NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION Meteor Industries, Inc. ("Meteor" or "Company") was incorporated on December 22, 1992, as a Colorado based holding company. In October 1995, Meteor formed Meteor Marketing, Inc. ("Meteor Marketing"), a Colorado corporation, as a wholly owned subsidiary to hold the stock of its petroleum marketing and distribution subsidiaries and to operate the companies. The significant subsidiaries included in Meteor Marketing are: Graves Oil & Butane Co., Inc. ("Graves"), Fleischli Oil Company, Inc. ("Fleischli"), and Tri-Valley Gas Co. ("Tri-Valley"). In addition, Meteor owns Meteor Stores, Inc. ("MSI"), Meteor Holdings LLC ("MHL") and Innovative Solutions and Technologies, Inc. ("IST"). NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, such interim statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes for the year ended December 31, 1998, filed with the Company's Form 10-K. NOTE 3 - EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are calculated taking into account all potentially dilutive securities. A reconciliation of the denominator used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share is presented below. Antidilutive stock options and warrants of 1,611,266 and 958,500 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 respectively, are omitted from the denominator. The numerator is unchanged. The shares available upon exchange of a subsidiary's preferred stock of 1,014,635 and 1,141,514 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, are omitted as they are antidilutive. 9 Three Months Six Months Ended June 30, Ended June 30, 1999 1998 1999 1998 ---- ---- ---- ---- Denominator: Average common shares outstanding 3,423,694 4,098,895 3,423,694 4,103,311 Average dilutive stock options and warrants 10,060 142,115 10,060 142,116 --------- --------- --------- --------- Diluted shares 3,433,754 4,241,010 3,433,754 4,245,427 NOTE 4 - CONTINGENCIES The Company has in escrow at June 30, 1999, 150,000 shares in a Canadian corporation related to the sale of a subsidiary in 1995. The shares are released from escrow depending on various factors related to the sale of the subsidiary. The Company recognized other income for the six months ended June 30, 1999, of $140,000 related to the sale of shares released from escrow during the period. The Company is subject to various federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. Although Company environmental policies and practices are designed to ensure compliance with these laws and regulations, future developments and increasing stringent regulations could require the Company to make additional unforeseen environmental expenditures. Environmental accruals are routinely reviewed on an interim basis as events and developments warrant. The Company is a co-signer on a note for its 50% owned equity investment in Coors Pyramid LLC. The amount payable on the note at June 30, 1999, is $401,336. The Company is a party to certain litigation that has arisen in the normal course of its business and that of its subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, none of this litigation is likely to have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operation. NOTE 5 - BUSINESS SEGMENTS The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") 131, "Disclosure About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," in 1998. The Company operates in six business segments: gasoline, diesel, propane, grease and lubes, convenience store items and other products (anti-freeze, chemicals, food grade oils, services, hardware and miscellaneous items). Senior management evaluates and makes operating decisions about each of these operating segments based on a number of factors. Two of the most significant factors used in evaluating the operating performance are: revenue and gross profit before depreciation as presented below: 10 Three months Six months Ended June 30, Ended June 30, 1999 1998 1999 1998 Net sales Gasoline $10,100 $ 6,646 $15,651 $12,717 Diesel 18,565 14,882 31,298 27,453 Propane 808 630 2,394 1,859 Greases and lubes 5,091 4,826 9,780 9,271 Convenience store items 1,631 1,499 2,933 2,736 Other items 770 1,092 2,059 2,364 Total net sales $36,965 $29,575 $64,115 $56,400 Gross profit, before depreciation Gasoline $ 1,502 $ 1,062 $ 2,280 $ 2,106 Diesel 2,236 1,581 4,039 2,821 Propane 358 176 1,068 514 Greases and lubes 1,000 999 1,982 1,965 Convenience store items 409 376 722 690 Other items 394 553 1,251 1,391 Total gross profit $ 5,899 $ 4,747 $11,342 $ 9,487 Reconciliation to net income: Selling, general and administrative $ 4,570 $ 3,660 $ 8,764 $ 7,345 Depreciation and amortization 529 344 1,009 648 Income from operations 800 743 1,569 1,494 Other income (expense) (241) (104) (371) (247) Income tax expense 206 235 441 459 Minority interest 122 111 245 222 Net income $ 231 $ 293 $ 512 $ 566 The Company does not account for assets by business segment and, therefore, depreciation and amortization are not factors used in evaluating operating performance. NOTE 6 - ACQUISITION On April 30, 1999, the Company completed its acquisition of certain assets of privately held Carroll Oil Company for approximately $1.1 million in cash. In addition, the Company entered into a non-compete agreement with the owner of Carroll Oil Company that resulted in $475,000 of intangibles. The acquisition was financed through cash and short and long-term debt. 11 ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Act of 1995. Such statements are based on management's current expectations and are subject to a number of factors and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. The following discussion of the Company's financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and notes thereto of Meteor, included elsewhere in this document. INTRODUCTION The Company is engaged in the distribution and marketing of refined petroleum products including gasoline, diesel fuel, propane and lubricants. The Company's growth, since its inception in 1992, has been primarily through the acquisition of businesses in the petroleum marketing industry. The Company's strategy is to continue to pursue acquisitions in the fragmented petroleum marketing industry.

The increase in revenue of $7.4 million (25%) is primarily attributable to the Company's acquisitions of Tri-Valley in May 1998, R & R's operations in November 1998 and Carroll Oil's operations in May 1999. Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 was $5.9 million and $4.7 million respectively, an increase of $1.2 million (25.5%). The increase is primarily attributable to acquisitions and an increase in diesel and propane margins.

