                          (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)

                     NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                            JUNE 30, 1998 (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The interim financial information of BOLDER Technologies Corporation (the
"Company" or "BOLDER") for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1998
is unaudited, but includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
entries) which the Company's management believes to be necessary for the fair
presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the
periods presented. The accompanying interim financial statements should be read
in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the year
ended December 31, 1997 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the Securities and Exchange
Commission rules and regulations. Interim results of operations for the three
and six-month periods ended June 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of
operating results to be expected for the full year.

The Company has received certain payments in connection with its strategic
agreement with Johnson Controls, Inc. ("JCI"). These payments, which have been
recorded as deferred revenue, are consideration to the Company for certain
services provided to JCI to transfer appropriate technical information to JCI as
specified in the agreement. The Company is recognizing revenue as services are
performed, using the percentage of completion method. These revenues and others
related to JCI totaled approximately 80% and 78% of total research and
development services revenues during the three and six months ended June 30,
1998, respectively, as compared to 54% and 67% for the three and six months
ended June 30, 1997.

In 1998, the Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income, " which requires companies to report and
display comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements. For
the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, and inception to
date, comprehensive income does not differ from net loss.

The Company has computed earnings per share in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," which the Company
adopted in 1997. Also, the Company has adopted the guidance of the Securities
and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98 and related
interpretations. Accordingly, the Company has presented basic earnings per share
for each period presented. Diluted net loss per common share is not presented,
as the effect of common equivalent shares from stock options and warrants is
antidilutive.

The following table provides additional information regarding the computation of
basic earnings per share for the three and six months ending June 30, 1998:

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
         CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Except for the historical information contained herein, this report may contain
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including
manufacturing risks associated with implementing new process technology, testing
and validating the new production line, achieving commercial-scale manufacturing
levels, achieving consistent yields and quality, uncertainty of market
acceptance, as well as other risks detailed from time to time in the Company's
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company's
registration statement on Form S-3 filed on December 5, 1997, as amended through
February 19, 1998; the report on Form 8-K filed February 12, 1998; and the Form
10-K filed March 30, 1998. These risks, particularly those associated with the
Company's implementation of its new manufacturing line and processes, (i) have
materially and adversely affected, and may in the future materially and
adversely affect, the Company's results and (ii) have caused and may in the
future cause such results to differ materially from those expressed in any
forward-looking statements made by BOLDER.


GENERAL

Since its inception in March 1991, BOLDER Technologies Corporation (the
"Company") has been a development stage company, principally engaged in the
research and development of its Thin Metal Film ("TMF(R)") battery technology,
and has devoted significant resources to the development of its technology and
processes to manufacture its TMF batteries. In May 1997, the Company moved to a
new leased manufacturing facility and corporate headquarters in Golden,
Colorado. This facility has been designed to accommodate three production lines
and two research and development lines, as well as all of the Company's other
operations. The Company contracted with Wright Industries to manufacture the
first high-volume production line, which will produce sub-C cells. The Company
had disclosed in early February 1998 that the qualification of its first high
volume manufacturing line had proceeded more slowly than originally anticipated
due to the late delivery and installation of equipment and the time involved in
initial debugging of the line. The Company has now completed installation of its
first manufacturing production line, completed certain key modifications, and
demonstrated the fundamental mechanical functionality of the entire line. The
intended cycle times for all individual major unit operations within the
manufacturing process have been attained.

The Company recently began expanded qualification testing of batteries produced
on the first production line. This vigorous testing program will put several
thousand batteries through a wide range of test regimes to simulate actual
applications. Upon the attainment of appropriate test results, the Company
expects to initiate commercial operations with limited shipments to selected
customers later in 1998.

The Company believes that the task of improving the efficiency of its first
production line and the efficiency of the overall manufacturing process will be
an ongoing activity, as with any new process technology, even beyond the start
of commercial operations. Additional modifications could be required from time
to time to realize the optimized production capacity of the line.

