DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
Except for historic financial information, all of the information that is
contained in this Form 10-QSB is comprised of forward looking statements within
the meaning of the Exchange act of 1934. Specifically, all statements in the
report, other than historical facts, regarding our financial position, business
strategy, and plans for future operations are forward looking. These statements
are based on beliefs of management and are subject to known and unknown risks.
These risks involve present and future economic conditions, market conditions,
financing, litigation and other potentially threatening business influences, all
of which may change and produce risks and results very different than those now
affecting us. The words " anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "expect", "will",
"may", "continue", "intend", "could" and "should" or other words and phrases
similar to these are intended to caution the reader of the forward looking
nature of their use. Statements containing these words should be considered
"cautionary". Management's statements in this report are based on the most
accurate assessment of the risks associated with the business today; however,
certain facts and assumptions may not be realized and the actual operating
results may prove to be different than expected. Although we believe our
assumptions are reasonable, we are qualifying all written statements attributed
to management's estimates as cautionary and forward looking and accordingly
expressly qualify their accuracy pending substantial realization of the
underlying estimates, conditions and assumptions.

Notes to Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- ----------------------------------------
Cash and Cash Equivalents
- -------------------------
Liquid money market investments are considered cash equivalents for purposes of
the statement of cash flows; however, some short-term investments in money
market funds may not be included as cash equivalents based solely on the terms
of the instrument.
Risk Concentrations
- -------------------
The company has concentrated its risk by maintaining cash balances in bank and
institutional money market accounts in excess of the amount of the FDIC
insurance protection. The company has not historically suffered any losses from
this risk and the maximum potential loss at March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001
would be $1,514,979 and $2,403,920 respectively.
Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share
- --------------------------------
SFAS 128 "Earnings per Share" requires a dual presentation of earnings per
share-basic and diluted. Basic earnings per common share have been computed
based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted
earnings per share reflect the increase in weighted average common shares
outstanding that would result from the assumed exercise of all outstanding stock
options.
Inventory
- ---------
The company contracts with a third party for the turn key manufacture of its
products; however, a limited amount of long lead production parts and R & D
testing parts are included in the inventory at March 31, 2002 and December 31,
2001.
Property, Depreciation and Maintenance
- --------------------------------------
Property and equipment is recorded at acquisition cost and depreciated for book
purposes using the straight line depreciation method over the estimated useful
lives of the assets (three to ten years). Routine maintenance and repair costs
are expensed when incurred. Gains or losses realized on the disposition of these
assets are reflected in the income statement.
Amortization of Intangible Assets
- ---------------------------------
Business goodwill resulting from the acquisition of another company's technology
was deemed to be 100 % impaired at December 31, 2001 and written off
accordingly. The costs to file and maintain our technology patents in the United
States and select foreign countries is being capitalized when incurred and
amortized over the life of the resulting patents. Amortization expense for cost
of the patent work for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 was $10,881 and
$22,835 respectively.
8
Revenue Recognition
- -------------------
The company recognizes revenue once product is shipped to the customer. A
warranty reserve has been established to provide for any estimated future
liability that may be incurred pursuant to the one year manufacturer's
replacement guaranty against defects in the product under normal usage.
Research and Development / Manufacturing Support Costs
- ------------------------------------------------------
All costs to research, design, improve and manufacture prototype power supply
units in our laboratory are charged to expense when incurred. The costs to
support the initial production process at our contract manufacturer, including
travel, non- recurring engineering costs, tooling expenses and pre-production
parts kits are also charged to expense when incurred. The expense item varies
dramatically based on the stage of the new product testing, product release
stages and the pre production process.
Use of Estimates
- ----------------
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities for financial
statement purposes. Actual results may vary from management's estimates based on
unforeseen events that could not be reasonably predicted at the time of
management's estimate or assumption.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncement
- ----------------------------------------
The company adopted FASB issued SFAS No. 142 "Goodwill and other Intangible
Assets" effective at January 1, 2002. Goodwill will no longer be amortized for
financial statement purposes; periodically, impairment tests of the remaining
value of goodwill may result in write-downs when comparing the remaining cost
versus fair value of the asset on the books and records. The company currently
has no goodwill recorded on the balance sheet.
