The Company and its representatives may from time to time make written or oral
forward-looking statements, including statements contained in the Company's
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in its reports to
stockholders. In connection with the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company is hereby identifying
information that is forward-looking, including, without limitation, statements
regarding the Company's future financial performance, the effect of government
regulations, national and local economic conditions, the competitive environment
in which the Company operates, results or success of discussions with other
entities on mergers, acquisitions, or alliance possibilities and expansion of
product offering. Actual results may differ materially from those described in
the forward-looking statement. The Company cautions that the foregoing list of
important factors is not exclusive. The Company does not undertake to update any
forward-looking statement that may be made from time to time by or on behalf of
the Company either oral or written.

of a normal recurring nature and are necessary to present fairly the Company's

At September 30, 1999, the Company had net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards of
approximately $3,601,000 for federal income tax purposes expiring in varying
amounts through 2019. The NOL carryforwards, which are available to offset
future profits of the Company and are subject to limitations should a "change in
ownership" as defined in the Internal Revenue Code occur, will begin to expire
in 2001 if not utilized. Additionally, the Company has general business tax
credit carryforwards of $174,109 which will begin to expire in 1999.

SFAS 109 requires that the tax benefit of such NOLs be recorded using current
tax rates as an asset to the extent management assesses the utilization of such
NOLs to be more likely than not. Management has determined that future taxable
income of the Company will likely not be sufficient to realize the recorded
deferred tax asset of $1,307,000. As such, the Company has recorded a valuation
allowance of $1,307,000.

Realization of the future tax benefits of the NOL carryforwards is dependent on
a Company's ability to generate taxable income within the carryforward period.
In assessing the likelihood of utilization of existing NOL carryforwards,
management considered the historical results of continuing operations, the
current economic environment in which the Company operates, and the


                                      -7-
<PAGE>


projected results of the Company's cost-cutting measures as well as sales
projections. Management did not consider any non-routine transactions in
assessing the likelihood of realization of the recorded deferred tax asset.

7.   During the six months ended September 30, 1999, the company issued an
     aggregate of 75,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock as a form of
     compensation to retain the Hudson Consulting Group, Inc. to assist the
     Company in acquisitions and mergers and assist with creating a market for
     the securities of the Company.

8.   During the quarter ended September 30, 1999, the Company issued 20,000
     shares of Common Stock to Mr. Mazin under the 1985 Employee Stock Option
     Plan for consideration of $18,750.00.

9.   Net earnings (loss) per share is based on the weighted average number of
     shares outstanding during each of the respective periods. Common Stock
     equivalents are excluded from the calculation of weighted average shares
     outstanding as their effect is immaterial or antidilutive.

Item 2.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net sales for the second fiscal quarter ended September 30, 1999 increased
approximately 12% to $472,000 from $423,000 in the year-earlier period. Net
sales for the six months ended September 30, 1999 increased approximately 14% to
$996,000 from $875,000 in the year-earlier period. Since the loss of the
Company's major customer in fiscal 1997, the Company has been pursuing new
customers as well as increasing business with its existing customers.

Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales has increased during the second
fiscal quarter ended September 30, 1999. The increase primarily relates to an
increase in the material cost of the gases used in the Company's principal
selling product line of compressed gas dusters.

During April 1999, the Company signed an agreement with the Hudson Consulting
Group, Inc. to assist the Company in acquisitions and mergers and assist with
creating a market for the securities of the Company. The Company agreed to issue
shares of its Common Stock to the Hudson Consulting Group as a retainer. During
the first quarter ended June 30, 1999 the Company issued 37,500 shares. During
the quarter ended September 30, 1999 the Company issued an additional 37,500
shares. Included in Selling, General and Administrative for the six months ended
September 30, 1999 is $52,732 consulting expense which represents the value of
an aggregate of 75,000 shares issued.

In August 1999, one of the Company's customers filed a Chapter 11 Bankruptcy
Petition. This customer accounted for less than 10% of the Company's net sales.
Included in Selling, General and Administrative Expenses for the quarter ended
September 30, 1999, is a $60,000 allowance for doubtful receivables.

The Company continues to tightly control expenditures. During the first quarter
ended June 30, 1999 it successfully found a sub-tenant to occupy a portion of
its facility, thereby helping to reduce the Company's overhead costs.

PerfectData's management continues its discussions with potential merger and
joint venture entities and continues to seek strategic growth opportunities.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The cash position at September 30, 1999 is $1,045,000 including certificates of
deposit of $255,000. The Company has a current ratio of 10 to 1 and no
outstanding bank debt.

Management believes that the Company's liquidity and working capital
requirements are adequate to fund the Company's Operations and Capital
requirements for the 2000 fiscal year.

YEAR 2000 UPDATE

In 1998, the Company established and began to implement a program to address the
Year 2000 issue. The Year 2000 program included the implementation of previously
planned systems as well as specific Year 2000 programs. All programs are on
track for completion before the year 2000 with various applications being
upgraded or replaced as needed. The Company does not expect the Year 2000
program to have a material impact on its results of operations, liquidity, or
financial condition. Additionally, the Year 2000 program has not deferred any
other company projects that will have a material impact on its results of
operations, liquidity, or financial condition.

IT SYSTEMS

In 1998, with the development of the Year 2000 program the Company began
undertaking changes to bring compliant systems and accompanying methodology on
board.

The IT systems have been inventoried and the necessary Year 2000 upgrades,
replacements and retrofits identified. These projects are presently in various
stages of analysis, development and implementation. The Year 2000 program is
currently scheduled to be completed by the fourth quarter of 1999.

NON-IT SYSTEMS

Non-IT Systems may contain date sensitive embedded technology requiring the Year
2000 upgrades. Examples of this technology include security equipment such as
access and alarm systems, as well as facilities equipment such as heating and
air conditioning units.

The Company is a product manufacturer; therefore the "embedded chip" issue
relates to production line components as well as to the equipment used by the
Company. Production line components and facilities and equipment are being
inventoried and assessments are in progress.

COSTS

The total cost associated with required modifications to become Year 2000
compliant is not expected to be material to the Company's results of operations,
liquidity and financial condition. The estimated total cost of the Year 2000
effort is expected to be under $20,000. This estimate does not include the cost
of the Company's previously planned business systems upgrades, which have not
been accelerated due to the Year 2000 problem.

RISKS AND CONTINGENCY PLANNING

The Company has identified and assessed the areas that may result in an
interruption in, or failure of, certain normal business operations or
activities. Such failures could materially and adversely affect the Company's
results of operations, liquidity and financial condition. 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, the Company is
unable to


                                      -10-
<PAGE>


determine at this time whether the consequences of the Year 2000 failures will
have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, liquidity or
financial condition. The Year 2000 program is expected to significantly reduce
the Company's level of uncertainty about the Year 2000 problem. The Company
believes that through its Year 2000 program, the possibility of significant
interruptions of normal business operations should be reduced.

Readers are cautioned that forward looking statements contained in the Year 2000
Update should be read in conjunction with the Company's disclosures under the
heading "Forward Looking Statements".
