NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2000
NOTE A -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Photon Technology International Inc. (the "Company") is engaged in research,
development, manufacturing, sales and marketing of proprietary electro-optical
systems, which enable customers in health care, environmental science and
industrial process control to perform advance analysis utilizing light. The
Company's major products are electro-optical and light-based instrumentation
which utilizes fluorescence technology. The primary markets are medical life
sciences, physical sciences, environmental and industrial.
The Company operates in one principal industry segment, the photonics industry.
The Company's products are sold on a worldwide basis to universities, research
hospitals, pharmaceutical companies, bio-tech companies, federal and state
government institutions, environmental companies and commercial business, all of
which are primarily engaged in research activities.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Photon Technology
International, Inc. have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States for interim financial information and
with the instructions to Form 10-KSB and Regulation S-B. 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. Operating results for the
three-month period ended September 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of
the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30, 2001. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in the Company's annual report or Form 10-KSB for the year
ended June 30, 2000.
NOTE B -- COMPARATIVE AMOUNTS
Certain comparative amounts in the prior year have been reclassified to conform
to the presentation adopted in the current fiscal year.
NOTE C -- LONG TERM DEBT
On October 31, 1995, the Company completed a $1,100,000 ($1,500,000 Canadian)
financing agreement in the form of subordinated debt with C.I.-C.P.A. Business
Ventures Fund, Inc., a venture capital fund of Covington Capital Corporation.
This subordinated debt has a term of five years and bears interest at 12% per
annum, compounded monthly. This agreement included a first option for 83,333
shares of common stock of the Company at $3.75 per share for a term of five
years. (These expired October 31, 2000.) The Company granted a security interest
in all of the Company's right, title and interest in all accounts and proceeds.
This collateral is subordinated to the bank debt with Silicon Valley Bank and
ranks equally in priority with the subordinated promissory note payable to MLTV.
Covington Capital Corporation has agreed not to demand repayment as long as
principal repayments are not made on the MLTV debt facility. The Company's plan
is to continue to adhere to the current debt repayment schedule by remitting to
the lender monthly principal payments of $4,165 ($6,250 Canadian), plus
interest, beyond the October 2000 payoff date

ITEM 2 -- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------
Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2000 of $1.6 million
decreased $376,000, or 18.7%, compared to the same periods of fiscal 2000. These
decreases reflect the impact of the PhotoMed sale offset by a higher sales order
backlog in the current fiscal year carried over from fiscal 2000.
Net sales for the North American sales offices for the quarter ended September
30, 2000 of $1.5 million increased $276,000, or 22.6%, in comparison to the same
periods in fiscal 2000. Net sales for the UK sales office for the same period
were $140,000. This amount reflects a decrease of $128,000, or 22.3%, for the
three-month period. Net sales for PhotoMed for the three months ended September
30, 1999 were $525,000.
Total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2000 of $1.7 million,
which include net sales and other income, decreased $356,000, or 17.7%, compared
to the same periods of fiscal 2000. This performance reflects impact of
decreased net sales resulting from the PhotoMed sale.
Cost of products sold for the first quarter of fiscal 2000 was $832,000, or
50.7% of net sales, which compares to $972,000, or 48.2%, of net sales for the
same period of fiscal 2000. This decrease of $140,000, or 14.4%, was primarily
due to the PhotoMed sale offset by the cost increase due to the increased sales
volume against the same period in fiscal 2000. Cost of products sold for
PhotoMed for the first quarter of fiscal 2000 was $364,000.
Selling (including marketing), general and administrative expenses of $627,000,
or 38.27% of net sales, for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 decreased $218,000,
or 25.8%, in comparison to $844,000, or 41.9% of net sales, for the same period
in fiscal 2000. This decrease resulted from $203,000 and $14,000 decreases in
selling and marketing, and general and administrative expenses, respectively.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for PhotoMed were $143,000 for the
first quarter of fiscal 2000.
Research and development expenses of $175,000, or 10.7% of net sales, increased
$19,000, or 12.1%, in comparison to $156,000, or 7.7% of net sales, for the same
period in fiscal 2000. An additional $85,000 of software development expenses,
which represents 5.2% of net sales, was capitalized for the three months ended
September 30, 2000 in comparison to $23,000 for the same period in fiscal 2000.
These expenses are due to the level of project activity for new products.
Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2000 of $58,000, or
3.5% of net sales, compares to $54,000, or 2.7% of net sales, for the same
period in fiscal 2000. This increase of $4,000, or 7.1%, is primarily due to the
slightly higher level of average bank indebtedness in comparison to the prior
fiscal year.