Annual Versus Interim Statements
- --------------------------------
The interim financial statements are presented in accordance with the
requirements of SEC Form 10-QSB and therefore may not include all of the
disclosures made in the SEC Form 10-KSB annual report filing. These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with Management's Discussion included
in the SEC Form 10-QSB and the footnotes to the audited financial statements
included in the 2001 SEC Form 10-KSB.
NOTE 2 - OFFICER'S RETIREMENT LIABILITY
- ---------------------------------------
Effective March 1, 2000, the CEO retired from the Company and received cash
benefits provided by an employment agreement for a period of 18 months following
retirement. The liability was satisfied August 31, 2001 and the liability for
these benefits at March 31, 2002 and 2001 was $-0- and $67,500 respectively.
Subsequent events and information discovered from an internal investigation have
led to the conclusion that these cash benefits may be recoverable from the
ex-employee through litigation because of an alleged breach of duties and
responsibility while he was an officer of the company during the period 1996 to
2000. An estimate of the amount or timing of a potential recovery for the
company can not be reasonably determined at this time. See Note 6.

NOTE 3 - SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
- -----------------------------
Qualified Stock Option Plan
- ---------------------------
The shareholders approved a Qualified Incentive Stock Option Plan on December 7,
1999. The purpose for the plan is to have the ability to offer stock incentives
to key employees as a reward for past performance and to attract the
best-qualified new employees by offering ownership as a means of reward and
retention. A total of 3,500,000 common shares have been set-aside in this plan
to provide for stock options to participants. Outstanding options awarded from
the plan at March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001 were 362,324 shares. None of
the vested options have been exercised as of March 31, 2002.
Directors Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan
- -----------------------------------------
The Board of Directors adopted a Directors Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan in
August 2000 to provide for stock options to members serving on the Board. The
plan will be used to attract the most qualified candidates by issuing them stock
options in exchange for their service on the Board.
Stock Option Notes Receivable
- -----------------------------
The company's ISOP Plan administrators allow (beginning October, 2000) employee
ISOP plan participants to borrow funds from the company to option their common
stock. The advances are evidenced by recourse notes from the employee to the
company and will be repaid from the proceeds of the sale of the optioned shares
by the employee. The outstanding stock option exercise notes payable to the
Company at March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001 is $74,727. Interest accrued on
these notes is included in Other Receivables on the balance sheet.
NOTE 4 - INCOME TAXES
- ---------------------
A reconciliation of the US statutory federal income tax rate to the effective
rate follows:
March 31, March 31,
2002 2001

------------- -------------
Net deferred taxes $ -- $ --
============= =============
The valuation allowance offsets the deferred tax assets for which there is no
assurance of recovery. The net operating losses prior to 1996 have been lost due
to the change of business and change of ownership. The losses since 1996 may be
limited because of the degree of change of ownership during 2000. The available
NOL is based on the estimated time during the year that the greater than 50 %
ownership change occurred, thereby, resulting in the loss becoming partially
limited in its future use.
NOTE 5 - CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS
- --------------------------------------
Office and Laboratory Space
- ---------------------------
The Company has leased their office-laboratory space in the Highland Park
complex in Englewood, Colorado through February 28, 2006. Future rental payments
payable under the lease total $390,523 and is payable $99,708 annually (or
$8,309 per month for the 47 remaining months) until February, 2006.
Performance Options
- -------------------
As part of their executive employment agreements, two officers (including the
retired CEO) were eligible to receive options to purchase 500,000 shares each
(one million in total) of the Company's common stock upon the company achieving
certain performance goals. As of December 31, 2001, none of the performance
goals had been met and all of the options expired.
Manufacturing Agreement
- -----------------------
The Company has entered into an arrangement with Saturn Electronics and
Engineering Inc. for the turn-key manufacture of the initial power conversion
units developed by the Company. Saturn may, if requested, assist us to finance
certain costs normally associated with the production ramp up process and
subsequently be reimbursed out of the proceeds of payments for the orders by
establishing special purposes disbursement trusts for executing the arrangement.
Subject to certain terms and conditions, Saturn has the exclusive right to
manufacture all of the products developed by OnLine through the end of their
first product development program.
