                            ONSITE ENERGY CORPORATION

              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1:   As  contemplated  by  the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission under
          Item 310 of Regulation S-B, the accompanying  financial statements and
          footnotes  have been  condensed  and do not  contain  all  disclosures
          required by generally accepted  accounting  principles and, therefore,
          should be read in  conjunction  with the Form 10-KSB for Onsite Energy
          Corporation dba ONSITE SYCOM Energy  Corporation (the "Company") as of
          and for the year ended June 30, 1999 and all other subsequent filings.
          In the opinion of management,  the  accompanying  unaudited  financial
          statements  contain all  adjustments  (consisting of normal  recurring
          adjustments)  necessary to present  fairly its financial  position and
          results of its operations for the interim period.

NOTE 2:   The  consolidated  balance  sheet as of  September  30, 1999,  and the
          consolidated  statements  of  operations  and cash flows for the three
          months ended  September  30, 1999 and 1998,  represent  the  financial
          position and results of operations of the Company.

NOTE 3:   Financial  Statement  Restatement.  The  Company  had  previously been
          corresponding with the SEC regarding the Company's Form 10-KSB for the
          year ended June 30, 1998. In response to information  submitted by the
          Company,  on December 3, 1999, the SEC sent a comment letter directing
          the Company to restate its financial  statements  for each of the last
          three fiscal years ended June 30, 1999,  1998, and 1997 as well as for
          the quarter ended September 30, 1999. The restatement is the result of
          a review of the  Company's  accounting  policies  as it related to the
          timing of the recognition of revenues and expenses.

          The  SEC  took  exception  to  certain   applications   of  accounting
          principles  as  applied  by the  Company in the areas of the timing of
          revenue recognition where utility incentive payments are a part of the
          Company's  revenue  stream,  the  timing of revenue  recognition  with
          respect to the sale of future utility revenue  payments and the timing
          of revenue and expense  recognition  relative to contracts  containing
          future commitments of services following the implementation of certain
          projects.  As a result,  the Company  restated  its  previously  filed
          financial  statements  for each of the fiscal  years  ending  June 30,
          1997,  1998 and 1999,  as well as the first (a second  amendment)  and
          second fiscal quarters ended September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1999.

          The  Company  implemented  several  projects  in fiscal 1998 where the
          price to the customer was less than the cost to implement the project,
          creating a loss for accounting purposes. This "loss" was recovered and
          profits  were  achieved  through  the  Company's  retaining a share of

<PAGE>6

          utility incentive  payments that resulted from energy savings from the
          implemented  project.  In these instances,  the Company  estimated its
          revenue  from these  utility  incentive  payments and  recognized  the
          revenue as the project was being  implemented  using the percentage of
          completion  methodology.  The SEC has  required  the  Company to defer
          recognition  of the utility  incentive  payment  component  of revenue
          until the point in time that the  utility is billed for the  incentive
          payments.  Generally, these billings occur on a quarterly basis over a
          three year period.

          Further,  the Company  sold other  future  utility  incentive  payment
          streams to a third party on a non-recourse  basis.  At the time of the
          sale, in fiscal 1997 and 1998, the Company  recognized  revenue to the
          extent it received  cash.  The SEC has  required the Company to record
          these  payments as a  financing  transaction  (debt) and to  recognize
          revenue  related to the  utility  incentive  payments  on an as billed
          basis, again quarterly over a three year period.

          In addition,  the Company has a small number of contracts for which it
          has a  commitment  to provide  relamping  and other  ongoing  services
          several  years after the initial  implementation  of the project.  The
          Company  originally  recognized all the revenue and an estimate of the
          future cost as the project was being implemented. The SEC has required
          the  Company  to defer a portion  of the  revenue  and  eliminate  the
          reserve for future cost until the relampings actually occur.

          The  following   table   presents  the  statements  of  operations  as
          originally  filed and as amended  for the three  month  periods  ended
          September 30, 1999:

Item 2.   Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial  Condition  and
          Results of Operations.