As with any new enabling technology, the Company expects to go through a period
of market adoption in which customers test and evaluate the BOLDER TMF
batteries, subsequently designing the batteries into 




                                       9
<PAGE>   10

customer's products. Initially, the Company expects modest product shipments
until significant numbers of customers have completed this process. The Company
expects to generate revenues primarily from the sale of its TMF batteries.

In June 1995, the Company and Johnson Controls, Inc. ("JCI") established a joint
venture (the "Joint Venture") to develop high volume manufacturing technology
for TMF batteries, to manufacture TMF batteries for sale by both partners and to
pursue HEV battery development opportunities for TMF batteries. In 1997, having
substantially completed its primary objective of developing the high volume
manufacturing technology, the Company and JCI announced a new strategic
partnership, which replaced the Joint Venture effective as of July 1996. Under
the terms of the new strategic partnership, which was finalized in July 1997,
each party will separately implement TMF battery-manufacturing facilities to
best meet the unique requirements of the markets addressed by each.

In connection with the agreement to discontinue the Joint Venture, BOLDER
received a cash payment from JCI, as well as all of the tangible net assets of
the Joint Venture. In return, BOLDER granted JCI certain royalty-bearing
licenses and committed to provide certain technology transfer services. All of
the licenses are royalty bearing and certain of the licenses are subject to
minimum royalties and minimum performance criteria. BOLDER and JCI also entered
into a cross supply agreement with commitments to supply the other party with
minimum quantities of TMF battery products for several years.

The Company believes that its results of operations to date may not be
indicative of results in future periods. Future operating results may be
affected by a wide range of factors and may fluctuate significantly from period
to period.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Total revenues decreased to $531,881 and $1,113,026 for the three-and six-month
periods ended June 30, 1998, respectively, from $722,091 and $1,201,838 for the
same periods in 1997. As in previous reporting periods, the majority of revenues
resulted from research and development services ("R&D"). Revenues from product
sales were at nominal levels and are expected to remain at nominal levels until
the beginning of commercial operations. Approximately 80 and 78 percent of the
$527,641 and $1,080,945 of research and development services revenues for the
three-and six month periods ended June 30, 1998, respectively, resulted from the
Company's recognition of revenue from services performed in connection with the
technology transfer arrangement with JCI. This compares to approximately 54 and
67 percent for the same periods in 1997. The remainder of the research and
development services revenues for the three-and six-month periods ended June 30,
1998 and 1997 resulted from customer-funded research and development programs.
The decrease in 1998 R&D revenues compared to the 1997 periods was due to the
completion of a customer-funded product development program in 1997 that
contributed approximately $239,000 of revenues to the 1997 periods. The R&D
revenues associated with the JCI agreement are non-cash items in 1998 and should
be completed by the end of the year. The Company considers R&D revenues as an
insignificant part of the future of the business.

Cost of revenues decreased to $75,734 and $203,526 for the three- and six-month
periods ended June 30, 1998, respectively, from $208,223 and $348,641 for the
same periods in 1997. Most of the decrease in 1998 



                                       10
<PAGE>   11

was due to a reduced scope of activity compared to 1997, directly attributable
to private customer-funded new product development programs.

Research and development expenses increased to $1,830,053 and $3,720,912 for the
three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1998, respectively, from $1,505,899
and $2,524,132 for the same periods in 1997. The increase was primarily due to
additional technical staff and associated expenses, and new manufacturing
facility and production line expenses related to the Company's expanded efforts
to commercialize its sub-C cell and prepare to implement high volume
manufacturing.

General and administrative expenses decreased to $805,957 and $1,635,279 for the
three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 1998, respectively, as compared to
$861,426 and $1,954,052 for the same periods in 1997. The primary reason for the
decrease in 1998 was the inclusion for the six-month period ended June 30, 1997
of approximately $210,000 of costs associated with the registration statement
filed in February 1997 and withdrawn in May 1997. The decrease in both the 1998
three- and six-month periods also reflected lower expenses for legal and outside
consulting services than in the prior year.