NOTE 6- LITIGATION
- ------------------
The Company has been notified that the "Max Music" case and court decision,
decided in favor of the company in 1999 and appealed by the plaintiff, was
upheld by the federal judge and resulted in no further financial impact to the
company.
11
An extensive legal investigation has been conducted by the company into the
possible breach of duties and responsibilities by the ex-CEO, Mr. Larry Arnold
and will result in the company filing a lawsuit for recovery of unspecified
monies and assets properly owed back to the company. The results of any
litigation action and recovery of monetary damages cannot be reasonably
determined at this time.
The SEC has been conducting a formal inquiry into possible federal securities
laws violations by the company and two of its senior officers, including the
ex-CEO Mr. Larry Arnold. We have been notified by the SEC staff that, as a
result of their inquiry, they may recommend formal civil proceedings be
initiated against the company and two senior officers ( one current and one
former) alleging that the antifraud prohibitions of federal securities laws were
violated. The ultimate outcome of the SEC's investigation cannot be currently
determined with any degree of certainty; any future results when known will be
immediately reported as other events on form 8-K with the SEC.
NOTE 7 - CONTINUED OPERATIONS
- -----------------------------
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared based on the going
concern accounting concept, whereby the realization of assets and satisfaction
of liabilities occurs in the normal course of business. The continuing operating
losses of the company will impair working capital beginning in June 2002 and the
company will seek new equity or debt funding to sustain operations. Revenues and
profits from the forecasted sales of product will likely not be adequate to
sustain the company at its present spending levels. Discussions are currently
underway with funding sources that management believes could provide adequate
new cash resources in a timely manner. There can be no assurance that the
required operating cash will be available to the company until a definitive
agreement is executed between the company and potential investors and funding is
consummated.
NOTE 8 - DEVELOPMENTAL TECHNOLOGY RISKS AND REVENUE GENERATION
- --------------------------------------------------------------
The company is focused on bringing its new, proprietary technology (the PFC unit
and now the 48 volt 1000 watt power supply currently in the UL certification
process) to market that will compete more favorably against existing technology
for certain targeted applications and customers. The company is relying on a few
large original equipment manufacturer (OEM) customers for prospective sales
during 2002 and has established a significant sales marketing budget to
facilitate the introduction of the technology to these potential users. The
technology introduction process is complex and lengthy; however, initial orders
may result once customers evaluate and approve the prototype 48 volt units
delivered to them in the first quarter 2002. We have existing purchase orders
for the PFC from our initial customer and a forecast from them of deliveries of
units during the next twelve months. We do not have any purchase orders yet for
the 48 volt 1000 watt power supply pending final UL safety certification.
12
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the reviewed
quarterly financial statements filed with this report. Except for the historical
information contained herein, this report may contain forward looking statements
that involve risks and uncertainties, including manufacturing risks associated
with implementing new process technology, achieving commercial-scale
manufacturing levels, achieving consistent yields and quality, uncertainty of
market acceptance and timing of market acceptance, as well as other risks
detailed from time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, including the Company's annual SEC Form 10-K.
GENERAL DISCUSSION OF THE BUSINESS STRATEGY
OnLine Power Supply Inc. has been focusing since 1997 on the discovery of new
technology for AC-DC power conversion methods and has released its initial
patented product, the power factor corrected module ("PFC"), to manufacturing in
March 2001. The next product, a 48 volt 1000 watt power supply, is in the UL
certification process and is due to be released to the market and pre-production
in May 2002. Over 14,000 PFC's have been sold to date and prospective customers
are expressing interest in ordering the 48 volt product once it is made
available in 2002. All of the intellectual property is patent protected (or
patent pending) in the United States and the process has commenced to protect
our intellectual property with foreign patents in select other countries. The
Company's objective is to become the leader in innovation for the power supply
industry and to revolutionize the way power supplies are perceived as a
component of an overall system. The ultimate goal is to have our power supply
viewed as a strategic component of the next generation of power driven products
that allows engineers a competitive design advantage when producing their final
products and applying our patented methods for achieving power and power
conversion solutions to their present design constraints.
