SATCON TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

Note A.  Basis of Presentation
- ------------------------------

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of SatCon Technology Corporation and its majority-owned subsidiaries
(collectively, the "Company") as of June 30, 1998 and have been prepared by the
Company in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial reporting and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated. These consolidated financial statements, which in the opinion of
management reflect all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments)
necessary for a fair presentation, should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Report on Form
10-K for the year ended September 30, 1997. Operating results for the three and
nine month periods ended June 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for any future interim period or for the entire
fiscal year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Note B. Significant Events
- --------------------------

BEACON POWER CORPORATION

During a recapitalization of Beacon Power Corporation ("Beacon"), an affiliate
of the Company, on December 24, 1997, the Company converted a significant
portion of its ownership of Beacon to preferred stock. The Company now holds
less than 20% of the common stock of Beacon. The Company's investment in Beacon
is accounted for on a cost basis. The impact on the consolidated financial
statements is as follows:

Note C. Income per Share
- ------------------------

As of October 1, 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard No. 128 ("SFAS No. 128"), "Earnings per Share". SFAS No. 128 replaced
APB Opinion No. 15, "Earnings per Share". The previously reported primary and
fully diluted earnings per share have been replaced with basic and diluted
earnings per share. Unlike primary earnings per share, basic earnings per share
excludes any dilutive effects of options and warrants. Earnings per share
amounts for all periods presented conform to SFAS No. 128 requirements. There
was no effect on the earnings per share disclosures for prior periods presented
as a result of adoption of SFAS No. 128 due to the antidilutive effect of the
Company's outstanding options and warrants. As of June 30, 1998, there were
879,827 and 63,848 stock options and warrants, respectively, outstanding. The
following is the reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic
and diluted per share computations of net income/(loss):

Three Months Ended June 30, 1998 ("Q3 1998") Compared to the Three Months Ended
- -------------------------------- ----------- ----------------------------------
June 30, 1997 ("Q3 1997")
- ------------- -----------

Revenue. The Company's revenue increased approximately $557,000 or 18.0% from Q3
1997 to Q3 1998. Approximately $405,000 of the increase in revenue is due to
increased effort on various research and development contracts and $294,000 is
attributed to the acquisition of Film Microelectronics, Inc. ("FMI"), which
closed on April 16, 1997. The increase in revenue was partially offset by
decreased revenue of approximately $142,000 related to the sale of manufactured
products at K&D Magmotor Corporation ("K&D").

Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue decreased approximately $147,000 or 7.9%, from
Q3 1997 to Q3 1998. The decrease is primarily due to a reduction of cost of
revenue of approximately $125,000 and $109,000 associated with K&D and FMI,
respectively. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in effort on
research and development contracts.

Nine Months Ended June 30, 1998 ("Q3 1998 YTD") Compared to the Nine Months
- ------------------------------- --------------- ---------------------------
Ended June 30, 1997 ("Q3 1997 YTD")
- ------------------- ---------------

Revenue.  The Company's revenue increased approximately $3,536,000 or 43.5%,
from Q3 1997 YTD to Q3 1998 YTD.  The increase in revenue is primarily due to
the two acquisitions closed in 1997, K&D and FMI.  These two acquisitions
represent incremental revenue of approximately $3,433,000.  The increase in
revenue is also due to an increase of approximately $52,000 related
to work on various research and development contracts and an increase of 

                                       7
<PAGE>
 
approximately $51,000 related to the sale of manufactured products at K&D.

Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue increased approximately $2,353,000 or 60.2%,
from Q3 1997 YTD to Q3 1998 YTD. The increase is primarily due to the addition
of cost of revenue of approximately $372,000 and $1,808,000 associated with K&D
and FMI, respectively.

Research and Development.  Research and development expenses increased
approximately $423,000 or 381.7%.  This increase is primarily due to the
development of the flywheel energy storage system incurred by Beacon Power
Corporation ("Beacon") for the three months ended December 31, 1997.  During the
recapitalization of Beacon on December 24, 1997, the Company converted a
significant portion of its ownership of Beacon to preferred stock.  The Company
now holds less than 20% of Beacon's common stock; therefore, effective December
24, 1997, the Company's investment in Beacon is accounted for on a cost basis.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's cash and cash equivalents was approximately $1,856,000 as of June
30, 1998, a decrease of  approximately $2,400,000 from September 30, 1997.  Cash
used in operating activities was approximately $1,471,000 for Q3 1998 YTD,
compared to approximately $2,154,000 for Q3 1997 YTD.  The cash used in
operating activities is primarily the result of a net loss and an increase in
inventory related to the introduction of a new line of standard regulators.

The Company anticipates that its existing cash resources and cash flow from
operations will be sufficient to fund its operations through June 30, 1999, as
well as its ability to repurchase up to 5 percent of the Company's outstanding
shares over the next 24 months under a stock repurchase program (the "Program").
Under the Program, the Company plans to purchase shares on the open market from
time-to-time, depending on market conditions. The Company's ability to generate
cash from operations depends upon, among other things, revenue growth, its
credit and payment terms with vendors, and collection of accounts receivable. If
such sources of cash prove insufficient, the Company will be required to seek
addition debt or equity financing. There can be no assurance that cash generated
from operations will be sufficient to meet its operating requirements, or if
required, that additional debt or equity financing will be available on terms
acceptable to the Company.

FACTORS AFFECTING FUTURE RESULTS

The Company's future results remain difficult to predict and may be affected by
a number of factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from
forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q and presented elsewhere
by management from time to time.  These factors include business conditions
within the automotive, telecommunications, industrial machinery, and
semiconductor industries and the world economies as a whole, and competitive
pressures that may impact research and development spending.  The Company's
revenue growth is dependent on technology developments and contract research and
development for both the government and commercial sectors and no assurance can
be given that such investments will continue or that the Company can
successfully obtain such funds.  In addition, the Company's future growth
opportunities are dependent on the introduction of new products that must
penetrate automotive, telecommunications, industrial, and computer market
segments.  No assurance can be given that new products can be developed, or if
developed, will be successful; that competitors will not force prices to an


                                       8
<PAGE>
 
unacceptably low level or take market share from the Company; or that the
Company can achieve or maintain profits in these markets. Because of these and
other factors, past financial performances should not be considered an indicator
of future performance. Investors should not use historical trends to anticipate
future results and should be aware that the Company's stock price frequently
experiences significant volatility.

EFFECT OF RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standard  No. 131 ("SFAS No. 131"), "Disclosure about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information".  The statement is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997 and establishes annual and
interim reporting standards for an enterprise's operating segments and related
disclosures about its products and services, geographical areas and major
customers.

In June 1998, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 133
("SFAS No. 133"), "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities".  This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after June
15, 1999 and establishes a new model for accounting for derivatives and hedging
activities.

Adoption of SFAS No. 131 and SFAS No. 133 are not expected to have a material
impact to the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations
or cash flows and any effect will be limited to the form and content of its
disclosures.

EFFECTS OF INFLATION

The Company believes that inflation over the past three years has not had a
significant impact on the Company's sales or operating results.

EFFECTS OF 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. Certain computer programs
that have date sensitive software and use two digits only may recognize a date 
using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000.

Neither the cost of addressing Year 2000 compliance nor the consequence of
incomplete or untimely resolution of problems related to the Year 2000 represent
a known material event or uncertainty that would affect future financial
results, or cause reported financial information not to be necessarily
indicative of future operating results or future financial condition.
