The 1996 and 1997 portion of the condensed financial statements for the period from May 22, 1996 (inception) through September 30, 2000, were audited by other auditors whose report dated February 5, 1998, expressed an unqualified opinion. We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying condensed financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. /s/ NEFF & RICCI LLP Albuquerque, New Mexico October 20, 2000 1 ADVANCED OPTICS ELECTRONICS, INC.

See Notes to Financial Statements. 12 NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation. The interim financial information included herein is unaudited. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes contained in the Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the period ended December 31, 1999. Other than as indicated herein, there have been no significant changes from the financial data published in that report. In the opinion of management, such unaudited information reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals and other adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited information. Description of Business. Advanced Optics Electronics, Inc. (the Company) is a developmental stage technology company with its principal focus on the development and production of large-scale flat panel displays. The Company is currently continuing its research and development of this product. Upon substantial completion of the research and development of the large flat panel display, the Company plans to make the transition from a developmental stage company to selling and producing this product. The market for the large-scale flat panel will include, but not be limited to, cockpit displays, flat panel computer monitors, and advertising billboards. Advanced Optics Electronics, Inc. plans to focus on producing and selling the large-scale flat panel displays for outdoor advertising billboards. The Company has obtained a contract to produce two outdoor advertising billboards using its flat panel display technology. This is the first commercial application of the Company's technology. The success of the Company will depend on its ability to commercialize its technology and complete this contract. As of September 30, 2000, completion of this contract was behind schedule. The Company received a payment on the contract of approximately $90,000 during the quarter ending September 30, 2000. While management believes the contract will ultimately be completed, there can be no certainty that this will be accomplished because the technology has not yet been used in a commercial application. In addition, the Company may be required to obtain additional capital in order to fund the completion of the contract. Revenue and Cost Recognition. The Company recognizes revenue on its contract in process using the percentage-of completion method of accounting, which is based on the proportion of the contract cost incurred to the estimated total contract cost. Costs incurred and estimated earnings in excess of billings represent the revenue recognized that has not yet been billed. Contract costs include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, overhead, and equipment depreciation. 13 NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Marketable Equity Securities. The Company classifies all of its marketable equity securities as available for sale securities. Available for sale securities are carried at fair value with the unrealized gains and losses reported in Other Comprehensive Income. As of September 30, 2000, gross unrealized losses for the quarter were $2,352 and not considered significant to the financial statements taken as a whole. Therefore, they have been reported in the income statement. Inventories. Inventory consists of raw materials and is carried at the lower of cost (specific identification) or market. Equity Investment. The investment in Bio Moda, Inc. is accounted for using the equity method. Under this method, income and losses reported by the investee are recorded by the Company in its proportionate interest at the time they are recognized by the investee. The original cost of the Bio Moda, Inc. investment exceeded the Company's proportionate interest in Bio Moda's book value. This difference is being amortized over a 15 year period. Loss Per Share. Loss per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year and did not include the effect of potential common stock as their effect would be antidilutive. The numerator for the computation is the net loss and the denominator is the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding. Certain options and warrants outstanding were not included in the computation of loss per share because their effect would be antidilutive. Convertible preferred stock issued during the quarter also was not included in the computation of loss per share because their effect would be antidilutive. Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The principal areas requiring estimation are revenue recognition based on the percentage of completion method, loss allowances and the valuation of common stock issued for services. 14 NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) The contract to produce two outdoor advertising billboards totals $1.7 million, with $885,000 allocated to the first unit. An estimated total loss of approximately $465,000 in the first unit has been recognized as of September 30, 2000. The Company's estimated cost to complete as of September 30, 2000 is $315,000, which it expects to fund with cash, billings on the contract and additional capital. In accordance with the contract, the Company will bill the customer when certain milestones have been met. During the quarter ending September 30, 2000, the Company billed and received approximately $90,000 on the contract. Adjustments to the original estimates of total contract revenue, total contract cost, and extent of progress toward completion are often required as work progresses under the contract and as experience is gained, even though the scope of the work required under the contract may not change. The nature of accounting for contracts is such that refinements of the estimating process for continuously changing conditions and new developments are a characteristic of the process. Accordingly, provisions for losses on contracts are made in the period in which they become evident under the percentage-of-completion method. NOTE 2.

