SCHEDULE "A" FINANCIAL INFORMATION See attached unaudited consolidated financial statements of API Electronics Group Inc. (the "Company") for the six months ended November 30, 2002. Schedule "B" See attached unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the six months ended November 30, 2002. SCHEDULE "C" MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Overview API Electronics Group Inc. ("API" or "Company") is a leading manufacturer of electronic components and microelectronic circuits with precisely defined functional capabilities for advanced military, industrial, commercial, automotive and medical applications. The Company is a leading supplier of defence electronic components to the U.S. Department of Defence and its subcontractors as well as having a strong commercial user base. API's business strategy has been to strengthen its leadership position for its components through continued emphasis on technological advances, operational efficiencies, cost reductions, competitiveness and acquisitions. To this end, on May 31, 2002, API acquired all the outstanding shares of the privately-held "Filtran Group" (Filtran Inc. of Ogdensburg, New York; Filtran Limited, Canadian Dataplex Limited and Tactron Communications (Canada) Limited all of Nepean, Ontario, Canada). Filtran Group is a leading global supplier of superior quality electronic components to major producers of communications equipment, military hardware, computer peripherals, process control equipment and instrumentation. In business since 1969, Filtran Group is ISO 9001 registered and offers off-the-shelf and custom designed products and regularly ships components to clients in more than 34 countries. The acquisition broadens API's product offerings for current and potential customers as well as providing synergies in the areas of engineering and technological capabilities. Consolidated Results of Operations Six months ended November 30, 2002 compared to November 30, 2001 Sales Revenue The Company continued to record strong sales growth during the six months ended November 30, 2002. Revenues increased by 110.0% to $3,444,311 from $1,639,853 posted in the six months ended November 30, 2001. The growth during the period was attributed to the Filtran Group's sales revenue in the amount of $2,072,894 reflected in API's operations for the first time. Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Margin The cost of goods sold was 74.2% of sales in 2002 compared to 72.8% of sales in 2001. Accordingly, the gross margin for 2002 period of 25.8% was in line with the 27.2% gross margin in the 2001 period. The Company was able to maintain its gross margin percentage during the 2002 period, despite competitive pressures, through ongoing cost reduction initiatives. Selling Expenses Selling expenses increased from $167,924 for the six months ended November 30, 2001 to $291,159 for the six months ended November 30, 2002. As a percentage of sales the 2002 selling expenses came in at 8.5% an improvement over the 10.2% posted in 2001. The 74% increase in selling expenses is consistent with the 110% increase in sales revenue. General and Administrative Expenses General and administrative expenses increased substantially from $369,372 for the 2001 period to $718,969 incurred during the 2002 period. As a percentage of sales, the 2002 general and administration expenses were 20.8% compared to 22.5% in 2001. Several components of general and administrative expenses saw increases as a direct result of API's new status as a public company. Professional fees of $133,057 (2001 - $29,423), public relations of $4,572 (2001 - $NIL), and shareholder information of $19,103 (2001 - $470) all increased substantially and were attributable to increased costs that are inherent with public company compliance. In addition, the May 31, 2002 acquisition of the Filtran Group (note 1b in the notes to the consolidated financial statements) resulted in increased general and administrative expenses for API. Several components saw increases as follows: Office salaries - $123,334 (2001 - $33,500), consulting - $43,191 (2001 - - $14,486), rent - $19,071 (2001 - $1,268), telephone - $22,450 (2001 - $15,311). In addition, depreciation and amortization rose to $113,628 (2001 - $15,014) as a result of the overall increase in the Capital and Intangible Asset base arising from the acquisition of the Filtran Group. Business development and investor relations saw a large decrease from $154,002 in the six months ended November 30, 2001 to $54,697 in the six months ended November 30, 2002. The 2001 period saw major one-time expenses (business plan, investor marketing and awareness) of approximately $105,000 when