        This Report contains certain forward-looking statements of the intentions,
hopes, beliefs, expectations, strategies, and predictions of Surgical Safety
Products, Inc. or its management with respect to future activities or other
future events or conditions within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended. These statements are usually identified by the use of words such as
"believes," "will," "anticipates," "estimates," "expects," "projects," "plans,"
"intends," "should," "could," or similar expressions. Investors are cautioned
that all forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainty, including,
without limitation, variations in quarterly results, volatility of Surgical

ability of Surgical Safety Products, Inc. to retain management, to implement its
business strategy, to assimilate and integrate any acquisitions, to retain
customers or attract customers from other businesses and to successfully defend
itself in ongoing and future litigation. Although Surgical Safety Products, Inc.
believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements

uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our actual results to differ
materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements.

                         SURGICAL SAFETY PRODUCTS, INC.
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  June 30, 2003
                                   (UNAUDITED)


(1) Basis Of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
("GAAP") for interim financial information and Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B.
They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for
complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
of the financial statements. The reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period may be affected by the estimates and assumptions
management is required to make. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries - C5 Health, Inc. and Power3 Medical,
Inc. Inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in
consolidation.

The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of
December 31, 2002 and for the two years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001,
including notes thereto included in the Company's December 31, 2002 Form 10-KSB.

On July 8, 2003, the Company's board of directors authorized and approved a 50:1
reverse stock split of all authorized shares of common stock as originally
contemplated. This stock split, which is subject to approval of the Company's
shareholders, will not impact and/or reduce the number of shares that may be
issued as a result of the exercise of certain warrants and/or conversion of
preferred shares or the issuance of 50,000 restricted shares (see Note 6).
Assuming the stock split is approved, all references to the number of shares and
par value in future financial statements and notes thereto will be adjusted to
reflect the stock split for all periods presented.

The Company's financial statements are presented on a going concern basis, which
contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the
normal course of business. The Company has experienced recurring losses from
operations and has stockholders' and working capital deficits of $1,156,361 at
June 30, 2003.



                                       7




The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon its
ability to attain profitable operations by securing financing and implementing
its business plan and the successful integration of an operating business. In
addition, the Company's ability to continue as a going concern must be
considered in light of the problems, expenses and complications frequently
encountered by entrance into established markets and the competitive environment
in which the Company operates. Management's plans include searching for an
appropriate merger and/or acquisition target. In the interim, management will
attempt to fund operations by raising debt or equity capital through borrowings
and/or private placements. However, there is no assurance that the Company will
be successful in their efforts to raise capital and/or to locate a suitable
merger or acquisition target, or that such merger or acquisition can be
accomplished on acceptable terms. These factors, among others, indicate that the
Company may be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of
time.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible
future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts
and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of
the Company to continue as a going concern.

(2) Net Loss Per Share

The Company calculates net income (loss) per share as required by SFAS No. 128,
"Earnings per Share." Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing
net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net
income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive
common stock equivalents outstanding. During the periods when they would be
anti-dilutive common stock equivalents, if any, are not considered in the
computation.

(3) Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109 (FAS 109), "Accounting for Income Taxes", which requires use
of the liability method. FAS 109 provides that deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the tax bases of
assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting
purposes, referred to as temporary differences. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities at the end of each period are determined using the currently enacted
tax rates applied to taxable income in the periods in which the deferred tax
assets and liabilities are expected to be settled, or realized.

The Company's deferred tax asset resulting from net operating loss carryforwards
is fully offset by a valuation allowance. The Company has recorded a valuation
allowance to state its deferred tax assets at estimated net realizable value due
to the uncertainty related to realization of these assets through future taxable
income.

The provision for income taxes differs from the amount computed by applying the
statutory rate of 34% to income before income taxes due to the effect of the net
operating loss.

(5) Stockholders' (Deficit)

On March 31, 2003, the Company's Board of Directors authorized and approved
several resolutions as follows:

o The creation of a 2003 Stock Compensation Plan (for which the maximum
  number of common shares that may be optioned under options and/or warrants
  is 8,000,000) and the filing of Form S-8 to register the shares under the
  2003 Stock Compensation Plan.
o Issuance of $50,000 shares of restricted common stock to Resource Capital
  Management, Inc. as consideration for certain services. The pending 50:1
  reverse stock split will have no impact on the number of shares issued.
o The authorization of a Series A Preferred Stock consisting of 4,000,000
  shares.
o Issuance of 2,660,000 of Series A Preferred Stock in consideration of
  accrued and unpaid salary totaling $200,000 to two officers of the Company.
  Each of the preferred shares are convertible into 10 shares of the
  Company's common stock. The pending 50:1 reverse stock split will have no
  impact on the number of shares issued.
o Issuance of 1,330,000 of Series A Preferred Stock in consideration of
  $100,000 cash by an individual investor. Each of the preferred shares are
  convertible into 10 shares of the Company's common stock. The pending 50:1
  reverse stock split will have no impact on the number of shares issues.
o The incorporation of a subsidiary to be known as Power3 Medical, Inc. to be
  incorporated under the laws of the state of Nevada as a wholly owned
  subsidiary.
o Entering a merger with and into its wholly owned subsidiary known as Power3