Selling and marketing expenses decreased to $58,546 and $145,921 for the three-
and six-month periods ended June 30, 1998, respectively, as compared to $80,240
and $159,891 for the same periods in 1997. The 1998 decreases were primarily due
to lower staffing levels and associated expenses than in 1997.

Interest income increased to $262,876 and $506,785 for the three- and six-month
periods ended June 30, 1998, respectively, from $177,946 and $384,218 for the
same periods in 1997. This increase was due to larger invested cash balances in
1998, primarily resulting from the Company's private placement in October 1997
and proceeds from debt financing in March 1998.

Interest expense increased to $379,486 and $613,522 for the three and six-month
periods ended June 30, 1998, respectively, from $120,874 and $137,032 for the
same periods in 1997. The increases in 1998 were due to increased levels of
lease and debt financing.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

From its inception through June 30, 1998, the Company has financed its
operations and met its capital requirements primarily through private and public
offerings of its equity securities, raising net proceeds of $52.5 million from
sales of these securities. The Company has also received net proceeds of $12.3
million from a debt agreement with Transamerica Business Credit Corporation. At
June 30, 1998, the Company's balances of cash, cash equivalents, and
available-for-sale securities totaled $17.7 million, compared to $20.4 million
at December 31, 1997.

In October 1997, the Company received approximately $15.8 million in net
proceeds from the private placement of 336,200 shares of Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock. The first dividend payment, in the form of shares of the
Company's common stock, was made on March 13, 1998, resulting in the issuance of
77,985 shares of the Company's common stock. The total amount of this dividend
payment, representing the period from October 8, 1997 through March 12, 1998,
was $642,464. An additional dividend payment, in the form of shares of the
Company's common stock, was made on June 30, 1998. This resulted in the 



                                       11
<PAGE>   12

issuance of 36,704 shares. The total value of the dividend payment, which
covered the period from March 13, 1998 through June 30, 1998, was $449,668.

In March 1998, the Company obtained loan proceeds of $5.2 million from its debt
agreement with Transamerica Business Credit Corporation ("TBCC"). The Company
has no additional financing available from the TBCC debt agreement. The
remaining loan balance, which is collateralized by tenant improvements and the
high volume production line, is $10.7 million at June 30, 1998.

As of June 30, 1998, the Company had made progress payments of $11.0 million to
fund the construction of its first high-volume production line, of which $8.0
million were financed through its debt agreement with TBCC. The Company's
remaining liability of $0.4 million to the supplier of the production line is
payable upon specific vendor performance. The Company invested $0.4 and $0.8
million during the three- and six months ended June 30, 1998 in leasehold
improvements, machinery, equipment, and office furnishings to support its new
facility and its development, production, sales, and administrative activities.

Except as noted above, the Company currently has no other significant capital
commitments other than its commitments under notes payable. The Company believes
that its existing sources of liquidity and projected cash generated from future
operations will satisfy the Company's capital requirements for at least the next
12 months. To provide funds for future production lines, the Company will need
to access additional sources of equity capital or debt. If these financing
sources are not available, then the Company would likely delay any substantial
expansion of fully-automated manufacturing capacity. There can be no assurance
that the Company will generate revenues and operating income sufficient to
satisfy its working capital and equipment expenditure needs in the future. In
addition, the Company is unable to predict the precise amount of future capital
that it may require, and there can be no assurance that any additional financing
will be available to the Company if that need arises or that financing will be
in a form or on terms acceptable to the Company. The inability to generate
revenues and operating income or obtain required financing on acceptable terms
would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial
condition, and results of operations. Consequently, the Company could be
required to significantly reduce or suspend its operations, seek a merger
partner or sell additional securities on terms that could be dilutive to the
Company's stockholders.
