NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying  unaudited consolidated 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,  all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals)  considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included.


Earnings per Share

Average common shares outstanding were 30,166,069, which include 9,230,000 to be
issued.  In addition,  there were outstanding  common stock options of 1,000,000
shares at a price of $0.01 per share.  The  computation  of  earnings  per share
reflecting the exercise of these options is antidilutive.

Income Taxes

No provision  for taxes has been  established  against the income for the period
since the Company has tax-carryforward losses of approximately $3.1 million.

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

The  following  discussion  should  be read in  conjunction  with the  financial
statements appearing elsewhere in this report.


General

Electro-Kinetic Systems, Inc. [EKS or the Company] was formed on April 24, 1972,
under the laws of the State of Pennsylvania. Its corporate office is now located
in Glen Gardner, New Jersey.

The Company  ceased  operations in radon testing in March 1995 and failed in its
subsequent efforts:  environmental insurance (1995), magazine publishing (1996),
visual  communication  technology (1997),  marketing of computer decision models
(1997 and 1998), and desk-top publishing and printing (1995-1998).

The Company's 50% owned  unconsolidated  affiliate,  Printone Media Inc., ceased
operations and filed for  bankruptcy in 1998. As a result of the  acquisition of
Israel Investment Technologies,  Inc. and two affiliates, in September 1995, the
Company acquired certain preliminary designs for developments of computer models
in the fields of medical compliance and electronic book publishing.  The Company
has been unsuccessful in its efforts to exploit these developments.

Results of Operations

The consolidated  financial  statements  include the accounts of Electro-Kinetic
Systems,  Inc. and its wholly owned  subsidiaries.  The Company had no operating
income. The transactions with Advance Knowledge,  Inc., described in full in the
Company's 10-K for the year 1998, has not been finalized.

The Company has included in income:  (i) the  forgiveness of all interest due to
an officer in the amount of $14,700.00  through  December 31, 1998 and $1,500.00
through March 31, 1999;  (ii) the estimated  settlement  of  indebtedness  below
recorded liabilities of $25,828.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working capital  increased from ($147,072) as of December 31, 1998, to ($89,107)
as of June 30, 1999 as a result of cancellation of  indebtedness.  Shareholders'
equity increased from ($167,072) to ($139,819) as of the same dates.

The  Company's  operating  losses  during the past years have been funded by the
sale of its Common  Stock,  by loans from  shareholders,  by the  disposal  of a
subsidiary,  and by settling of indebtedness  below their recorded amounts.  For
the Company to become a viable entity, it must raise sufficient  capital to fund
its  operations.  The  Company is making  continuing  efforts to  negotiate  the
settlement of liabilities. The Company is also seeking merger opportunities, but
there is no assurance of success in these endeavors.