API first became a public company). Management continues to emphasize efficiencies and control of overheads. Other Income and Expense Other income increased from $59,128 for the period ended November 30, 2001 to $69,278 for the period ended November 30, 2002. Included in 2002 is a $40,025 gain earned through the early repayment of an amount owing on the promissory note issued in connection with the Filtran Group acquisition. Other expense relates to interest on long-term debt and the Company saw a substantial increase from $18,825 in 2001 to $59,949 in 2002. The increase is attributed to the addition of debt in the form of the promissory note that added $48,158 of interest expense. Consolidated Results of Operations Six months ended November 30, 2002 compared to November 30, 2001 Net Income / Loss The Company incurred a net loss for the six months ended November 30, 2002 year of $112,347($0.007/share) compared to a net loss of $81,498($0.01/share) for the six months ended November 30, 2001. Liquidity and Capital Resources Summary At November 30, 2002, the Company had cash reserves of $593,943 compared to $1,408,637 as at May 31, 2002. At November 30, 2002 working capital, the excess of current assets over current liabilities totalled $2,973,936 compared to $2,148,073 at May 31, 2002. The current ratio at November 30, 2002 was 3.6:1 compared to 2.0:1 at May 31, 2002. The quick ratio (which excludes inventory and prepaid expenses from current assets) is 1.7:1 at November 30, 2002 compared with 1.1:1 as at May 31, 2002. The increase in the current and quick ratio is attributed primarily to the increased sales level and cash received from a private placement. Inventory rose 12.5% from $1,852,483 as at May 31, 2002 to $2,084,211 as at November 30, 2002. Accounts receivable increased 9.2% from $1,073,058 as at May 31, 2002 to $1,172,341 as at November 30, 2002. Accounts payable rose 18.9% from $874,269 at May 31, 2002 to $1,039,711 as at November 30, 2002. Inventory, accounts receivable and accounts payable are the major working capital components and their increase is consistent with higher sales and production levels. Long-term debt (current and long-term portion) decreased substantially from $2,371,831 at May 31, 2002 to $1,303,325 at November 30, 2002. This decrease resulted primarily from the repayment of the promissory note in the amount of $995,926. The debt to equity ratio improved to 0.24 as at November 30, 2002 compared to 0.53 as at May 31, 2002. Cash Flow Cash generated (used) in operating activities increased from ($262,957) for the six months ended November 30, 2001 to ($330,543) for six months ended November 30, 2002. The major source of cash in 2002 was provided by the issue of 500,000 units of share capital that provided $1,175,000 in cash. The major use of cash during 2002 was the purchase of capital assets in the amount of $285,715 and the repayments of bank indebtedness $284,488 and long-term debt repayments of $1,068,506. Financings On June 19, 2002, the Company completed a $1,175,000 private placement offering of 500,000 units at a price of $2.35 per unit. Each unit consists of one common share and one warrant. The warrants expire on June 30, 2004 and entitles the holders to purchase one additional common share at a price of $3.00 per share. Proceeds from the private placement will be used for general working capital purposes and to fund ongoing acquisition activities. Subsequent Events On December 17, 2002, the Company signed a letter of intent to acquire TM Systems Inc. of Albertson, New York. The acquisition is pending the completion of due diligence by the Company and the signing of a definitive purchase agreement. It is anticipated that the purchase will be an all cash acquisition in the amount of $3,000,000 with adjustments if certain sales revenues are not met. Although the acquisition is expected to close in early 2003, there can be no assurance that the purchase will be consummated. The acquisition is also contingent upon a minimum private placement financing of $2.4 million which was announced December 19, 2002. Under the terms of the financing, a minimum of 6 million units (and up to 8 million) will be offered with each unit consisting of one common share at $0.40 per share and a half-share purchase warrant. Each full share purchase warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one common share at a price of $0.60 for a period of two years following closing. Risks The Company is exposed to a variety of risks in its operations. These include operational, currency, foreign operations, credit, and interest rate. Steps have been taken in all areas to mitigate these risks. API Electronics Group Inc.