In addition, on March 31, 2003 the Company entered a series of consultant
relationships to assist in business development and company and product
acquisitions. These consultant agreements are encompassed in the 2003 Stock
Compensation Plan. These consultants have received warrants for 8,000,000
shares of common stock registered under an S-8 filing on April 15, 2003.
The pending 50:1 reverse stock split will have no impact on the number of
shares allowed to be purchased under these warrants.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

Overview

        The Company's (SSPD: OTCBB) overall mission is the research, development,
production and distribution of innovative products and services for healthcare.
The Company's sole current product is a traditional safety product called
SutureMate(R)surgical safety device. The Company intends to develop additional
products and services relating to providing a safer and more efficient
environment for healthcare workers, manufacturers and patients and to expand its
operations to provide products and services for immediate communication and
access to information in the healthcare industry while complying with expanding
patient confidentiality regulations. However, no additional products are
currently under development and such additional planned products may never be
developed or offered.

        The Company was relatively inactive during much of 2002 and the first and
second quarters of 2003 as it sought a merger partner and working capital to
carry out its business plan. The Company currently has a single product, which
accounts for all of its revenue generating operations. This product, the
SutureMate(R)surgical safety device, a patented, disposable, surgical assist
device, was initially introduced in 1993. The SutureMate(R)surgical safety
device allows the surgeon to use a safer, more efficient method of surgical
stitching and has features to prevent accidental needle sticks and assist in
finishing surgical sutures with one hand, including a foam needle-cushion and a
suture-cutting slot. The Company expects to automate the manufacture of the
SutureMate(R) surgical safety device if sales volume can be increased to
economic levels.

        The Company has other products including patented medical devices and other
non-patented digital products which to date have not been fully developed and
have not created significant revenue. The Company does not presently plan to
further develop these products unless it can secure strategic alliances to
assist in development and commercialization of such products. Because, these
products may never be developed to a state of commercial significance or
viability, the Company is seeking to expand its business through the acquisition
of additional products or additional lines of business that do not require
significant development. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
successful in its efforts.

Corporate Developments

        On March 31, 2003, the Company's board of directors authorized and approved
several resolutions (the "Restructure Plan"). The Restructure Plan includes: the
creation of a 2003 Stock Compensation Plan and filing of Form S-8 to register
the shares under the 2003 Stock Compensation Plan, the authorization of a Series
A Preferred Stock consisting of 4,000,000 shares, issuance of 2,660,000 of
Series A Preferred Stock in consideration of accrued and unpaid salary totaling
$200,000 to officer's Tim Novak and Paul Gray of the Company, issuance of
1,330,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to Mr. Jerry Leonard in
consideration of $100,000 cash (each of the preferred shares are convertible
into 10 shares of the Company's common stock and the pending 50:1 reverse stock
split will have no impact on the number of shares issued), the incorporation of






                                       10




a subsidiary to be known as Power3 Medical, Inc. (which has been incorporated
under the laws of the state of Nevada as a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company), approval of a merger agreement with and into its Power3 Medical, Inc.
subsidiary (which was subsequently removed as part of this transaction), and the
issuance of one share of Power3 Medical, Inc. to the shareholders of the Company
in exchange for each 50 shares of the Company's common stock held on the date of
the merger.

        On July 8, 2003, the Company's board of directors authorized and approved
several resolutions amending the Restructure Plan. The merger into and with
Power3 Medical, Inc., a subsidiary has been cancelled. In addition, the board of
directors authorized and approved a 50:1 reverse stock split of all authorized
shares of common stock as originally contemplated. The stock split is subject to
approval of the Company's shareholders. If approved, all references to the
number of shares and par value in future financial statements and notes thereto
will be adjusted to reflect the stock split as though it had been completed
prior to the first period presented.

        On March 31, 2003 the Company entered a series of consultant relationships
to assist in business development and company and product acquisitions. With the
exception of the 50,000 unregistered shares of common stock to be issued to
Resource Capital Management, Inc. (the first item in the chart below) all of the
agreements are encompassed in the 2003 Stock Compensation Plan as described in
preceding paragraph. In total, the consultants will receive warrants for
8,000,000 shares of common stock registered under the S-8 filing described above
(which number of shares represents the maximum amount of shares that may be
issued under such plan). The following table describes each of the terms of each
such agreements:

        The warrants, and stock awards, issued pursuant to the forgoing consulting
agreements contain provisions that would prevent the reduction in the number of
shares of stock that would be issued upon a reverse split, combination,
reclassification or other reduction in the number of shares of the Company
outstanding.