While the laboratory staff concentrates on finalizing the initial prototype 48
volt power supply for testing and certification, the sales and marketing staff
is introducing the product to the targeted prospective users. An advertising and
public relations campaign has been designed to heighten the awareness of our
products and our company. A new and much larger laboratory and office space was
occupied in February 2001; the business unit continues to mature and grow to
meet the demands of being a public reporting company.
Plans call for us to develop additional derivative products utilizing the
existing technology platform to meet the industry needs for higher wattages and
lower voltage applications for inclusion in the next generations of systems now
being contemplated.
13
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS--QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2002
COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2001.
Revenues from the sales of the PFC product increased 144 % in the quarter ended
March 31, 2002 as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2001. The initial
promotional sales pricing in 2001 and the costs of pre-production produced a
gross loss of $12,462 in the comparative quarter last year; however, the sales
in this current quarter produced a gross profit of $152,369 on revenues of
$494,423. Revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 do not include any
revenues from the sales of the newest product, the 48 volt 1000 watt power
supply. Sales for 2001 and the first quarter 2002 and substantially less than
previously forecasted mainly due to the unfavorable global economic conditions
that have recently showed signs of improving. Our major customer for the PFC
product cancelled and pushed out previously scheduled deliveries for the PFC
beginning mid-summer 2001 and is slowly returning to previously anticipated
higher levels of orders for the PFC. The current backlog of business orders at
may 15, 2002 from this customer for the PFC unit to be shipped in the second
quarter totals $928,000. Sales of the newest product, the 48 volt 1000 watt
power supply, could occur as early as next quarter providing the UL
certification process is finished as planned during 2002.
The Company continues to add engineering, technical and management personnel
during 2001 and 2002 to complete the process of expanding the company's product
development capabilities. The research and development program for 2002 calls
for new power supply products to be added that will operate at higher wattages
and lower voltages to meet the market demands tending in those directions. The
patented power conversion process will be more fully utilized in the development
of a wide range of new products, all with similar, advanced operating
characteristics required by our potential customers. The cost of research and
development also includes the pre-certification, pre-production start up costs
during those months when a new product is being readied for release to
manufacturing and to the market. The first quarter 2001 included costs to begin
the manufacturing and release of the PFC and the first quarter 2002 included the
costs to begin the manufacturing and release of the 48 volt 1000 watt product.
The expanded development program resulted in a 15 % increase in the R & D costs
quarter over quarter from $465,348 to $537,051.
Sales and marketing costs for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 versus March 31,
2001 were $336,750 and $236,032 respectively, an increase of 42 % year over
year. The department includes two in-house sales directors, a sales associates,
an administrative person, a marketing director, a field representative, and one
part time support person. The increases in personnel from 2001 to 2002 were a
sales associate, the marketing director, the field representative and the part
time support person. All other costs of sales and marketing for 2001 and 2002
included: print advertising, web site development and maintenance, travel, trade
show expense and distributor training and support. The focus of the selling
effort is to reach our targeted customers and industry leaders through the use
of the web site and trade magazine advertising supplemented with visits to
customers' businesses by our sales directors.
Selling, general and administrative expenses in 2002 and 2001 were $463,993 and
$626,503 respectively, a quarterly decrease of 26 % year over year. The
administrative infrastructure and associated cost structure have been
established at the present levels for over a year. The overhead costs decreased
this current quarter due to the vacancy of some senior level positions and the
absence of the salaries and benefits normally associated with those positions.
Investment (interest) income decreased $131,630 per quarter from 2001 to 2002
due to the decrease of investable funds year over year. The company continues to
use short term invested cash at an average monthly rate of $500,000 to sustain
the research and development effort and the ongoing operating loss position of
the company.
14
FINANCIAL CONDITION
The company has been operating on invested equity capital for the past several
years in advance of the revenue generation provided by marketing and selling the
new products being developed in our laboratory. The first quarter 2002 resulted
in limited revenues and ongoing operating losses from the sales of the PFC
product and consumed $1,686,396 in cash resources.
The company has current liquid assets of $2,803,170 at March 31, 2002 to pay
current liabilities of $666,313, which is a ratio of 4.2 to 1 as an indication
of our ability to pay our payables on time. However, by mid-Summer 2002, the
company will be needing additional funding and; therefore, expects to have
additional cash resources to sustain the R & D and selling operations at the
present levels until sufficient breakeven revenues can be realized from
anticipated sales of the 48 volt 1000 watt products later this year.