ITEM 2 -- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
---------------------------------
Depreciation and amortization of $118,000 for the three months ended September
30, 2000 compares to $122,000 for the same period in fiscal 2000, a decrease of
$4,000, or 3.4%. This net decrease was primarily due to impact of the PhotoMed
sale, offset by an increase in amortization due to recent increased
capitalization of software development costs. Depreciation and amortization for
PhotoMed for the three months ended September 30, 1999 was $17,000.
Foreign exchange gains were minimal for the three months ended September 30,
2000 in comparison to net gains of $4,000 same period in fiscal 2000, due to a
mix of transactional activity.
The Company reported a net loss of $148,000 for the first quarter in fiscal year
2001, compared to a net loss of $127,000 for the first quarter of the prior
fiscal year. The increases in cost of products sold discussed above was the
major impact on income.
The resulting per share performance (basic) based on the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding for each period was net loss of $(0.12) per share
for the first quarter in comparison to a net loss of $(0.11) per share for the
same period in fiscal 2000.The per share performance on a diluted basis was the
same as the basic per share performance for each fiscal year.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
-------------------------------
The working capital of the Company at March 31, 2000 was $1.4 million compared
to $1.5 million at June 30, 2000, a decrease of $178,000 million, or 11.6%.
Current assets of $2.9 million decreased $16,000, or 0.5%, from June 30, 2000.
This change primarily reflects a decrease of $158,000 in the inventory balance
offset by increases of $43,000 and $95,000 in cash and accounts receivable,
respectively. These changes reflected a decrease of 11.4%, and increases of
37.0% and 8.0% of the respective balances at June 30, 2000. The inventory
balance represented 4.4 months of sales in inventory, which is comparable to the
4.6 months of sales in inventory at June 30, 2000. The trade accounts receivable
balance of $1.3 million represents 2.37 months of sales in comparison to 1.97
months of sales at June 30, 2000.
Current liabilities of $1.5 million increased $162,000, or 12.1%, in comparison
to the balance as of June 30, 2000. This increase was due principally to net
increases in bank indebtedness of $170,000, or 40.9%, of the balance as of June
30, 2000.

ITEM 2 -- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (continued)
-------------------------------------------
As of December 14, 1999 the Company renewed its working capital line of credit
with Silicon Valley Bank of California for $2,000,000. This credit facility has
a one (1) year term (expiring December 13, 2000) and carries an interest rate at
the prime rate plus 1.5% (11.5% at September 30, 2000). Interest is due and
payable monthly, and the principal is due at maturity. The collateral for the
line represents a perfected first security interest in all the assets of the
Company, its wholly owned Canadian subsidiary and United Kingdom branch. The
Company will retain ownership of intellectual property and is restricted on the
pledge of this property to any other party. The advance rate is based on 75%
against eligible domestic and Canadian receivables within ninety (90) days from
invoice date and 90% against insured or letter of credit domestic and foreign
receivables. The Company is not required to pay the outstanding balance in full
at any time during the term of the note. The balance outstanding at September
30, 2000 was $585,220. The securities related to the Covington Capital debenture
and the MLTV note payable are subordinated to the bank debt.
During March 1998, the Company reached an understanding with MLTV that interest
would not accrue on the $630,731 principal amount of debt due by the Company and
that such balance would only become due upon the sale of the company or at such
time as MLTV were to dispose of its interest in the Company. The lender has
agreed not to require any principal repayments prior to June 30, 2001. This note
is subordinated to the bank debt with Silicon Valley Bank and ranks equally in
priority with the Covington Capital Corporation promissory note
On October 31, 1995, the Company completed a $1,100,000 ($1,500,000 Canadian)
financing agreement in the form of subordinated debt with C.I.-C.P.A. Business
Ventures Fund, Inc., a venture capital fund of Covington Capital Corporation.
This subordinated debt has a term of five years and bears interest at 12% per
annum, compounded monthly. The Company granted a security interest in all of the
Company's right, title and interest in all accounts and proceeds. This
collateral is subordinated to the bank debt with Silicon Valley Bank and ranks
equally in priority with the subordinated promissory note payable to MLTV. The
outstanding balance as of September 30, 2000 was $803,845 ($1,206,250 Canadian).
Covington Capital Corporation has agreed not to demand repayment as long as
principal repayments are not made on the MLTV debt facility. The Company's plan
is to continue to adhere to the current debt repayment schedule by remitting to
lender monthly principal payments of $4,165 ($6,250 Canadian), plus interest,
beyond the October 2000 payoff date.

ITEM 2 -- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (continued)
-------------------------------------------
On March 7, 1997, the Company raised its first significant equity financing
since 1987, for $2,000,000, net $1,958,147 (for detail on specific terms, refer
to Note I to the Financial Statements in Form 10-KSB for June 30, 2000). The
importance of this financing is that it allowed the Company to pursue its growth
goals. The Company has used this financing for new product introduction and to
expand it sales and marketing coverage.
If the Company has to repay some of the short term maturing debt, it will lose a
substantial portion of its financial resources to pursue its current plans.
Whereas there is every reason to believe that the Company can refinance its
maturing debt, there is no guarantee that it will be able to do so.
The Company will continue to manage within its financial resources and attempt
to balance its working capital needs with cash flow generated from operations
and available current financing. The Company cannot be certain that it will be
successful in efforts to raise additional funds.