During the three months ended June 30, 2003, the following related party
transactions occurred:

o Notes payable to the Company's President and CFO aggregating $26,000, and
  related accrued interest payable, of $7,193 were paid.
o A stockholder infused $8,000.
o Stockholder advances of $3,000 infused during the quarter ended March 31,
  2003 were paid.
o Stockholder advances of $34,500 were converted to notes payable bearing
  interest at between 10% and 12% per annum with one year repayment terms.
  The notes are unsecured. Total interest recorded during the period on these
  notes approximated $3,750.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2003 and 2002

        Revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 were $23,146 compared to
$6,803 for the same period last year, an increase of $16,343. The increase is
attributable to an increase in sales of the SutureMate(R)surgical safety device
during the second quarter of 2003.

        Interest expense decreased by $18,306 to $10,792 for the quarter ended June
30, 2003 compared to $29,098 for the same period last year. The decrease
resulted primarily because certain debt was converted to equity in December
2002, and certain other debt was considered extinguished as of December 31,
2002.

        Other operating expenses decreased by $98,747 to $94,504 for the quarter




                                       12




ended June 30, 2003 compared to $193,251 for the same period last year. This
decrease is mainly due to decreased payroll accruals and a decrease of rent
expense as a result of the termination of the company's previous office
location.

        Net loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 was $93,110 compared to
$290,052 for the same period last year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        As of June 30, 2003 the Company has minimal cash or current assets. In
addition it has a stockholders' deficit of $1,156,361 on June 30, 2003.

        Based on its current operating plan, the Company believes that its existing
resources together with cash generated from operations will not be sufficient to
satisfy the Company's contemplated working capital requirements for the next
fiscal year. The Company anticipates that it will need to raise capital through
the sale of equity interests or borrow funds to sustain its operations. The
Company has no agreements, commitments or understandings with respect to such
debt or equity financing at this time.

        The Company has no commitments for capital expenditures at this time.


                           Part II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

        On March 25, 2002, the Company agreed to pay IBM $20,000 on or before May
31, 2002 as settlement for certain litigation. The settlement was predicated on
the Company paying this amount by May 31, 2002. However, the Company was unable
to pay these funds, and as such, the settlement amount was increased to $100,000
plus interest commencing June 1, 2002. The Company is liable to IBM for $100,000
plus statutory interest from June 1, 2002 as it has missed its threshold payment
date. The Company believes that this settlement was in the best interest of the
Company and its shareholders as it minimized the potential exposure should the
Company have been unsuccessful at trial. The Company charged the additional
$80,000 due to the vendor to operations during 2002.

On January 30, 1998, the Company entered into an agreement with a health care
provider (the "Provider") in which the Provider was to perform clinical testing
of ten surgical or medical products submitted by the Company. The agreement,
which has been personally guaranteed by the Company's predecessor CEO, expired
on January 30, 2003 and required the Company to pay the Provider a fixed amount
of $25,000 for each of the ten studies. The agreement further provided that the
Company was obligated to pay the $250,000 even if the Company elected to forego
having the Provider perform the clinical testing. The Company has not submitted
any products for clinical testing during the term of the agreement and/or paid
any amounts due under this arrangement. For various reasons, the Provider has
effectively agreed to waive their rights under the agreement provided that the
Company either (1) enters into a new profit participation agreement with the





                                       13




Company under which the Provider would receive no less than $250,000 within a
four year period commencing on the date of such agreement or (2) makes an
immediate payment of $50,000 to the Provider. As a result thereof, the Company
has recorded a $50,000 liability as of December 31, 2002, which amount
represents the probable amount of the liability existing at such time. If the
Company elects to enter a new profit participation agreement, the new agreement
is expected to retain the existing personal guaranty of the Company's previous
CEO. Neither the Company nor the Provider has filed any litigation relating to
this contract.

        The Company knows of no other significant legal proceedings to which it is
a party or to which any of its property is the subject or any unsatisfied
judgments against the Company and knows of no other material legal proceedings
which are pending, threatened or contemplated.

Item 2. Changes in Securities

None

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities

None

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

        No matters were submitted to the security holders for a vote during the
quarter ended June 30, 2003.

Item 5. Controls and Procedures

        Based on their evaluation, as of a date within 90 days of the filing date
of this Form 10-QSB, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Rule 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended) are effective. There have been no significant changes in
internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these
internal controls subsequent to the date of this evaluation, including any
corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material
weaknesses.
