                   Certified Public Accountants' Review Report




Board of Directors
Innova Pure Water, Inc.
Clearwater, Florida

We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of Innova Pure Water, Inc. as of
March 31, 2000 and the related statements of operations, changes in
stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the three and nine months then ended.
All information included in these financial statements is the responsibility of
the management of Innova Pure Water, Inc.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial
information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial
data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting
matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the
expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.
Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying financial statements for them to be in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

1.   FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of (a) the results of

nine-month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, have been made.

The unaudited financial statements and notes are presented as permitted by Form
10-QSB. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included
in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been omitted. The accompanying financial statements
and notes should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements
and notes of the Company for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1999. The results of
operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended March 31, 2000 are not

2.   CONTINGENCIES

The Company was the plaintiff in a patent infringement and unfair competition
lawsuit entitled Innova/Pure Water, Inc. v. Aladdin Sales & Marketing, Inc.,

products infringed the Company's U.S. Patent 5,609,759 and was enforceable.
Damage payments were negotiated, recorded as of June 30, 1999, and paid to the
satisfaction of the Company.

The Company is currently the plaintiff in a second patent infringement lawsuit

Inc. d/b/a Safari Outdoor Products, Defendant; Case No. 99-1781-Civ-T-23F filed
by the Company on August 4, 1999. The case was filed with the U.S. District
Court, Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division. The Company has claimed
patent infringement of U.S. Patent 5,609,759 on the part of the Defendants.

Year 2000
- ---------

The "Year 2000" issue is the result of computer programs being written using two
digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Programs with this
problem may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the Year
2000, resulting in system failures or miscalculations. Given this uncertainty,
the Company has recognized the need to remain vigilant in its Year 2000
analysis.

Determination of Year 2000 Readiness
- ------------------------------------

The Company has completed a review of its information technology (IT) and
non-information technology systems (non-IT). An inventory was taken of the
Company's essential data processing equipment as well as the equipment used in
the Company's manufacturing processes.

The Company has information on the Year 2000 compliance of its essential data
processing hardware, which include its computers, printers, scanners, modems,
copiers, and facsimile machines or any other equipment that may process date
data. This information was gathered by actual testing by the Company or from the
manufacturer either by direct correspondence or information that is available
from the manufacturer's Internet website. The Company has found that all
essential data processing hardware is Year 2000 compliant.

A review of the Company's essential data processing equipment firmware and
software has found it to be either Year 2000 compliant when it was purchased or
was able to be fixed by the download of a "patch" from the software
manufacturer's Internet website.

A review of the equipment used in the Company's manufacturing processes did not
find any potential problem areas due to date processing, including embedded
technologies. The potential for problems occurring in this area is decreased
because the Company essentially assembles complete components from outside
manufacturers into its finished products.

The manufacturer of the Company's telephone equipment does not list our
particular system as Year 2000 compliant. The flaw concerns the printing out of
voicemail reports where the year would be listed as 00 instead of 2000. Since
the system should operate fine after January 1, 2000 and the Company does not
use this particular reporting function, it is not necessary to replace the
telephone system. This was the only potential problem area found in the review
of the Company's non-information technology systems. The telephone system has
worked normally since January 1, 2000.

As a result of these reviews, the Company feels that we are Year 2000 compliant
and that nothing further must be done to our IT and non-IT systems in order to
be prepared for the Year 2000 internally.

An assessment of external risks, which are outside the Company's control, was
conducted. The Company has identified four major suppliers and two major
customers that were contacted and asked to fill out a questionnaire about their
Year 2000 capabilities and remediation programs. All but one responded that they
were Year 2000 compliant. The Company feels that the one unresponsive supplier
could be replaced without any major interruption to the business should the need
arise.

A survey of the Company's financial institution and utility companies, by direct
correspondence, Internet website, or published statements, found that they are
or will be Year 2000 compliant by December 31, 1999 with little risk of service
interruption due to untested systems or processes.

The Company's computer systems did not encounter any Year 2000 related problems
on January 1, 2000. All internal system clocks have the correct time and date,
and no problems have occurred with any of them to date.

Contingencies
- -------------

The Company determined that it did not need to have increased inventory levels
on December 31, 1999 or need to purchase any additional liability insurance due
to any litigation that may result from the Year 2000 changeover.