Background

Cautionary Statement for Purposes of the "Safe Harbor" Provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. With the exception of historical facts

<PAGE>7


stated  herein,  the matters  discussed  in this  quarterly  report are "forward
looking" statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual
results to differ  materially  from  projected  results.  The "forward  looking"
statements  contained  herein  are  cross-referenced  to  this  paragraph.  Such
"forward  looking"  statements  include,  but are not  necessarily  limited  to,
statements  regarding  anticipated  levels of future  revenue and earnings  from
operations of the Company, projected costs and expenses related to the Company's
energy  services  agreements,  and the  availability  of future  debt and equity
capital on  commercially  reasonable  terms.  Factors  that could  cause  actual
results  to  differ  materially  include,  in  addition  to  the  other  factors
identified  in this  report,  the cyclical  and  volatile  price of energy,  the
inability to continue to contract  sufficient  customers to replace contracts as
they become completed,  unanticipated  delays in the approval of proposed energy
efficiency  measures by the  Company's  customers,  delays in the receipt of, or
failure to receive  necessary  governmental or utility permits or approvals,  or
the renewals thereof,  risks and uncertainties  relating to general economic and
political conditions, both domestically and internationally,  changes in the law
and regulations governing the Company's activities as an energy services company
and the  activities  of the nation's  regulators  and public  utilities  seeking
energy  efficiency as a cost  effective  alternative to  constructing  new power
generation  facilities,  results of project specific and company working capital
and financing efforts and market conditions,  and other risk factors detailed in
the Company's  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  filings  including the risk
factors  set forth in the  Company's  Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended June
30, 1999 (as the same has been  amended).  Readers of this report are  cautioned
not to put undue reliance on "forward  looking"  statements  which are, by their
nature,  uncertain as reliable  indicators  of future  performance.  The Company
disclaims any intent or obligation to publicly  update these  "forward  looking"
statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

The Company is an energy services company ("ESCO") that assists energy customers
in lowering their energy costs by developing,  engineering,  installing,  owning
and  operating  efficient,  environmentally  sound energy  efficiency  and power
supply  projects,  and  advising  customers  on  the  purchasing  of  energy  in
deregulating  energy  markets.  The Company  offers its services to  industrial,
commercial,  institutional and residential customers.  By combining development,
engineering,  analysis, and project and financial management skills, the Company
provides a complete  package of services,  ranging from  feasibility  assessment
through  construction and operation for projects  incorporating energy efficient
lighting, energy management systems,  heating,  ventilation and air conditioning
("HVAC")  upgrades,  cogeneration  and  other  energy  efficiency  measures.  In
addition,  the Company offers bill auditing,  tariff analysis,  transmission and
distribution  analysis and upgrade and  aggregation  services.  The Company also
provides  professional  consulting  services  in  the  areas  of  direct  access
planning,  market assessment,  business strategies,  public policy analysis, and
environmental impact feasibility studies. The Company has been accredited by the
National Association of Energy Service Companies ("NAESCO"). It is the Company's
mission to save its customers  money and improve the quality of the  environment
through independent energy solutions.

As of June 30, 1999, the Company's  auditors issued a qualified  opinion subject
to the  Company's  ability to continue  as a going  concern.  The going  concern
issues are the result of continued  operating  losses,  negative working capital
and a negative  shareholders'  equity. See the "Liquidity and Capital Resources"
discussion  below for  details  of the  Company's  plan for  dealing  with these
issues.

In October 1997, the Company acquired Westar Business Services,  Inc., which was
renamed  Onsite  Business  Services,  Inc.,  and recently  renamed Onsite Energy
Services,  Inc.  ("OES").  OES provides  utility  services and industrial  water
services primarily in the states of Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma.

<PAGE>8

In February  1998,  OES acquired the  operating  assets of  Mid-States  Armature
Works, Inc. through a newly-formed subsidiary,  Onsite/Mid-States, Inc. ("OMS").
OMS  provides  specialized  medium  and  high  voltage  electrical  fabrication,
installation, maintenance and repair services to municipal utility customers and
others,  primarily  in the  states of  Kansas,  Nebraska,  Missouri,  Iowa,  and
Oklahoma.

In April 1998,  the Company  formed Onsite Energy de Panama,  S.A., a Panamanian
corporation, to facilitate the development and acquisition of potential projects
in Panama and Latin America.

In June 1998, the Company acquired Lighting Technology  Services,  Inc. ("LTS").
LTS  provides  energy  efficiency  projects  through  retrofits  of lighting and
controls either  independently  or as a  subcontractor  to other energy services
companies  primarily in Southern  California.  Effective September 30, 1999, the
Company sold 95% of its interest in LTS.

On June 30, 1998,  the Company  acquired the assets and certain  liabilities  of
SYCOM  Enterprises,   LLC,  through  a  newly-formed  subsidiary,  SYCOM  ONSITE
Corporation  ("SO  Corporation").  SO Corporation is also an ESCO with customers
primarily on the East Coast of the United States.

