                    APOGEE TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                            MARCH 31, 2000 AND 1999


1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with the requirements of Regulation SB and with the instructions
to Form 10Q-SB. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals)
necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and
cash flows have been included. The results of operations for the three month and
six month periods ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the
operating results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2000. These
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 1999.

     The balance sheet at December 31, 1999 has been derived from the audited
financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information
and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements.

     The financial statements include the accounts of Apogee Technology, Inc.
("Technology"), and its wholly owned subsidiary, DUBLA, Inc. (collectively the
"Company"). All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been
eliminated.

     The Company is engaged in the development and design of digital amplifier
technology. The Company is presently focused on computer based audio and
entertainment media applications derived from its all-digital amplifier design
trademarked as Direct Digital Amplification (DDX(R)).

     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the
Company will continue as a going concern. However, the Company has negative
working capital, a stockholders' deficiency, recurring losses, and had no
operations other than development or any significant current income, all of
which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company plans to raise capital to commercialize and license its digital
amplifier technology. The continued viability of the Company is dependent upon
its ability to successfully develop and market the aforementioned application
for its digital amplifier technology and raise sufficient funds for such
purposes. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

2. BANK LINE OF CREDIT

     In April 2000, the Company converted its bank line of credit into a
revolving line of credit with maximum borrowings of up to $200,000. The line
matures in January 2001, and calls for interest at prime plus 1%, with an
initial rate of 10%.  The line is secured by the assets of the Company and is
personally guaranteed by a director of the Company.  In May 2000, the Company
repaid the entire outstanding balance on this line.  As of June 30, 2000, the
Company had no borrowings under this line.

a private placement in the amount of $750,000.

4. STOCK OPTIONS

     In April 2000, the Board of Directors, subject to stockholder approval,
authorized an increase in the shares available under the 1997 incentive stock
option plan from 300,000 to 600,000, and awarded options to purchase 58,500
shares to seven employees at $3.38 per share.

options to purchase 25,000 shares of common stock at $3.00 per share.

     In May 2000, the Company awarded a director nonqualified options to
purchase 40,000 shares of common stock at $2.48 per share.

     In June 2000, the Company granted stock options to two employees for the
purchase of 5,000 shares each of common stock at $2.50 and $3.00 per share,
respectively.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations for the Three- and Six- Month Periods Ended June 30, 2000
         and June 30, 1999.

GENERAL

     The following Discussion and Analysis of the Company's Financial Condition
and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the Company's
Financial Statements and the related Notes included elsewhere in this Report.
This discussion contains, in addition to historical statements, express or
implied forward-looking statements. The words "believes," "expects,"
"anticipates," "may," "will," "should," "intends," "forecasts," "projects,"
"plans," "estimates" and similar expressions identify forward-looking
statements. Such statements reflect the current views of the Company with
respect to future events and financial performance or operations and speak only
as of the date the statements are made. Such forward-looking statements involve
risks and uncertainties and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on
forward-looking statements. The Company's actual results may differ materially
from such statements. Factors that cause or contribute to such differences
include, but are not limited to, the Company's limited operating history in its
present business, unpredictability of operating results, loss of market share
and pressure on prices from competition in various aspects of its business, the
risks of rapid growth, the Company's dependence on key personnel, uncertainty of
product acceptance, inability to timely develop and introduce new technologies,
products and applications, changes in the level of activity in the audio
industry, changes in economic conditions and an inability to obtain financing,
as well as those discussed elsewhere in this Form 10-QSB.  Although the Company
believes that the assumptions underlying its forward-looking statements are
reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove inaccurate and, therefore, there
can be no assurance that the results contemplated in such forward-looking
statements will be realized. The inclusion of such forward-looking information
should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person
that the future events, plans or expectations contemplated by the Company will
be achieved. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update, review or
revise any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in the Company's
expectations with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions or
circumstances on which any such statements are based.

