ-T-23F filed by
the Company on August 4, 1999. The case was filed with the U.S. District Court,
Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division. The Company has claimed patent
infringement of U.S. Patent 5,609,759 on the part of the Defendants. It is not
yet possible to evaluate the likelihood of a favorable or unfavorable outcome.
The Company is currently the plaintiff in a patent infringement lawsuit entitled
Innova/Pure Water, Inc., Plaintiff v. Brita Products Company, Defendant; Case
No. 00-157-Civ-T-26C filed by the Company on February 29, 2000. The case was
filed with the U.S. District Court, Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division.
The Company has claimed patent infringement of U.S. Patent 5,609,759 on the part
of the Defendants. It is not yet possible to evaluate the likelihood of a
favorable or unfavorable outcome.
3. EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
During the three-month period ended September 30, 2000, the Company entered into
a month-to-month employment agreement with an individual to provide advisory
services to the chairman and treasurer of the Company. In exchange for these
services, the employee will receive a monthly salary of $6,250, to be paid in
the form of shares of the Company's common stock. As of September 30, 2000,
6,250 shares of the Company's common stock valued at $1,250 were due and payable
to the employee.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 (Unaudited)
3. EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (CONTINUED)
As part of the employment agreement, the employee was granted an option to
purchase 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of
$.50 per share. These options may be exercised beginning September 26, 2001
through September 25, 2003.
The above options have been accounted for under the provisions of Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees."
Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recorded as the exercise price
exceeds the fair market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant. Had
the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," been applied, compensation expense
for the three months ended September 30, 2000 would have amounted to
approximately $1,100.

Year 2000
The "Year 2000" issue is the result of computer programs being written using two
digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Programs with this
problem may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the Year
2000, resulting in system failures or miscalculations. Given this uncertainty,
the Company has recognized the need to remain vigilant in its Year 2000
analysis.
Determination of Year 2000 Readiness
In 1999, the Company completed a review of its information technology (IT) and
non-information technology systems (non-IT). An inventory was taken of the
Company's essential data processing equipment as well as the equipment used in
the Company's manufacturing processes.
The Company compiled information on the Year 2000 compliance of its essential
data processing hardware, which include its computers, printers, scanners,
modems, copiers, and facsimile machines or any other equipment that may process
date data. This information was gathered by actual testing by the Company or
from the manufacturer either by direct correspondence or information that is
available from the manufacturer's Internet website. The Company found that all
essential data processing hardware is Year 2000 compliant.
A review of the Company's essential data processing equipment firmware and
software found it to be either Year 2000 compliant when it was purchased or was
able to be fixed by the download of a "patch" from the software manufacturer's
Internet website.
A review of the equipment used in the Company's manufacturing processes did not
find any potential problem areas due to date processing, including embedded
technologies. The potential for problems occurring in this area is decreased
because the Company essentially assembles complete components from outside
manufacturers into its finished products.
The manufacturer of the Company's telephone equipment does not list our
particular system as Year 2000 compliant. The flaw concerns the printing out of
voicemail reports where the year would be listed as 00 instead of 2000. Since
the system operated normally after January 1, 2000 and the Company does not use
this particular reporting function, it is not necessary to replace the telephone
system. This was the only potential problem area found in the review of the
Company's non-IT systems.
8
12
As a result of these reviews, the Company feels that we are Year 2000 compliant
and that nothing further must be done to our IT and non-IT systems in order to
function normally during the Year 2000 internally.
An assessment of external risks, which are outside the Company's control, was
conducted. The Company identified four major suppliers and two major customers
that were contacted and asked to fill out a questionnaire about their Year 2000
capabilities and remediation programs. All but one responded that they were Year
2000 compliant as of June 30, 1999. The Company experienced no supply
interruptions as a result of the Year 2000 changeover.
A survey of the Company's financial institution and utility companies, by direct
correspondence, Internet website, or published statements, found that they were
or would be Year 2000 compliant by December 31, 1999 with little risk of service
interruption due to untested systems or processes. There were no interruptions
of services experienced as a result of the Year 2000 changeover.
Contingencies
At this time, the Company has determined that it does not need to have increased
inventory levels on September 30, 2000 or purchase any additional liability
insurance due to any litigation that may result from the Year 2000 changeover.
The Company feels that the internal risk of a Year 2000 system failure is
minimal, but took the following steps in order to recover from such a failure:
1. All records were backed up before the end of business on December 31,
1999.
2. Some essential systems had their internal system clocks turned back two
weeks and maintained in December 1999 "time" until a determination was
made that there were not any system failures, related to the Year 2000
changeover, on similar systems on January 1, 2000. This would have
caused an error in the system's date reporting, but essential services
can still have been performed.
There were no Year 2000 problems encountered on or after January 1, 2000 and all
internal system clocks have been returned to the correct time and date. There
will be no errors in date reporting.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Sales
Net sales for the three-month period ended September 30, 2000 were $199,300, an
increase of 124 percent from the $88,900 of net sales for the comparable period
in 1999. This increase is attributable to sales to U.S. Filter (Culligan) during
the quarter.