Effective April 1, 1999, the Company formed REEP Onsite,  Inc. ("REEP") and ERSI
Onsite,  Inc.  ("ERSI")  for the purpose of acquiring  substantially  all of the
assets of REEP,  Inc.  for  assumption  of certain  liabilities.  REEP  provides
residential energy services while ERSI is a commercial lighting  contractor.  In
the fiscal  first  quarter,  the Company  made a decision to explore the sale or
disposition of its lighting subsidiaries.

Unless the context indicates  otherwise,  reference to the Company shall include
all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries.

Results of Operations.

Revenues for the  three-month  period ended  September 30, 1999 were  $9,740,081
compared to $9,454,427 for the same period in 1998, an increase of $285,654,  or
3.02  percent.  The increase in revenue was due  primarily  to the  existence of
several major contracts (in excess of $1,000,000) in the current fiscal quarter,
whereas the prior year only benefited from one major contract.

Cost of sales for the quarter ended  September 30, 1999 was $7,443,959  compared
to $7,902,823  for the quarter ended  September 30, 1998, a decrease of $458,864
or 5.81 percent.

Gross margin for the three month period ended  September 30, 1999 was $2,296,122
(23.57 percent of revenues), compared to $1,551,604 (16.41 percent of revenues).
The increase in gross margin as a percentage  of sales was the result of several
contracts in the quarter  ended  September  30, 1998 with lower than  historical
margins as well as lower than typical margins at LTS.

Selling,  general and  administrative  ("SG&A")  expense  for the quarter  ended
September 30, 1999 was  $2,979,350  compared to $2,691,458 for the quarter ended
September 30, 1998, an increase of $287,892,  or 10.70 percent. The increase was
substantially  due to an overall  increase in salaries  and  benefits due to the
addition  of two  lighting  subsidiaries  and  expansion  at LTS, an increase in
general liability  insurance resulting from expansion and increased revenues and
an  increase  of overall  facilities  expenses  for the  Company due also to the
addition and expansion of the lighting subsidiaries.

Goodwill  amortization and depreciation  expense for the quarter ended September
30, 1999 was $143,625,  compared to $290,622 for the  comparable  quarter in the

<PAGE>9

previous year, a decrease of $146,997,  or 50.58 percent. The primary reason for
the  decrease  was due to the  elimination  of  amortization  of goodwill for SO
Corporation resulting from the write off of the remaining goodwill at the fiscal
year ended June 30, 1999.

Recovery of reserve  provided for sale or disposal of subsidiary was a reduction
in operating loss (income) of $358,670 for the three months ended  September 30,
1999 and is a non recurring item relating specifically to the sale of 95% of the
Company's  interest in LTS. The Company had decided on exploring options for the
sale of LTS,  and at that  time  established  a  reserve  for  possible  loss of
$1,010,000  based upon estimates  derived from the facts that existed prior to a
definitive  agreement  for  sale.  The  ultimate  sale  resulted  in a  loss  of
approximately $651,000.

Net other  expense  for the  quarter  ended  September  30,  1999 was  $113,211,
compared to $72,142 for the three month period  ended  September  30,  1998,  an
increase of $41,069.  The primary reason for the change is the $32,301  decrease
in interest income.

Net loss for the three months ended  September 30, 1999 was  $584,994,  or $0.07
loss per share, compared to net loss of $1,502,618,  or $0.08 loss per share for
the same period in 1998.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's cash and cash  equivalents were $585,325 as of September 30, 1999,
compared to  $900,408  as of June 30,  1999,  a decrease  of  $315,083.  Working
capital  was a negative  $6,079,050  as of  September  30,  1999,  compared to a
negative $6,511,390 as of June 30, 1999.

Cash flows  provided by operating  activities  were $211,741 for the three month
period  ended  September  30,  1999  compared  to cash flows  used in  operating
activities of $1,267,097 for the same three month period in 1998. The change was
primarily  due to the decline in net loss from  $1,502,618  for the three months
ended  September  30, 1998 to $584,994 for the three months ended  September 30,
1999.

Cash flows used in investing  activities  in the first three months of 1999 were
$263,610,  compared to $845,279 in the first  fiscal  quarter in the prior year.
The decrease was attributable to a reduction in loans and advances to affiliates
of the Company.

