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.