13
Cost of Sales
For the three months ended September 30, 2000, the cost of sales increased to
$109,300 from the $68,000 of costs for the three months ended September 30,
1999. This increase is mainly due to increase in sales.
Gross profit margin increased 21 percentage points for the three months ended
September 30, 2000, to a gross profit margin of 45 percent from an overall gross
profit margin of 24 percent for the three months ended September 30, 1999. This
is principally attributable to higher sales volume that was available to absorb
the fixed costs of manufacturing.
Operating Expense
Operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2000 were $240,200
as compared to $342,800 for the similar period last year. This 30 percent
reduction of operating expenses is principally attributable to cutbacks in
overhead expenditures for sales and marketing, research and development, and
general and administrative.
Other Income
For the three months ended September 30, 2000, net interest income amounted to
$2,900 as compared to net interest income of $5,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1999. This decrease is due to less cash invested in interest
bearing securities or accounts with a major national bank.
Other income for the three months ended September 30, 2000 of $2,000 was due to
the reimbursement of a retainer by a law firm that was representing the Company.
Income Taxes
Due to the Company's history of operating losses, management has established a
valuation allowance in the full amount of the deferred tax assets arising from
these losses because management believes it is more likely than not that the
Company will not generate sufficient taxable income within the appropriate
period to offset these operating loss carryforwards.
Net Income-(Loss)
Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2000 amounted to $145,000 as
compared to net loss of $310,800 for the three months ended September 30, 1999.
This decrease in loss is principally attributable to the increase in sales and
decrease in operating expenses.
Loss Per Share
For the three months ended September 30, 2000, basic and diluted loss per share
amounted to $(.01). For the comparable period in 1999, basic and diluted loss
per share amounted to $(.03). The decrease in loss per share is due principally
to the decrease in losses between the comparable periods.

14
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Operating Activities
For the three months ended September 30, 2000, net cash used by operating
activities amounted to approximately $27,700, a decrease from the net cash
provided by operating activities of approximately $108,900 for the comparable
period in 1999. The decrease is primarily a result of an increase in cash used
to pay down accounts payable and accrued expenses during the quarter compared to
the three months ended September 30, 1999.
Investment Activities
The Company's investment activities include equipment purchases, patent
acquisitions, and net changes in related party advances.
Net cash used by investing activities for the three months ended September 30,
2000 was approximately $42,200, as compared to net cash used by investing
activities of approximately $45,300 for the comparable period in 1999. Cash
expended for investing activities is due primarily to expenditures on patent
infringement litigation.
Financing Activities
The Company's financing activities include payments on borrowings and capital
leases and the acquisition of treasury stock.
Net cash of approximately $2,700 was used by financing activities for the three
months ended September 30, 2000, as compared to net cash used by financing
activities of approximately $4,300 for the three months ended September 30,
1999. The slight decrease in cash used for financing activities results
primarily from the decrease in treasury stock acquisition during the quarter
compared to the three months ended September 30, 1999.
CAPITAL RESOURCES
At September 30, 2000, the Company does not have any material commitments for
capital expenditures other than for those expenditures incurred in the ordinary
course of business.
The Company believes that its current operations and cash balances will be
sufficient to satisfy its currently anticipated cash requirements for the next
12 months. However, additional capital could be required in excess of the
Company's liquidity, requiring it to raise additional capital through an equity
offering, or secured or unsecured debt financing. The availability of additional
capital resources will depend on prevailing market conditions, interest rates,
and the existing financial position and results of operations of the Company.
