NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

1. Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 have been prepared by us without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of September 30, 2010 and 2009, and for the periods then ended, have been made. Those adjustments consist of normal and recurring adjustments. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2009, has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet as of that date.

Certain information and note disclosures normally included in our annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with a reading of the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

The results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

2. Supplemental Cash Flow Information

Cash paid for interest for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, was $4,578 and $6,416, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company had non-cash transactions related to share based payments described in greater detail in Note 5. In addition, a total of $90,000 of accounts payable were converted into common stock and $216,000 of accrued expenses were converted into convertible notes payable. An additional $340,000 of accounts payable were converted into notes payable with payments due at various dates through 2010.

3. Notes Payable and Long-Term Debt

We issued convertible notes payable in December 2009 and during the nine months ended September 30, 2010. These notes bear interest at a rate of 8% and are due in 2012. The notes and resulting accrued interest are convertible into shares of our common stock at rates of $0.20 to $0.25 per share. The face amount of the notes due was $2,146,000, and we valued the conversion rights at $647,250, which was recorded as a discount at the time of issuance. This discount is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the note. One of these notes, with a principal amount of $25,000 was converted into 130,810 shares common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2010. $216,000 of these notes were issued to officers and directors of the Company.

In addition, we issued a non-interest bearing note payable in the amount of $340,000 in payment of an accounts payable, due at various dates in 2010.

4. Stockholders’ Equity

During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we issued 1,000,000 restricted shares of common stock and received proceeds of $200,000 in an exempt offering under Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933 and 18,200 shares for total proceeds of $4,368 in connection with the exercise of options by former employees. We also issued 352,657 restricted shares of common stock in payment of accounts payable in the amount of $90,000. We issued no shares of stock for cash during the nine month period ended September 30, 2009, but did issue 77,917 shares of restricted stock in connection with compensation of our Directors as described in Note 5.

5. Share-Based Payments

We use the fair value method to account for stock based compensation. We recorded $205,892 and $163,477 in compensation expense in the periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, related to options and restricted stock issued under our stock-based incentive compensation plans. This includes expense related to both options issued and committed but unissued restricted stock in the current year and options issued in prior years for which the requisite service period for those options includes the current year. The fair value of these options was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Information related to the assumptions used in this model is set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. For options issued in 2010, the same approximate assumptions were used. The period ended September 30, 2009 includes $27,976 of expense related to restricted stock provided to non-employee Directors of the Company as compensation.

6. Contingencies

Litigation

The Company is a defendant in minor lawsuits described in greater detail in its 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company expects any potential eventual payment to have no material effect on the financial statements.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following is management’s discussion and analysis of certain significant factors that have affected our financial position and operating results during the periods included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements that we believe are within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which are intended to be covered by the safe harbors created by such acts. For this purpose, any statements that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements, including the statements under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" regarding our strategy, future operations, future expectations or future estimates, financial position and objectives of management. Those statements in this Form 10-Q containing the words "believes," "anticipates," "plans," "likely" "expects" and similar expressions constitute forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions relating to our operations, results of operations, competitive factors, shifts in market demand and other risks and uncertainties.

Although we believe that the assumptions underlying our forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate and actual results may differ from those indicated by the forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-Q. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-Q, you should not consider the inclusion of such information as a representation by us or anyone else that we will achieve such results. Moreover, we assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting such forward-looking statements.

Nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009

OVERVIEW

We are primarily a nanotechnology company engaged in the performance of services and development of technologies based principally on our intellectual property. During all periods presented, our primary revenues were earned as a result of reimbursed research expenditures and licenses at our Applied Nanotech, Inc. (“ANI”) subsidiary. As more fully discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, we expect to incur additional research and development expenses throughout 2010 in developing our technology. We are focused on licensing our technology and obtaining sufficient revenue to cover our ongoing research expenditures and operating expenses.

OUTLOOK

We expect our present cash balances, which were approximately $1.3 million at September 30, 2010, when combined with expected revenue sources, to enable us to operate well into the second quarter of 2011, and we expect to sign additional contracts which would extend that period further. We have a plan to achieve profitability in 2010, and that plan anticipated losses in some quarters. A critical component of that plan is the receipt of license fees – either in the form of an upfront payment, or from ongoing royalties as a result of product sales by our licensees. We received a license fee payment of $1.0 million from our strategic partner, Ishihara Chemical Co, Ltd. in June 2010, and we expect to receive additional upfront license fees from other licensees during 2010. We still believe it is likely that we will achieve breakeven or better in 2010.