There is currently no active market for the common stock of Bio Moda, Inc. The ultimate value of the Company's investment in Bio Moda, Inc. will depend on its ability to complete its research and either commercialize or sell its proprietary technology. A summary of the unaudited financial data relative to Bio Moda, Inc. as of December 31, 1999 is as follows: Assets: Current assets $ 30,730 Other assets 24,465 --------- 55,195 --------- Fixed assets 2,515 --------- Total assets $ 57,710 ========= Liabilities and equity Notes payable to stockholders $ 92,711 Common stock 760,037 Deficit accumulated during the development stage (795,038) --------- Total liabilities and equity $ 57,710 ========= The investment in Bio Moda, Inc. is accounted for using the equity method. A summary of the investment is as follows: Original cost, all of which exceeded book value $ 358,845 Additional purchase in 1999 25,000 Share of net loss (166,709) Amortization of excess of cost over book value (60,438) --------- Net investment $ 156,698 ========= 16 In August 1999, the Company issued 200,000 shares of its common stock to Wizard Technologies, Inc. for $88,580. The Company then purchased a 10 percent ownership in Wizard for $65,000 with the proceeds. During the quarter ending March 31, 2000, the Company sold back all of its shares of Wizard's common stock to Wizard for its original investment of $65,000. NOTE 4. LONG-TERM DEBT AND CAPITAL LEASE OBLIGATION Convertible Notes. On June 3, 1999, the Company issued $500,000 in convertible notes which bear interest at an annual rate of 8 percent and mature (principal and interest) on May 31, 2001. Effective August 1, 1999, the notes are convertible into shares of common stock at a 25 percent discount to the closing bid price of a share of common stock at the time of conversion or the time of exercise. The notes were issued in exchange for $430,000 in cash, $50,000 in legal services and $20,000 in commissions. The commissions have been capitalized as debt origination costs and are being amortized over the life of the notes. The notes are unsecured. The intrinsic value of the conversion feature of the principal and accrued interest was estimated to be $174,610. This has been recorded as an increase in paid-in capital and a discount to the convertible notes payable, with related amortization being charged to interest expense. The discount is being amortized over a one-year period, which is management's estimate of time before any conversion will be exercised. The convertible notes also include detachable warrants for the purchase of 12,500,000 shares of common stock at the lower of 75 percent of the closing bid price of a share of common stock at the time of exercise or September 1, 1999. The warrants expire on June 3, 2002. Management estimates that approximately half the warrants will be exercised prior to expiration. Management estimated the fair market value of these warrants at $125,000 and recorded this amount as an increase in paid-in capital and a discount to the convertible notes payable. The discount is being amortized over the two-year life of the notes. A significant contingency required by the aforementioned convertible note and warrant agreements is the registration of the underlying shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The company is to use its best efforts to register these shares and is in the process of preparing the registration statement. On June 12, 2000, the Company entered into an agreement that modified the convertible notes agreement entered into on June 3, 1999. The result of the modified agreement was the issuance of 9,200,000 shares of the Company's common stock upon conversion of the convertible notes plus accrued interest through June 12, 2000, which totaled $542,878. This transaction constituted a conversion of the outstanding convertible notes, and as such, $40,058 of unamortized intrinsic value of the conversion feature was charged to interest expense during the quarter. In addition, the modified agreement voided the related 12,500,000 detachable warrants, and as a result the unamortized discount of $72,917 on the estimated fair market value of $125,000 for the warrants was charged to interest expense during the quarter. On September 15, 2000, the Company entered into an agreement to issue a total of $10,000,000 in convertible notes, which bear interest at an annual rate of 8 percent. The Company has authorized 17 NOTE 4. LONG-TERM DEBT AND CAPITAL LEASE OBLIGATION (CONTINUED) the initial sale of $2,000,000 of the convertible notes, and has entered into a structured facility with Purchasers in which the Purchasers shall be obligated to purchase the remaining $8,000,000 of convertible notes. The Company's right to require the Purchasers to purchase notes commences on the actual effective date of the registration of the Company's securities in an amount equal to the securities that would be convertible upon issuance of the notes. The related agreement provides for a limit on the amount of obligation notes that the Company may require the Purchasers to purchase in a given month. On September 15, 2000, the Company issued $500,000 of the initial $2,000,000 in convertible notes, which bear interest at an annual rate of 8 percent and mature (principal and interest) on September 15, 2003. Effective as of the issuance date, the notes are convertible into shares of common stock at the lesser of a 25 percent discount to the average of the three lowest closing bid prices during the thirty trading days prior to the issue date of this note and a 20 percent discount to the average of the three lowest closing bid prices for the ninety trading days prior to the conversion date. The notes were issued in exchange for $430,000 in cash, 20,000 in legal services and $50,000 in commissions. The commissions have been capitalized as debt origination costs and are being amortized over the life of the notes. A significant contingency required by the aforementioned convertible notes is the registration of the underlying shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company is to use its best efforts to register these shares and is in the process of preparing the registration statement. NOTE 5. EQUITY TRANSACTIONS The Company was initially capitalized through the issuance of 500,000 shares for $25,000 in cash. In November 1996, the Company issued 4,500,000 shares in exchange for the outstanding shares of PLZ Tech, Inc. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase and net assets of $285,596, consisting primarily of patents and equipment were recorded. In previous financial statements, the Company did not present unclaimed shares resulting from the merger with PLZ Tech, Inc. as outstanding shares. In the accompanying 1997 and prior financial statements the number of shares outstanding has been restated to include these shares. During 1997, the Company issued 2,281,212 shares of stock in a public offering, primarily for cash. During 1998, the Company repurchased 472,200 of its outstanding stock in exchange for $10,000 in notes receivable and $30,385 in cash in various transactions. This stock was subsequently retired. The Company also issued 9,274,811 shares of common stock in exchange for $1,292,707 in cash, net of sales commissions and other direct costs. Certain of these sales included price maintenance agreements resulting in the issuance of an additional 1,704,464 shares of stock in 1998. 18 In 1998, the Company issued 2,751,000 shares of common stock in exchange for services from contractors, officers and others. These shares were valued at the estimated fair market value for similar issuances of stock and amounted to $296,470. The Company also issued 315,000 shares to an officer in exchange for a note receivable of $29,000. The notes bear interest at the rate of 7 percent with interest due semiannually and the principal due July, 2001. In 1999, the Company repurchased 489,251 shares of its outstanding stock for $11,132 in cash. These shares were retired.

On March 14, 2000, the Company issued 550 shares of its Series A convertible preferred stock for $550,000. Related finders fees and attorney fees were $65,000, and were netted against the proceeds for a net increase in cash and equity of $485,000. Effective June 14, 2000, the shares are convertible into shares of common stock at the lesser of 110 percent of the closing bid price of a share of common stock on March 13, 2000 or 77.5 percent of the average of the five lowest closing bid prices for the common stock for the twenty trading days immediately preceding the conversion date. Management estimated the intrinsic value of the conversion feature to be $159,677. This has been recorded as an increase in paid-in capital and a discount to the convertible preferred stock, with related amortization being charged to retained earnings via constructive dividends. The discount is being amortized over a 90-day period, which is the period from the date of issuance to the point at which the preferred shares can be converted to common shares. The convertible preferred stock also includes detachable warrants for the purchase of 55,000 shares of common stock at a purchase price per share equal to 110 percent of the closing bid price for the common stock on the closing date (March 8, 2000). The warrants expire on March 8, 2005. The detachable warrants have not been valued in the accompanying financial statements, as management estimates their fair market value to be immaterial.

OVERVIEW Advanced Optics Electronics, Inc. is a technology company whose primary focus is the development, production and sales of its electronic flat panel displays. The primary initial product will be marketed to users of outdoor advertising billboards. We believe that our product line has the potential to create a new segment of the outdoor advertising industry. Our systems software and electronic displays represent an innovative approach to advertising that takes advantage of the recent technological convergence of broadcast and billboard media and the World Wide Web. 21 Our goal is to create a product line based on technology that is scalable both in terms of size and resolution to meet a wide range of requirements related to site, economics and use from our potential customers. We also plan the development of a leasing program and an Owned & Operated group. The major advantages and features of the Display are: o Brightest display ever available (35,000 nits) o Widest viewing angle available o Smallest dot pitch available for outdoor large-scale displays (8 mm dot pitch) o High definition picture quality o Modular assembly (1 meter increments) for scaleable and shapeable architectures o True Color (24 bit) o Full motion video (up to 120 frames per second) o Transportable for mobile operations o Weather resistant for outdoor applications o Modest power requirements o Minimum 5 year continual use lifetime o Real-time live video feeds o Broadcast/simulcast applications o Supports streaming video o Uses industry standard DVI protocol for high speed data linking and digital video interfacing o Satellite linkable Proprietary Billboard software capabilities are: o Manage and update display content remotely o Works with all image file formats and digital video editors o Secure Internet or WAN communications o WEB-based status monitoring o Provides time, temperature and other dynamic content inserts The Company was organized as a Nevada corporation on May 22, 1996. On November 7, 1996, the Company acquired the business and patents of PLZTech, a company involved in the development of flat panel displays. Our operating activities have related primarily to the initial planning and development of our product and building our operating infrastructure. During this quarter we completed our prototype and are currently in the manufacturing process of our production model. We expect our principal source of revenue to be derived from sales of our electronic display product. To date we have recognized limited revenue, but we have developed a functioning prototype, which was completed during the quarter, and we anticipate sales by the first quarter 2001. The company has recently set the price for its units at $395,000 and $1,490,000 22 respectively