In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring accrual adjustments) necessary to present fairly, the financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been made. 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. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, as amended. The results of operations for the periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. 2.

The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for its fixed price stock options. Accordingly, no compensation cost for options has been recognized in the financial statements. The chart below sets forth the Company's net loss and net loss per share for three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, as reported on a pro forma basis as if the compensation cost of stock options had been determined consistent with SFAS 123.

BUSINESS SEGMENTS The Company has two reportable segments: Telebyte is a manufacturer of technology products and Nextday.com distributes Telebyte's and other manufacturers' products through e-commerce. The Company's chief operating decision maker utilizes net sales and net earnings (loss) information in assessing performance and making overall operating decisions and resource allocations. The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies as set forth in the December 31, 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, as amended.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46). "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities." FIN 46 requires certain variable interest entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the equity investors in the entity do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. FIN 46 is required to be applied to preexisting entities of the Company as of the beginning of the first quarter after June 15, 2003. FIN 46 is required to be applied to all new entities with which the Company becomes involved beginning February 1, 2003 ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.

Such statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks and uncertainties discussed herein and under the caption "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2002, as amended, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. Readers are also urged carefully to review and consider the various disclosures made by us which attempt to advise interested parties of the factors which affect our business, including, without limitation, the disclosures made under the caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation." All references to a fiscal year are to our fiscal year, which ends December 31. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES Management's discussion and analysis of our financial conditions and results of operations are based on our Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, bad debts, inventories, asset impairments, income taxes, contingencies, and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values for assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. For additional information regarding our critical accounting policies and estimates, see the section entitled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2002, as amended. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 Net sales during the third quarter ended September 30, 2003 decreased 16.1% to $1,154,923 compared to sales of $1,376,840 for the same period in 2002. Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 decreased 20.2% to $3,182,131 compared with net sales of $3,985,699 for the same period in 2002. This decrease in sales is primarily due to a decrease of the Company's Broadband Test Equipment product sales in Asia. In addition, the Company's Interface Converter product line sales decreased due to a shortage of a critical fiber optic component. With respect to the sales in each of the Company's product lines results are as follows. For the Data Communications products; the sale of interface converters represented 46% of Telebyte's net sales in the third quarter of 2003 as compared to 43% for the same period in 2002, the sale of short haul modems represented 16% of Telebyte's net sales in the third quarter of 2003 as compared to 14% for the same period in 2002. For the Broadband Test Equipment product line, Broadband test equipment represented 25% of Telebyte's net sales in the third quarter of 2003 as compared with 28% for the same period in 2002. Cost of sales for the third quarter ended September 30, 2003 of $658,485 decreased from $810,397 during the same period in 2002. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales was 57.0% for the third quarter ended September 30, 2003 as compared with 58.9% of net sales during the same period in 2002. Cost of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 of $1,794,934 decreased from $2,350,421 during the same period in 2002. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales was 56.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 as compared with 59.0% of net sales for the same period in 2002. The increase in our gross profit margin percentage was primarily due to improved efficiencies in manufacturing. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter ended September 30, 2003 of $365,045 decreased by $84,477 from $449,522 for the same period in 2002. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 of $1,146,253 decreased by $379,017 from $1,525,270 for the same period in 2002. The decrease was the result of aggressive cost reduction measures taken by management. These measures included reduction of salary and benefits of selected Company personnel and reduction of outside contractor services. The Company began a program of translating its website www.telebytedatacom.com into foreign languages so as to broaden its presence in the international marketplace and provide stronger support for its international distributors. During this quarter the Company completed the translation of this website into Portuguese. Other translation projects are either underway or planned for the future. Research and development expenses for the third quarter ended September 30, 2003 of $129,530 decreased by $46,028, compared to $175,558 for the same period in 2002. Research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 of $572,021 increased by $29,890, compared with $542,131 during the same period in 2002. During this quarter the Company's research and development efforts focused on the development of a Universal Noise Generator (Model 4801). With this product the Company will be able to provide a key, test equipment, requirement for the laboratory development of Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) modems and DSLAMs. Modems and DSLAMs must operate effectively under performance tests defined by industry standards . These performance tests define specific noise/interference environments. The Universal Noise Generator provides the ability to generate, accurately, the required noise/interference environment. The different environments are provided as software and can be menu selected. As new standards define different noise/interference environments the new standard noises can be easily loaded into the Universal Noise Generator. The Company expects to introduce the Model 4801 during the fourth quarter of 2003. Interest income decreased to $73 for the third quarter ended September 30, 2003 from $117 for the same period in 2002. Interest income decreased to $288 during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 from $546 for the same period in 2002. The decrease in interest income is primarily due to lower levels of cash on deposit during 2003 compared to 2002. Interest expense decreased to $14,028 for the third quarter ended September 30, 2003 from $25,939, for the same period in 2002. Interest expense decreased to $53,573 during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 from $80,370 for the same period in 2002. The decrease in interest expenses is primarily due to lower borrowings on the Company's credit facilities during 2003 compared to 2002 and a reduction in the mortgage interest rate on June 1, 2003 from 9.3% to 5.1%. Other income decreased to $8,182 for the third quarter ended September 30, 2003 from $11,414, for the same period in 2002. Other income increased to $133,584 during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 from $20,186, for the same period in 2002. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003 other income totaling $125,200 was from customer funded Research and Development. The effective tax rate in third quarter of 2003 was 0.0%, compared with (31.9)% in the same quarter of 2002. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was 1.7%, compared with (31.2)% in the same period in 2002. The reduction in the effective tax rate is due to a valuation allowance applied to the tax benefits from the Company's net operating losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003. The Company had net earnings of $8,138, or $0.01 diluted per share, for the third quarter ended September 30, 2003 as compared to a net loss of $(41,540), or $(0.03) diluted per share, in the same quarter of 2002. The Company had a net loss of $(218,434), or $(0.17) diluted per share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 as compared to a net loss of $(313,188), or $(0.25) diluted per share, in the same nine month period of 2002. The net loss during 2003 is due primarily to the decrease in net sales as described above. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $36,896 compared to net cash used in operations of $59,785 in the same period of 2002. We believe this change is due primarily to the refund of income taxes received during the third quarter of 2003. Working capital decreased as of September 30, 2003 by $268,089 to $1,751,413 compared with $2,019,502 from December 31, 2002. The current ratio as of September 30, 2003 decreased to 3.3:1 compared to 4.2:1 as of December 31, 2002. The Company has an agreement with a financial institution (the "Agreement"), expiring December 31, 2003, which provides us with a line of credit of up to $300,000 based on our eligible accounts receivable, purchased components and materials and finished goods inventories, as defined in the Agreement. The Agreement contains certain financial covenants, which require us to maintain a minimum level of tangible net worth and places limitations on the ratio of our total debt to our tangible net worth, as defined in the Agreement. Further, the financial institution has introduced a new requirement an unconditional personal guaranty from the Company's Chairman and CEO, and largest shareholder. This guaranty is absolute, unconditional and continuing and shall remain in effect until all of the obligations have been fully paid. Borrowings under the line of credit bear interest at the bank's specified prime rate plus 1%. Net borrowings under this line of credit totaled $132,997 at September 30, 2003. While the Company believes that the Agreement will be renewed upon its expiration on December 31, 2003, the Company has no guarantee of a renewal and, accordingly, there is a risk that the corresponding line of credit could be eliminated as a resource on December 31, 2003. If the line of credit is not renewed, the Company believes it can obtain alternative financing; however, there can be no assurances that alternative financing will be available. In January 1999, we secured an additional reducing revolving line of credit from the same institution that provides for initial borrowings up to a maximum of $1,000,000. Availability under the reducing revolving line of credit decreases by approximately $11,900 per month and the line expires January 2006. Availability under this line at September 30, 2003 was approximately $333,320. Borrowings under this loan agreement bear interest at the 30-Day Commercial Paper Rate plus 2.90%. Net borrowings under this line of credit totaled $325,092 at September 30, 2003. We believe that cash generated by our future operations, current cash and cash equivalents, and the existing lines of credit should supply the cash resources to meet our cash needs for at least the next 12 months. However, this expectation is not at all guaranteed and it may be that these cash resources fall short of the Company's cash needs over the next 12 months. ITEM 3. Controls and Procedures The Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, and based on their evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation, nor were any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses found in the Company's internal controls.