Gross profit per gallon of propane sold increased to $.24 per gallon for the three months ended June 30, 1999, compared to $.15 per gallon in 1998, primarily due to the addition of the Tri-Valley operations. Greases and Lubes Segment Grease and lube sales increased to $5.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999, compared to $4.8 million in 1998, primarily due to acquisitions and increased sales to mining companies. Gross profit remained constant at $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998. Convenience Store Items Segment Sales of convenience store items increased to $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999, compared to $1.5 million in 1998, primarily due to operating additional locations.

Greases and Lubes Segment Grease and lube sales increased to $9.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999, compared to $9.3 million in 1998, primarily due to acquisitions and increased sales to mining companies.

The increase is primarily related to acquisitions. Depreciation and amortization for the six months ended June 30, 1999, was $1.0 million compared to $.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998.

Income Taxes The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 1999, was $441,000 compared to $459,000 for the same period ended June 30, 1998. The decrease is due to lower income. Net Income Net income for the six months ended June 30, 1999, was $512,000 compared to $566,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998, due to the above described items. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company has a revolving credit facility for $7 million. The credit line is subject to the borrowing base of the Company's subsidiaries, as defined. At June 30, 1999, the borrowing base was approximately $14.6 million and $6.7 million was borrowed against the facility which is recorded as a current liability. The Company was in default during the year on timely filing of financial information with the lender. The lender waived the default. At June 30, 1999, the Company had a net working capital deficit of $.9 million, including cash and restricted cash totaling $3.1 million.

Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999, compared to $3.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998. This decrease in cash provided by operating activities is principally related to changes in working capital items. Net cash used by investing activities totaled $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999, compared to cash used of $3.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998. This decrease in cash used by investing activities is principally related to the purchase of Tri-Valley in 1998 offset by higher purchases of property, plant and equipment in 1999. 15 Net cash used by financing activities totaled $.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999, compared to cash provided of $.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The decrease is due to borrowings and repayments on debt facilities in both years, the purchasing of treasury stock in 1998, offset by restricted cash increases in 1999 as a result of timing differences. The Company has various loans with banks, suppliers and individuals which require principal payments of $1.5 million in 1999. The Company is obligated to pay lease costs of approximately $1.1 million in 1999 for land, building, facilities and equipment. A subsidiary of the Company has preferred stock outstanding which requires no periodic payments but accrues an 8% dividend and must be redeemed for $3.5 million plus accrued dividends at the holder's request any time after September 15, 2000, unless earlier converted into common stock pursuant to its terms. This preferred stock is treated as a minority interest on the balance sheet and recorded at its discounted value plus accrued dividends. The Company is responsible for any contamination of land it owns or leases. However, the Company may have limitations on any potential contamination liabilities as well as claims for reimbursement from third parties. For the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, the Company expended $91,000 and $54,000, respectively, for site assessment and related cleanup costs. The Company has accrued $143,000 for environmental remediation which management believes is adequate to cover known remediation requirements. YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE Meteor's company wide Year 2000 Project ("Project") is proceeding on schedule. The Project is addressing the issue of computer programs and embedded computer chips being unable to distinguish between the year 1900 and the year 2000. The Project covers information systems infrastructure (including hardware and software), operating systems and significant vendors and customers. Meteor and its subsidiaries have no proprietary software. The Company has been evaluating its embedded technology and at the present time has no indication of significant problems. Meteor does not expect to incur any significant costs updating its systems to become Year 2000 compliant. In 1997, in order to improve access to business information through common, integrated computing systems across the company, Meteor began a company wide systems replacement project with systems that use programs primarily from EDS, Inc. ("EDS"). The vendor has informed the Company that the new systems are Year 2000 compliant. The new systems, which are expected to make approximately ninety-five percent of the company's business information systems Year 2000 compliant are fully implemented. Remaining business software programs are expected to be made Year 2000 compliant through the Project. Meteor relies on third party suppliers for raw materials, water, utilities and other key services. Interruption of supplier operations due to Year 2000 issues could affect Company operations. The Company has initiated efforts to evaluate the status of suppliers' efforts and to determine alternatives and contingency plan requirements. While approaches to reducing risks of interruption due to supplier failures will vary by business and facility, 16 options include identification of alternative suppliers and accumulation of inventory to assure sales capacity where feasible and warranted. Meteor is also dependent upon customers for sales and cash flow. Year 2000 interruptions in customers' operations could result in reduced sales, increased inventory or receivable levels and cash flow reductions. While these events are possible, Meteor's customer base is broad enough to minimize the effects of a single occurrence. Meteor is, however, taking steps to monitor the status of customers as a means for determining risks and alternatives. Due to the general uncertainty inherent in the Year 2000 problem, resulting in part from the uncertainty of the Year 2000 readiness of third-party suppliers and customers, the Company is unable to determine at this time whether the consequences of Year 2000 failures will have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, liquidity or financial condition. The Project is expected to significantly reduce the Company's level of uncertainty about the Year 2000 problem and, in particular, about the Year 2000 compliance and readiness of it's significant suppliers and customers. Meteor believes that, with the implementation of new information systems and completion of the Project as scheduled, the possibility of significant interruptions of normal operations should be reduced. The Company's Y2K readiness program is an ongoing process; the estimated completion dates and costs of the Y2K readiness program are subject to change. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 1.