Shareholder' equity at March 31, 2002 is $3,264,870 a decrease from the year end
equity amount of $1,172,611 mainly due to the operating losses for the quarter
and other asset acquisitions. Further decreases in shareholders' equity are
expected during second quarter 2002 until the time the anticipated (equity) cash
infusion is actually received by the company.
The company has limited opportunities to arrange debt financing such as secured
or unsecured lines of credit, but may be successful in arranging equipment lease
financing for capital equipment necessary for the start of production for the
new product line next quarter.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The company has successfully financed its product research and development
effort by selling stock to investors from time to time. The company historically
has not had to rely on debt or net sales revenues to pay the cost of its
operations. It was anticipated that sales of the new products would be
sufficient to sustain the development efforts of the company in 2001 and 2002;
however, the impact of the overall global recession and the telecomm and dot.com
business crashes impacted all of our potential customers and caused much lower
sales revenues and operating profits for OPS than earlier planned. The projected
cash burn rate for executing the present business plan includes working capital
to fund the ramp up costs for planned new products. The start of production for
the 48 volt power supply is scheduled for June 2002 and some costs of
pre-production will need to be paid in advance. Sales forecasts for the PFC
product and the "next to be released" 48 volt 1000 watt product may not produce
net revenues sufficient to pay the cost of operations in the last half of 2002
without additional funding.
Therefore, the company plans to obtain additional operating capital in the
second quarter 2002 and is conducting negotiations with a potential funding
source. Management believes that the required new working capital will be
received timely; however, no assurances of obtaining the new capital is possible
until a definitive agreement is executed by the parties. In the event that new
working capital is not received next quarter (by June 30, 2002), the company
will need to significantly scale back operations to allow for the remaining cash
to be used to complete the 48 volt product and get it in the hands of the
initial customers.
INCOME TAXES
The Company has approximately $10,000,000 of operating tax loss carry forwards
that expire each year through 2020 if not offset against taxable profits. Some
portion of these losses will be available in the future to offset the current
payment of the taxes normally due on the profits of the Company. The Company has
not paid income taxes since its inception. The Tax Reform Act of 1986 and other
income tax regulations contain provisions which may limit the NOL carry forwards
available to be used in any given year, if certain events occur, including major
changes in ownership or changes in businesses.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On May 10, 2002, the company filed a motion for preliminary and permanent
injunctions in United States District Court for the District of Colorado, case
number 02-D-0904(CBS), against James F. Glaza, Jeanette Glaza, Falcon Financial
Services Inc., Thomas Glaza and John Does 1-10. The complaint alleges that the
defendants have solicited and are soliciting proxies in violation of section 14
of the Securities Act of 1934 and the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
The actions of the defendants, including actions of John Does 1-10 (which
actions of John Does 1-10 are alleged to have been conducted on the internet
without identification of the true identities of such defendants who are acting
as a group with the named defendants) are in relation to a preliminary proxy
statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by the defendants
James F. Glaza and Jeanette Glaza. The company's motion for preliminary
injunction alleges that the preliminary proxy statement is materially false and
misleading for the following reasons: a) failure to identify all participants in
the proxy solicitation, b) failure to disclose the adverse regulatory history of
James and Jeanette Glaza, c) failure to disclose the 1999 suspension of the
"certified financial planner" designation for James and Jeanette Glaza and d)
failure to disclose a ruling by the Ohio Division of Securities denying James F.
Glaza a license as a stock broker in that state because he was determined to be
not of good business repute.
In addition, the company's motion for injunctive relief alleges that the
preliminary proxy statement is false and misleading for failure to disclose the
amount and purchase prices paid for cheap stock of the company by James F. and
Jeanette Glaza during the same periods of time that they were selling the stock
of the company to customers of Falcon Financial at substantially higher prices
and failure to disclose the amount of selling commissions received by them in
relation to stock offerings conducted by the company from 1997 to mid-2000.
The company's motion seeks a number of remedies, including an order of the court
enjoining the defendants from solicitation of proxies in violation of federal
securities laws. A hearing has been set by the court for June 25, 2002.