The Company feels that the continued internal risk of a Year 2000 system failure
is minimal, but has taken the following steps in order to recover from such a
failure:

1.   All records were backed up before the end of business on December 31, 1999.
2.   Some essential systems had their internal system clocks turned back two
     weeks and were maintained in December 1999 "time" until a determination
     could be made to see if there were any system failures, related to the Year
     2000 changeover, on similar systems on January 1, 2000. This could have
     caused an error in date reporting, but essential services were still
     performed. There were no Year 2000 problems encountered on January 1, 2000
     and all internal system clocks have been returned to the correct time and
     date. There will be no errors in date reporting.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Sales
- ---------

Net sales for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 totaled $55,600, a
decrease of 92 percent from the $667,800 of net sales for the comparable period
in 1999. Net sales for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2000 totaled
$190,700, a 92 percent decrease from the $2,462,300 of net sales for the
comparable period in 1999. This decrease in sales for both the three- and
nine-month periods ended March 31, 2000 is attributable to the decision by
Newell, after the acquisition of Rubbermaid, to alter priorities away from water
filtration and other new programs to concentrate on Rubbermaid's historic core
business.

Cost of Sales
- -------------

For the three months ended March 31, 2000, the cost of sales decreased to
$46,900 from the $304,000 of costs for the three months ended March 31, 1999.
This decrease is mainly due to the decrease in sales.


<PAGE>   14



Gross profit margin decreased 38 percent for the three months ended March 31,
2000 to a gross profit margin of 16 percent, from an overall gross profit margin
of 54 percent for the three months ended March 31, 1999. This is principally
attributable to the lower sales volume that had to absorb the fixed costs of
manufacturing.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2000, the costs of sales decreased to
$156,500 from the $1,299,200 of costs for the nine months ended March 31, 1999.
This decrease is mainly due to the decrease in sales.

Operating Expense
- -----------------

Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2000 were $335,700,
which is comparable to the $339,400 of operating expenses for the similar period
last year.

Operating expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2000 were $992,800, or
521 percent of net sales. For the comparable period in 1999, operating costs
amounted to $1,100,900, or 45 percent of net sales. The 476 percent increase is
due to the decrease in sales.

Other Income
- ------------

For the three months ended March 31, 2000, net interest income amounted to
$2,200 as compared to net interest income of $9,800 for the three months ended
March 31, 1999. This decrease is due to the decrease in cash invested in
interest bearing securities or accounts with a major national bank.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2000, net interest income amounted to
$12,400 as compared to net interest income of $31,600 for the nine months ended
March 31, 1999. Again, this decrease is attributable to the decrease in cash.

Other income for the nine months ended March 31, 2000 of $7,400 was due to a
distribution from a trust fund administered by a law firm that represents the
Company.

Income Taxes
- ------------

Due to the Company's history of operating losses, management has established a
valuation allowance in the full amount of the deferred tax assets arising from
these losses because management believes it is more likely than not that the
Company will not generate sufficient taxable income within the appropriate
period to offset these operating loss carryforwards.

Net Income
- ----------

Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2000 amounted to $(324,800) as
compared to a net income of $36,600 for the three months ended March 31, 1999.
This increase in the net loss is principally attributable to the reduction in
sales as indicated above.

Net loss for the nine months ended March 31, 2000 amounted to $(938,900), as
compared to net income of $128,800 for the comparable period in 1999. The
decrease in income is primarily a result of the reduction in sales.


<PAGE>   15



Earnings Per Share
- ------------------

For the three months ended March 31, 2000, basic and diluted loss per share
amounted to $(.03). For the comparable period in 1999, basic and diluted loss
per share amounted to $(.00). The increase in loss per share is due principally
to a decrease in income during the three months ended March 31, 2000.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2000, basic and diluted loss per share
amounted to $(.09). For the comparable period in 1999, basic and diluted
earnings per share amounted to $.01. This turnaround is due to a decrease in
income between comparable periods.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Operating Activities
- --------------------

For the nine months ended March 31, 2000, net cash used by operating activities
amounted to $374,400, a decrease from the net cash provided by operating
activities of $511,500 for the comparable period in 1999. The decrease in cash
used is primarily a result of the reduction in sales as indicated above.

Investment Activities
- ---------------------

The Company's investment activities include equipment purchases, litigation
involving patents, and net changes in related party advances.

Net cash used by investing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2000
was $103,500 as compared to net cash used by investing activities of $88,200 for
the comparable period in 1999. The increase in cash expended for investing
activities is due primarily to an increase in advances made to related parties.

Financing Activities
- --------------------

The Company's financing activities include payments on borrowings and capital
leases and the acquisition of treasury stock.

Net cash of $14,000 was used by financing activities for the nine months ended
March 31, 2000 as compared to net cash used by financing activities of $10,500
for the nine months ended March 31, 1999. The slight increase in cash used for
financing activities results from the acquisition of treasury stock.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

At March 31, 2000, the Company does not have any material commitments for
capital expenditures other than for those expenditures incurred in the ordinary
course of business.

The Company believes that its current operations and cash balances will be
sufficient to satisfy its currently anticipated cash requirements for the next
12 months. However, additional capital could be required in excess of the
Company's liquidity, requiring it to raise additional capital through an equity
offering, secured or unsecured debt financing. The availability of additional
capital resources will depend on prevailing market conditions, interest rates,
and the existing financial position and results of operations of the Company.