OVERVIEW

     Prior to 1995, the Company was in the business of engineering,
manufacturing and marketing high quality, high-end patented ribbon loudspeaker
systems for use in home audio and video entertainment systems. The Company
discontinued this loudspeaker business in 1994.  Since 1995, the Company's
business has shifted to the design and marketing of digital amplifier
technology, DDX(R). The Company has completed development of its first DDX
software, semiconductor and amplifier products and has entered into one
licensing agreement but has not yet begun to generate revenues from the sale of
its DDX products. The Company has incurred net losses of approximately
$1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 1999 and just under $1 million for
each of the years ended December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997. At December 31,
1999, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $7,294,899, of which
approximately $4 million was attributable to the Company's now defunct
loudspeaker business. These net losses and accumulated deficit (since 1995)
result primarily from the costs associated with the Company's DDX development
efforts. DDX development costs during 1996 and 1997 were used to develop the
conceptual design and to market the solution to potential customers. With the
design concept validated, efforts during 1998 and 1999 were devoted to
converting the concept into semiconductor solutions. This activity was performed
using internal and external engineering resources. Additional development costs
were incurred during 1999 to fabricate engineering device samples.

RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS OF THE COMPANY

     Revenues.  The Company did not generate any revenues for the three- and
six-month periods ended June 30, 2000 and June 30, 1999.

     Research and Development Expenses.  Research and development expenses
decreased approximately 11% to $150,886 in the quarter ended June 30, 2000
compared with $170,230 for the same period in 1999. Research and development
expenses would have increased 15% in this period compared to the same period in
1999 but for a one-time period charge of $38,500 for consulting expenses
incurred in connection with the advancement of certain product development
efforts during the second quarter of 1999. For the six-month period ended June
30, 2000, research and development expenses increased 6% to $277,474 compared
with $261,982 for the same period in 1999. These increases over the three- and
six-month periods resulted primarily from greater personnel expenses, including
the hiring in the quarter ended June 30, 2000 of a vice president of engineering
and planning, as the Company continued to expand its new product design and
development capabilities and completed the development of its first DDX
products. The Company is strongly committed to accelerating its research and
development and new product development efforts and expects expenses in this
area to continue to grow significantly.

     Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.  SG&A expenses increased
approximately 104% to $147,616 in the quarter ended June 30, 2000 compared with
$72,516 for the same period in 1999.  For the six-month period ended June 30,
2000, SG&A expenses increased 140% to $324,077 compared with $135,081 for the
same period in 1999.  These increases reflect the Company's increased efforts to
market its first DDX products.  In the quarter ended June 30, 2000, the Company
hired a new chief operating officer as well as a vice president of engineering
and planning and, for the first time during the past three years, Apogee began
to incur executive compensation expenses. The Company also incurred additional
expenses in the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000 as it hired
marketing consultants to help promote its first DDX products. The higher
percentage increase in the six-month period rather than the three-month period
ended June 30, 2000 is a reflection of one-time, first quarter 2000, higher
legal expenses incurred in connection with the Company's re-registration under
the Exchange Act of 1934 and higher accounting fees incurred in connection with
the auditing of the company's financials for the three years ended December 31,
1999 required for the Exchange Act registration.

     Net Loss.  The Company's net loss for the six-month period ended June 30,
2000 totaled $618,332, or $0.14 per basic and diluted common share, compared to
a loss of $411,813, or $0.13 per basic and diluted common share, for the six-
month period ended June 30, 1999. This increase was a result, primarily, of
increased research and development costs as well as higher marketing and sales
and general and administrative expenses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     At June 30, 2000, the Company had approximately $12,035 in cash compared to
$2,629 at December 31, 1999.  The Company has a revolving line of credit with
one bank in the amount of $200,000, which, as of June 30, 2000 was at a zero
balance.  During the six month period ended June 30, 2000, the Company raised
$750,000 in a private placement of its common stock at $3.00 a share, $291,000
of which was contributed by the Company's directors. The Company is currently
engaged in a new private placement of its Common Stock to raise an additional
$1 million for working capital purposes. The continuance of the Company is
dependent upon its ability to successfully develop and market its DDX digital
amplifier technology and raise additional funds for such purposes. There can be
no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to raise the funds that it
needs to continue its operations in the long term or that additional funds will
be available to the Company on acceptable terms, if at all.
