H.E.R.C. PRODUCTS INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with
the requirements of Form 10-QSB and consequently do not include all of the
disclosures normally made in an annual Form 10-KSB filing. Accordingly, the
consolidated financial statements of H.E.R.C. Products Incorporated ("HERC")
included herein should be reviewed in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and the accompanying footnotes included within HERC's Form
10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1999.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
HERC's customary accounting practices and have not been audited. In the opinion
of management, the consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments
necessary to fairly report HERC's financial position and results of operations
for the interim period. All such adjustments are normal and recurring in nature.
The interim consolidated results of operations are not necessarily indicative of
results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2000.
NOTE 2 - REVENUE RECOGNITION
HERC recognizes revenue when products are shipped. HERC also performs
pipe-cleaning services, which are recorded when the work is complete. Included
in sales are certain reimbursable costs from HERC's customers.
NOTE 3 - LONG TERM DEBT AND OTHER FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS
HERC has a factoring facility whereby the factor purchases eligible receivables
and advances 80% of the purchased amount to HERC. Purchased receivables may not
exceed $600,000 at any one time. Either party may cancel the arrangement with 30
days notice. At September 30, 2000, there were no factored receivables. This
arrangement is accounted for as a sale of receivables on which the factor has
recourse to the 20% residual of aggregate receivables purchased and outstanding.
Interest payable by HERC to the factor is calculated as a fixed discount fee
equal to 1% of the amount of the receivable factored plus a variable discount
fee computed on the amount advanced to HERC and accruing on the basis of actual
days elapsed from the date of the 80% advance until 5 days after collection of
such account receivable by the factor at a per annum rate equal to an internal
rate set by the factor.

NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
LITIGATION
On or about January 14, 1999 in the Supreme Court of the State of New York,
County of Suffolk, the Suffolk County Water Authority and R & L Well Drilling,
LLC filed as a third-party plaintiff a civil claim against HERC in an action
filed on April 8, 1998 by five individual residents of Ronkonkoma, New York,
alleging negligence resulting in personal injury and seeking monetary damages of
$11 million. HERC, acting through its insurance carrier pursuant to the
submitted claim under its comprehensive general liability policy, has
substantially denied liability for the original claim. The insurance carrier
advises that the five claims involved in the action have been tentatively
settled, pending judicial approval, for a total of $30,000. The HERC liability
insurance carrier will pay one half of the settlement amount while the liability
insurance carrier for the Suffolk County Water Authority and R & L Well Drilling
will pay the other half.

NOTE 7 - RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No.
133 (as amended by SFAS No. 138), "ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND
HEDGING ACTIVITIES," which requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as
either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure
those instruments at fair value. The issuance of SFAS No. 137, ACCOUNTING FOR
DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES - DEFERRAL OF THE EFFECTIVE DATE
OF FASB STATEMENT NO. 133," delayed the required effective date of SFAS No. 133
to all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company will be required
to adopt SFAS No. 133, as amended, on January 1, 2001. Management does not
believe that the adoption of SFAS No. 133, as amended, will have a material
impact on its results of operations or financial position.
On December 3, 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission staff (the Staff)
issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements." Subsequent to its issuance, the Staff elected to defer the required
implementation date. The Company will be required to adopt SAB 101 during the
fourth quarter of 2000, effective January 1, 2000. Management believes that the
adoption of SAB 101 will not have a material impact on the Company's financial
position or results of operations.