The accompanying summary of significant accounting policies and notes are an integral part of these financial statements. 4 API Electronics Group Inc. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Unaudited)(Expressed in US Dollars) November 30, 2002 and 2001 Nature of Business API Electronics Group Inc.'s ("the Company") business focus is the manufacture and design of high reliability semiconductor and microelectronics circuits for military, aerospace and commercial applications. Through recent acquisitions, the Company has expanded its manufacturing and design of electronic components to include filters, transformers, inductors, and custom power supplies for land and amphibious combat systems, mission critical information systems and technologies, shipbuilding and marine systems, and business aviation. Business Acquisition and Name Change On August 31, 2001, Investorlinks.com Inc., a public company incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, and API Electronics Inc. ("API Electronics"), a private company incorporated under the laws of the State of New York, completed the business combination referred to in Note 1(a) to the financial statements. Pursuant to Articles of Amendment dated September 10, 2001, the Company changed its name from Investorlinks.com Inc. to API Electronics Group Inc. As stated in Note 1(a), the business combination has been accounted for as a reverse take-over of the Company by API Electronics. On May 31, 2002 the Company completed the acquisition of all the outstanding common shares of Filtran Inc. ("Filtran USA"), a private company incorporated under the laws of the State of New York; Filtran Limited ("Filtran Canada"), a private company incorporated under the laws of Ontario; Canadian Dataplex Limited ("CDL"), a private company incorporated under the laws of Canada, Tactron Communications (Canada) Limited ("TCCL"), a private company incorporated under the laws of Ontario. Filtran USA, Filtran Canada, CDL, TCCL are known collectively as the "Filtran Group". The Filtran Group's business focus is similar to that of the Company. The business combination, which has been accounted for using the purchase method, is described in Note 1 (b) to the financial statements. Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company (the legal parent), together with its wholly owned subsidiaries, API Electronics and the Filtran Group. Basis of Presentation These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. All amounts are disclosed in US dollars unless otherwise indicated. 5 API Electronics Group Inc. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Unaudited)(Expressed in US Dollars) November 30, 2002 and 2001 Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized when risk and title passes to the customer, which is generally upon shipment of the product. Revenues from contracts are recognized on the percentage of completion basis, measured by the percentage of contract costs incurred to date compared to estimated total contract costs for each contract. Inventory Raw materials are recorded at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Finished goods and work in process are stated at the lower of cost, which includes material, labour and overhead, and net realizable value. Cost is generally determined on a first-in, first-out basis. Capital Assets Capital assets are recorded at cost less accumulated amortization and are amortized using the straight-line basis over the following years: Buildings 20 years Computer equipment 3 years Computer software 3 years Furniture and fixtures 5 years Machinery and equipment Ranging from 5 to 10 years Website development 3 years Goodwill Effective January 2002, the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants issued new accounting standards relating to accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in business combinations. Goodwill will no longer be required to be amortized, but is now subject to an annual test for impairment. Any impairment in the value of the goodwill is written off against earnings. Prior to 2002, goodwill was amortized on a straight-line basis over 5 years. Intangible Assets Intangible assets that have a finite life are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The non-compete agreement is amortized using the straight-line basis over 5 years. Income taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Under this method, future income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and available loss carryforwards. A valuation allowance is established to reduce tax assets if it is more likely than not that all or some portions of such tax assets will not be realized. 6 API Electronics Group Inc. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Unaudited)(Expressed in US Dollars) November 30, 2002 and 2001 Foreign Currency Translation The consolidated financial statements are stated in United States dollars, "the reporting currency". The transactions of the Company have been recorded during the period in Canadian dollars. The translation of Canadian dollars into United States dollars have been made at the year end exchange rate for monetary balance sheet items, the historical rate for non-monetary balance sheet items, and the average exchange rate for the year for revenues, expenses, gains and losses. The gains or losses on translation are included in net income (loss) for the year. The Filtran Group is a self-sustaining group that is translated at current rates of exchange. All exchange gains and losses are accumulated in the foreign exchange translation account on the balance sheet. The foreign exchange translation amount at November 30, 2002 was ($27,632). Accounting Estimates The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. By their nature, these estimates are subject to uncertainty and the effect on the consolidated financial statements of changes in such estimates in future periods could be material. Advertising Costs The Company's policy is to expense advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising expenses included in selling expenses is $1,803 (2001 - $14,535). Stock-Based Compensation Plans The Company has a stock-based compensation plan that is described in Note 9(d). No compensation expense is recognized for these plans when stock or stock options are issued to employees. Any consideration paid on the exercise of options or purchase of stock is credited to share capital. 7 API Electronics Group Inc.

Each unit consists of one common share and 1/2 of one Series A common share purchase warrants exercisable at $0.45 per share expiring February 28, 2003 and 1/2 of one Series B common share purchased warrant exercisable at $ 0.75 expiring August 30, 2003. As a result of the transaction, the original shareholders of API Electronics owned 60% of the issued shares of the Company.

It is anticipated that the purchase will be an all cash acquisition in the amount of $3,000,000 with adjustments if certain sales revenues are not met. Although the acquisition is expected to close in early 2003, there can be no assurance that the purchase will be consummated. The acquisition is also contingent upon a minimum private placement financing of $2.4 million which was announced December 19, 2002. Under the terms of the financing, a minimum of 6 million units (and up to 8 million) will be offered with each unit consisting of one common share at $0.40 per share and a half-share purchase warrant. Each full share purchase warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one common share at a price of $0.60 for a period of two years following closing. 19
