Notes to the Financial Statements
UNAUDITED
NOTE 1 - Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies
a. Organization
The Company was incorporated under the name of Zeppelin Production
Corporation on June 3, 1996 under the laws of the State of Nevada. The
Company was organized to provide aerial photography and advertising
promotion through the use of helium filled remote control blimps,
however operations were never secured.
Pursuant to a plan of reorganization and acquisition agreement,
dated February 15, 1998, the Company acquired Powertek Technology, Inc.
(Powertek) and changed it's name to Power Technology, Inc. Because the
management and operations of Powertek became the management and
operations of Zeppelin, this business combination has been recorded as
a reverse acquisition, thus Powertek is the surviving accounting entity
presented on the financial statements. The historical information
provided in these financial statements prior to the acquisition are
those of Powertek.
Powertek was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on
January 19, 1996. The Company was organized primarily for the purpose
of developing an advanced battery technology for use in the growing
electric car industry. As of the date of these statements, the Company
has been able to advance the battery technology to a proof of principle
stage and is currently seeking additional capital to finance the
development of the technology to a preliminary prototype stage.
b. Recognition of Revenue
The Company recognizes income and expense on the accrual basis of
accounting.
c. Earnings (Loss) Per Share
The computation of earnings per share of common stock is based on
the weighted average number of shares outstanding at the date of the
financial statements.
d. Cash and Cash Equivalents
The company considers all highly liquid investments with
maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

NOTE 1 - Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
e. Provision for Income Taxes
No provision for income taxes have been recorded due to net
operating loss carryforwards totaling approximately $2,023,107 that
will be offset against future taxable income. These NOL carryforwards
will begin to expire in the year 2012. No tax benefit has been reported
in the financial statements because the Company believes there is a 50%
or greater chance the carryforward will expire unused.
f. Organization Costs
Organization expenses are recorded at cost and are being amortized
on a straight-line basis over five years. The expenses represent
pre-incorporation cost to establish the entity and develop various
sales venues.
g. Principles of Consolidation
These financial statements include the books of Power Technology,
Inc (formerly Zeppelin) and its wholly owned subsidiary Powertek
Technologies, Inc. All intercompany transactions and balances have been
eliminated in the consolidation.
h. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and expenses during the reporting
period. In these financial statements, assets, liabilities and expenses
involve extensive reliance on management's estimates. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
NOTE 2 - Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming
that the company will continue as a going concern. The company has had
recurring operating losses for the past several years and is dependent
upon financing to continue operations. The financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.

NOTE 8 - Prior Period Adjustment
An adjustment in the amount of $20,000 has been recorded on the
books as of January 31, 2000. The adjustment is due to an

year.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS.
GENERAL
Power Technology, Inc. (the "Company), a Nevada corporation, was
incorporated on June 3, 1996. However the Company did not conduct any
significant operations until March 1998 when it acquired all of the issued and
outstanding capital stock and assets of PowerTek Technology Corporation, Inc.
(formerly called Power Technology, Inc.) which is presently a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company. The Company changed its corporate name from "Zepplin
Production Corp." to Power Technology, Inc. during March 1998 to reflect the
change in the purposes and nature of its business.
The Company is a research and development company. It is presently
engaged in research and development activities regarding: (1) batteries for the
automotive and electric car industries, (2) electronic sensors, and (3) pipeline
connection technology.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following table sets forth certain operating information regarding

REVENUES. The Company had no revenues during the first six months of
2000 and 1999, and is in the development stage.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. General and administrative
expenses increased approximately 236% to $594,204 in the six month period ended
July 31, 2000, from $251,294 in 1999. This increase is principally attributable
to increased activity in its research and development activities.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS. Research and development costs
increased approximately 353% during the first six months of fiscal 2000 to
$188,373, compared to the first six months of 1999 from $53,324.
<PAGE>
ACCOUNTS PAYABLE - RELATED PARTY. Accounts payable to a related party
decreased from $197,302 at July 31, 1999, to $53,003 at July 31, 2000, an
decrease of approximately 372%. This decrease arose from additional cash loans
to the Company by an affiliated company owned by Lee A. Balak, a director and
President of the Company which were expended primarily for research and
development fees and costs to a research company owned by Alvin A. Snaper, a
director and Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer of the Company.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. The net loss of the Company decreased to
$782,373 during the six month period ended July 31, 2000, as compared with a
loss of $304,618 during the same period of 1999, a reduction of approximately
257%, and was due primarily to the increase in its research and development
activities and lack of revenues.

limitations and other conditions, as requested from time to time by the Company
as its equity capital needs arise during the term of the Agreement.
Upon written notice from the Company, SPE is committed to purchase

securities to SPE.
Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company will be issuing to SPE a

warrants to SPE to purchase a number of shares equal to 10% of each purchase of
shares made by SPE during the term of the Agreement.
The shares of Common Stock and warrants of the Company to be issued to
SPE are covered by a Registration Rights Agreement requiring the Company to file
a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to
register such securities under the Securities Act of 1933.

2000.