Condition and Results of Operations
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
When used in this Form 10-QSB and in future filings by HERC with the Securities
and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), in HERC's press releases and in oral statements
made with the approval of an authorized executive officer of HERC, the words or
phrases "are expected", "HERC anticipates", "will continue", "believe",
"project", "estimated", "will enhance" or similar expressions (including
confirmations by an authorized executive officer of HERC of any such expressions
made by a third party with respect to HERC) are intended to identify
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of that term in Section 27A of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("the Act"), and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended. Readers are cautioned not to place
undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, each of which speak only
as of the date made. Such statements are subject to certain risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from
historical earnings and those currently anticipated or projected. Such risks
include, but are not limited to, adequate cash flow and financing for
implementation of its business plan, continued growth in its various customer
segments, effective marketing of its products directly by HERC and through
marketing partners and the other risks detailed in the HERC Form 10-KSB filed
with the SEC. HERC has no obligation to publicly release the result of any
revisions that may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect any
anticipated events or circumstances occurring after the date of such statements.
This discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations
should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial
statements and the related disclosures included elsewhere herein.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER
30, 1999
Sales of $1,097,000 in the third quarter were $413,000 ahead of 1999 third
quarter sales of $683,000 because of increased revenue generated from pipe
cleaning services and industrial chemical sales. Sales of pipe cleaning services
were $1,013,000 compared to $646,000 in the third quarter of 1999. Of the pipe
cleaning work, $804,000 (73% of total revenue) was performed pursuant to a
contract with the United States Navy compared to $454,000 (66% of total revenue)
in 1999. Industrial chemical sales increased to $84,000 for the third quarter of
2000 compared to $38,000 in 1999.
Consolidated gross margins were 45% and 58% in 2000 and 1999, respectively. The
reduction in gross margin percentage in 2000 was caused by cleaning pipe systems
on different classes of ships, cost overruns on an industrial pipe cleaning
project and performing pipe cleaning services on ships located outside of the
state of Virginia which resulted in certain reimbursable costs to HERC which are
included in revenue and cost of goods sold. HERC expects that gross margin
percentages will continue to fluctuate as changes in revenue mix occur.
Gross profit increased from $395,000 in 1999 to $491,000 in 2000 due to
increased revenue. General and administrative expenses increased by $127,000
primarily because of increases in personnel, employee benefits, salaries, fees,
and other general expenses. Selling expenses were flat from one period to the
next.
HERC's operating loss increased to $71,000 in 2000 from $43,000 in 1999. Net
loss was $68,000 for the third quarter of 2000 compared to net income of $54,000
for the same period in 1999. The net income in 1999 included a gain on the sale
of equipment of $96,000.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,
1999
Sales of $3,715,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 were $1,417,000
ahead of sales of $2,298,000 for the comparable nine-month period in 1999
because of increases in revenue generated from pipe cleaning services and
industrial chemical sales. Sales of pipe cleaning services were $3,348,000
compared to $2,082,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. Of the pipe
cleaning work, $2,846,000 (77% of total revenue) was performed pursuant to a
contract with the United States Navy compared to $1,540,000 (67% of total
revenue) in 1999. Industrial chemical sales increased to $367,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 compared to $216,000 for the same period in
1999.
Consolidated gross margins were 48% and 57% in 2000 and 1999, respectively. The
reduction in gross margin percentage in 2000 was caused by cleaning pipe systems
on different classes of ships, cost overruns on certain industrial pipe cleaning
projects and performing pipe cleaning services on ships located outside of the
state of Virginia which resulted in certain reimbursable costs to HERC which are
included in revenue and cost of goods sold. HERC expects that gross margin
percentages will continue to fluctuate as changes in revenue mix occur.
Gross profit increased from $1,302,000 in 1999 to $1,792,000 in 2000 due to
increased revenue. General and administrative expenses increased by $246,000
mainly because of increases in payroll and staffing in key management areas in
addition to other general expenses. Selling expenses increased by $28,000
primarily because of increased commissions generated by higher revenue.
HERC realized an operating profit of $86,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 2000 compared to an operating loss of $131,000 for the comparable period in
1999. Net Income was $87,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000
compared to net income of $19,000 for the same period in 1999. The net income of
$19,000 in 1999 included income from discontinued operations of $46,000 and a
gain on the sale of equipment of $96,000.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash and cash equivalents were $228,000 at September 30, 2000 and $66,000 at
December 31, 1999. Working capital was $783,000 and $593,000 at those respective
dates. The increase in cash during 2000 is a function of cash provided by
operating activities offset by cash used in investing activities.
As of September 30, 2000, HERC had no factored receivables under its factoring
facility.
HERC currently has a contract with one customer responsible for a majority of
HERC's revenues and HERC expects the high concentration level to continue
throughout 2000 and beyond. Thus, any material delay, cancellation or reduction
of orders from this customer could have a material adverse effect on HERC's
operations and financial position. Sales to the U.S. Navy under the Navy
contract accounted for 77% and 67% of consolidated revenues for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
Management has no plans to sell additional securities to raise cash and can make
no guarantee that it could sell additional securities. However, any such sale,