for its 2 meter x 3 meter and its 3 meter x 8 meter flat panel displays. The company received a revenue installment on contract in the third quarter of approximately $90,000. The company has just completed a marketing film to be distributed by November 30, 2000 on a national and international basis. The recipients who would receive this film would be institutional investors and qualified potential buyers of the flat panel displays. Our operating expenses have increased significantly since our inception, and the rate of increase has risen since last year. This is due to increased engineering and management staff and investments in operating infrastructure. Since our inception we have incurred significant losses and, as of September 30, 2000, had an accumulated deficit of $6.8 million. RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS Due to our limited operating history, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations are not fully meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance. Comparison of the Three-Month Periods Ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 Revenue. Since our inception, we have been in the development stage and have had only limited revenue. Revenues decreased to $1,588 in the second quarter of 2000 from $70,000 in the second quarter of 1999. Product Development. Product development expenses consist primarily of personnel expenses, consulting fees and depreciation of the equipment associated with the development and enhancement of our flat panel displays. Research development and technical costs increased to $134,660 in the second quarter of 2000 from $38,167 in the second quarter of 1999. We believe that continued investment in product development is critical to attaining our strategic objectives and, as a result, expect product development expenses to increase significantly in future periods. We expense product development costs as they are incurred. General and Aministrative. General and administrative expenses consist of expenses for executive and administrative personnel, facilities, professional services, travel, general corporate activities, and the depreciation and amortization of office furniture and leasehold improvements. General and administrative costs increased to $565,882 in the second quarter of 2000 from $305,972 in the second quarter of 1999. The increase was primarily due to increased personnel, professional service fees and facility expenses. Due to the growth of our business and continuing expansion of our staff, we expect general and administrative costs to increase. The costs 23 associated with being a publicly traded company and future strategic acquisitions will also be a contributing factor to increases in this expense. Other Income (Expense). Other income (expense) consists of interest and other income and expense. Interest income decreased to $3,407 in the second quarter of 2000 from $5,105 in the second quarter of 1999. The increase in interest income was due to an increase in our average net cash and cash equivalents balance. Depreciation increased to $37,556 in the second quarter of 2000 from $27,371 in the second quarter of 1999 due primarily to depreciation expense for equipment acquired under capital leases. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Since inception, we have funded our operations primarily through the private placement of equity securities. As of September 30, 2000 we have raised net proceeds of $3,559,984. On September 15, 2000, the Company entered into an agreement to issue a total of $2,000,000 in convertible notes, which bear interest at an annual rate of 8 percent. The Company has authorized the initial sale of $2,000,000 of the convertible notes, and has been in negotiations to expand this to a $10,000,000 financing. We have also utilized equipment loans and capital lease financing. As of September 30, 2000 we have a balance of $65,910 on the equipment loans and $23,363 on the capital lease. During the quarter the company secured a $50,000 loan for purchase of manufacturing equipment. In August 1998 Advanced Optics Electronics, Inc. entered into a lease agreement for the financing of equipment for the development of its flat panel display systems. The Company is required to repay the $101,000 in equal monthly payments of the lease. Monthly payments on the lease are approximately $2,850. The term of the lease is 3 years and is backed by the credit of the Company. The Company's holding in BioModa, Inc will provide additional liquidity. BioModa is a biomedical development company. The Company's ownership of BioModa, as of September 30, 2000 was approximately 20%. No immediate family members of officers or directors of Advanced Optics Electronics, Inc. are securities holders of BioModa with the exception of Harold Herman, who is a director of Advanced Optics Electronics, Inc. and a small minority shareholder in BioModa. During the quarter ended September 30, 2000 $46,962 was spent for the purchase of equipment. Product development expenditures were $134,660 in 2000. Funds for operations, product development and capital expenditures were provided from the sale of securities and cash reserves. As of June 30, 2000, we had approximately $496,307 of cash and cash equivalents. 24 Management believes that sales of securities, cash reserves and contract revenue will provide adequate liquidity and capital resources to meet the anticipated development stage requirements through the end of the third quarter 2000. At that time it is anticipated that sales of flat panel displays will begin and contribute to operating revenues. It is anticipated that these sales will provide the additional capital resources to fund the proportionately higher working capital requirements of production and sales initiatives. The Company currently has no other significant commitments for capital expenditures in 2000. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal proceedings The Company is not a party to any significant legal proceeding, the adverse outcome of which, in management's opinion, would have a material adverse effect on the Company's operating results.