Cash flows used in financing activities were $263,214 for the three months ended
September 30, 1999,  compared to cash flows provided by financing  activities of
$1,167,352 for the three month period ended  September 30, 1998.  Although there
were  proceeds  from the issuance of stock in the amount of  $1,000,000  in both
fiscal  quarters,  the  principal  reason for the decrease in the quarter  ended
September 30, 1999 was the repayment of notes payable for $1,132,756.

The Company has shown significant net losses for the year ended June 30, 1999 as
well as the three months ended September 30, 1999.  Management believes that the
Company will be able to generate additional revenues and operating  efficiencies
through  its  acquisitions  as well as by  other  means  to  achieve  profitable
operations.  During the quarter ended September 30, 1999, the Company took steps
to mitigate the losses and enhance its future viability.  Subsequent to its most
recent  fiscal year end, the Company  privately  placed  shares of newly created
Series E Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series E Stock") to existing shareholders
for  $1,000,000.  Concurrent  with this  private  placement,  members  of senior
management  of the Company  agreed to receive  shares of the  Company's  Class A
Common  Stock in lieu of a portion of their  salary in an effort to reduce  cash
outflows related to compensation.  During the first quarter, a decision was made

<PAGE>10

to explore the sale or disposition of the Company's lighting subsidiaries, which
could provide  capital,  reduce  operating  losses and will allow  management to
better focus on its core ESCO business  activities.  Subsequent to September 30,
1999,  the Company sold 95% of its interest in LTS. In addition,  the Company is
exploring   strategic   relationships  with  companies  that  could  involve  an
investment  in the Company.  The Company may also raise cash through the sale of
long term future  revenue  streams that it currently  owns or has rights to. The
Company is also  examining ways to further reduce  overhead  including,  but not
limited to, the possibility of targeted staff reductions.  Further, the Company,
through the acquisition of other energy service  companies,  expects to continue
to gain economies of scale through the use of a consolidated management team and
the  synergies  of  marketing  efforts  of the  different  entities.  Management
believes  that all of the above  actions will allow the Company to continue as a
going concern.  Future cash requirements depend on the Company's  profitability,
its  ability  to manage  working  capital  requirements  and its rate of growth.
Additional  financing  through  the sale of  securities  may  have an  ownership
dilution effect on existing shareholders.

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.  Any of the
Company's or its  suppliers'  and  customers'  computer  programs that have date
sensitive  software may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than
the year 2000. This could result in system failures or  miscalculations  causing
disruptions of operations  including,  among other things, a temporary inability
to process  transactions,  send invoices,  or engage in similar normal  business
activities.  The Company believes that  substantially all software  applications
currently being used for the financial and  operational  systems have adequately
addressed  any year 2000  issues.  All hardware  systems have been  assessed and
plans have been  developed to address  systems  modification  requirements.  The
costs  incurred  to date  related  to its  Year  2000  activities  have not been
material to the Company, and based upon current estimates,  the Company does not
believe  that the total  cost of its Year 2000  readiness  programs  will have a
material  adverse  impact on the  Company's  results of  operations or financial
position.  Any risks the  Company  faces are  expected to be external to ongoing
operations.  The Company has numerous alternative vendors for critical supplies,
materials  and  components.  Current  vendors  and  subcontractors  who have not
adequately  prepared for the year 2000 can be substituted in favor of those that
have prepared.

Part II - Other Information

Item 1. Legal  Proceedings.  In October 1998, Energy  Conservation  Consultants,
Inc. ("ECCI"), a Louisiana-based  company,  filed a suit (United States District
Court,  Eastern  District of Louisiana,  Case No. 98-2914)  against OES alleging
breach of contract in connection  with one of the Company's  projects.  The suit
seeks  reimbursement for expenses  allegedly incurred by ECCI in the preparation
of an audit and lost profits.  Discovery is ongoing and management is continuing
its attempts to settle the matter,  including  through  mediation;  however,  no
agreement has been reached.  A continuance has been granted and trial now is set
for February 2000.

Additionally,  in June 1999, a former  officer of the Company (July 1998 through
October 1998) filed a suit (Superior Court of the State of California, County of
San Diego, North County Branch, Case No. N081711) alleging fraud, negligence and
wrongful  discharge in connection  with his  employment  termination  in October
1998. The action seeks  compensatory  damages and punitive  damages in excess of
$25,000.  Mediation engaged in by the parties in an effort to settle this matter
was  unsuccessful.  Hence,  discovery  is ongoing,  and the  Company  intends to
vigorously defend itself in this matter.

with one of the Company's projects.  The suit seeks payment of monies ($434,234)
