AMERICAN TECHNOLOGIES GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information and with the instructions to Rule
10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and notes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended
January 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may
be expected for the year ended July 31, 2000. For further information,
please refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year
ended July 31, 1999.
2. ORGANIZATION, LINE OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT BUSINESS RISKS
a. ORGANIZATION AND LINE OF BUSINESS
American Technologies Group, Inc. (the "Company" or "ATG"), a Nevada
corporation, is engaged in the development, commercialization and sale
of products and systems using its patented and proprietary
technologies. The resulting products are intended to offer
cost-effective solutions to reduce, and in some cases eliminate,
hazardous chemical by-products or emissions resulting from industrial
and combustion processes.
b. SIGNIFICANT BUSINESS RISKS
Since its inception, the Company has incurred significant operating
losses. The ability of the Company to operate as a going concern is
dependent upon its ability to (1) obtain sufficient additional capital
and (2) generate significant revenues through its existing assets and
operating business. The Company plans to raise additional working
capital through private offerings of debt and equity. The successful
outcome of future activities cannot be determined at this time and
there are no assurances that if achieved, the Company will have
sufficient funds to execute its business plans or generate positive
operating results. These issues, among others, raise substantial doubt
about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the
amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the
Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
c. NET LOSS PER SHARE
Net loss per common share is based upon the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the fiscal year under the provisions
of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("FAS") No. 128,
"EARNINGS PER SHARE." Common share equivalents were not considered as
they would be anti-dilutive and had no impact on earnings per share for
any periods presented. However, the impact under the treasury method of
dilutive stock options would have been incremental shares of 270,000
and 32,746 for the six months ended January 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.
Page 7
<PAGE>
d. Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the January 31, 1999 consolidated financial
statements have been reclassified to conform to current year
presentation.
3. DEBENTURES
In September 1999, the Company issued a $500,000 secured convertible
debenture bearing interest at prime rate plus 0.5% per year, (8.75% as
of the date of issuance), maturing December 31, 2003. The conversion
price is fixed at $0.25 per share and the conversion feature vests
January 1, 2000. As part of the agreement, the Company may at its
discretion redeem the debentures at 135% of the principal amount owed
plus accrued interest. This convertible debenture plus another
debenture in the principal amount of $1,000,000 issued in July 1999 is
secured by the catalyst technology of the Company. The debenture
agreement for these debentures also contains anti-dilution provisions
and certain non-financial covenants. In connection with the discount
conversion feature, the Company has recorded imputed interest of
$662,000 included in interest expense in the accompanying Statements of
Operations.
In January 2000, the Company issued $250,000 of 7% convertible
debentures, maturing January 14, 2003. Accrued interest on these
convertible debentures is due on the earlier of conversion or maturity.
The conversion price is equal to the lower of $0.23 or 72.5% of the
average of the lowest three trading prices during the ten trading day
period prior to conversion. Included with these convertible debentures
were 500,000 detachable stock warrants to acquire common stock at an
exercise price of the lower of $0.174 or 72.5% of the average of the
lowest three trading prices during the ten trading days immediately
prior to exercise of the warrants. The conversion feature and the
warrants vest immediately. In connection with the discount conversion
feature and the fair value of the warrants per FAS 123, the Company has
recorded imputed interest of $197,828 included in interest expense in
the accompanying Statements of Operations.
For the six months ended January 31, 2000, certain debenture holders
converted $1,050,000 of the 6% convertible debentures into 5,812,009
shares of common stock of the Company, 692,042 of which were issued in
February 2000. The conversion price was based on the average of the
market price for the five days prior to the conversion, discounted 25%,
as provided in the debenture agreements.
In January 2000, debenture holders with 3% convertible debenture
converted $150,000 into 300,000 shares of common stock of the Company.
The conversion price was fixed at $0.50 as provided in the debenture
agreements.
4. TECHNOLOGY RIGHTS
In fiscal year 1998, in exchange for 500,000 shares of common stock
valued at $1,200,000, the Company acquired all remaining interests and
royalty rights of Robert W. Carroll and BWN Oil Investments
Corporation, a Nevada corporation, to the Clean Air Pac which is used
by the Company in The Force(R) airborne fuel treatment. The technology
rights are amortized based on the straight-line basis over a period of
three years. The Consolidated Statements of Operations include
amortization of technology rights of $100,000 and $200,000 for the
three and six month periods ended January 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Management continued its efforts to refocus the Company's activities on its core
technologies, along with new product development and commercialization.
Management anticipates these efforts will result in significant revenue
commencing in the third or fourth quarters of fiscal 2000, although there can be
no assurance to this effect.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JANUARY 31, 2000 AND 1999
Total operating revenue decreased by $42,000 from $119,800 to $77,800 for the
three months ended January 31, 1999 and January 31, 2000, respectively, due to a
decrease in lease income of $50,000 from Royal Gold, which terminated the

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Since its inception, the Company has incurred significant operating losses. The
ability of the Company to operate as a going concern is dependent upon its
ability to (1) obtain sufficient additional capital and (2) generate significant
revenues through its existing assets and operating business. The Company plans
to raise additional working capital through private offerings of debt and
equity. The successful outcome of future activities cannot be determined at this
time and there are no assurances that if achieved, the Company will have
sufficient funds to execute its business plans or generate positive operating
results. These issues, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability
of the Company to continue as a going concern.
Total assets decreased by $819,900 from $4,801,500 to $3,981,600 at July 31,
1999 and January 31, 2000, respectively. This decrease was the principal result
of a decrease in cash of $650,300 and an increase in accumulated depreciation
and amortization of $276,900, offset by an increase in inventory of $32,600 and
other current assets of $32,400.
Total liabilities decreased by $265,400 from $6,402,700 to $6,137,300 at July
31, 1999 and January 31, 2000, respectively. This decrease was principally due
to the conversion of convertible debentures of $1,200,000, offset by issuance of
$750,000 convertible debentures and an increase in current liabilities of
$184,600.
The Company decreased the cash used in operations by $20,800 from $1,358,700 to
$1,337,900 for the six months ended January 31, 1999 and January 31, 2000,
respectively. The principal source of working capital during the six months
ended January 31, 2000 was the issuance of $750,000 of principal amount of
secured convertible debentures. During the comparable period in 1999, the
principal source of working capital was the issuance of $1,300,000 of principal
amount of convertible debentures, deposit of $200,000 on the sale of ATG Media,
Inc. and loans from related parties of $142,500.