At the present time, there can be no assurance that we will achieve our plan for profitability in 2010, or even break-even, or that expected revenue sources will all occur as planned. At our present level of activity, it is not possible for us to achieve profitability without license fees. In order to achieve profitability solely based on research revenues, our research revenue would have to more than double from our expected level for 2010, and the majority of the revenue would have to come from non-governmental sources. The mix of revenues received could also cause the revenues required to reach break-even to increase. If revenue producing projects require unanticipated expenses, or heavier than anticipated use of outside services and materials, we may be unable to achieve profitability at the expected level of revenues. We believe that we have the ability to continue to raise funding, if necessary, to enable us to continue operations until we reach profitability.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (cont.)

This plan is based on current development plans, current operating plans, the current regulatory environment, historical experience in the development of electronic products and general economic conditions. Changes could occur which would cause certain assumptions on which this plan is based to be no longer valid. If adequate funds are not available from operations, or other sources of financing, we may have to eliminate, or reduce substantially, expenditures for research and development, testing and production of its products, or obtain funds through arrangements with other entities that may require us to relinquish rights to certain of our technologies or products. Such results could materially and adversely affect us.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

In June 2010, we received a $1.0 million payment from Ishihara Chemical Company, Ltd. that completes the upfront portion of the payment for their exclusive license to our copper inks and pastes. In addition, we will receive a royalty of 4% of their future sales of inks and pastes that use the technology.

In September 2010, we received a grant from the U.S. Department of Energy in the amount of approximately $1.6 million to commercialize our aluminum inks for use in the production of solar cells. This is a one year program to establish a pilot production facility for these inks.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

There are no recent accounting pronouncements that we have not implemented that are expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

Our cash position increased significantly during the period. At September 30, 2010 we had cash and cash equivalents of approximatley $1.3 million as compared with cash and cash equivalents of slightly less than $300,000 at December 31, 2009. This increase in cash is primarily the result of cash provided by financing activities.

We had net cash provided by financing activities of approximately $1.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 (the “2010 Period”), as compared with negligible cash used in financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2009 (the “2009 Period”). The cash flow in the 2010 Period was the result of the issuance of common stock and convertible notes payable to increase our cash balance and solidify our financial position, partially offset by payments on capital leases and notes payable. The cash used in the 2009 Period was the result of payments on capital leases.

Our net cash used in operating activities increased from approximately $25,000 in the 2009 Period to approximately $850,000 in the 2010 Period. This is primarily the result of operating factors discussed below in the “Results of Operations”. We believe it is likely that we will be profitable in the fourth quarter of 2010, which will result in cash provided by operations for the quarter. We also believe that it is likely that we will achieve positive cash flow from operations for 2010.

Cash used in investing activities in both periods was insignificant and related to the purchase of capital equipment. We expect cash used in investing activities to remain at relatively insignificant levels for the balance of 2010.

Historically, the principal source of our liquidity has been funds received from exempt offerings of common stock. Our current cash balance is strong and our plan is to sign additional contracts so that we do not need to raise additional debt or equity in 2010; however, in the event that we do need additional funds, we may seek to sell additional debt or equity securities. While we expect to be able to obtain any funds needed for operations, there can be no assurance that any of these financing alternatives can be arranged on commercially acceptable terms. We believe that our success in reaching profitability will be dependent on our patent portfolio and upon the viability of products using our technology and their acceptance in the marketplace, as well as our ability to obtain additional debt or equity financings in the future, if needed.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (cont.)

We expect to continue to incur substantial expenses for research and development ("R&D"). We expect some of our licensees to have products on the market that will generate royalties for us by early 2011. However; certain products that may be developed by other potential licensees of our technology may not be available for commercial sale or routine use for a period of one to two years. While we would likely receive initial license payments, ongoing royalty streams related to some licenses may not be available until potential licensees have introduced products using our technology. Therefore, it is possible that the commercialization of our existing and proposed products may require additional capital in excess of our current funding. We do, however, as discussed, have a plan to operate profitably in 2010 based on the receipt of research funding, license agreements, and other revenues. Achievement of at least break-even would enable us to continue our research without seeking additional debt or equity financing once break-even or profitability is attained.

Because the timing and receipt of revenues from the license or royalty agreements will be tied to the achievement of certain product development, testing and marketing objectives by our licensees, which cannot be predicted with certainty, there may be substantial fluctuations in our results of operations. If revenues do not increase as rapidly as anticipated, or if product development and testing require more funding than anticipated, we may be required to curtail our operations or seek additional financing from other sources at some point in the future. The combined effect of the foregoing may prevent us from achieving sustained profitability for an extended period of time.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Our net loss for the third quarter ended September 30, 2010 was $1,053,997 as compared with the net loss of $4,435 for the same period last year. Our net loss of $1,205,151for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was significantly lower than the loss of $1,491,576 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. This decreased loss was the result of reasons set forth below. We believe it is likely that we will be profitable in the fourth quarter of 2010 and that profit will enable us to operate at a breakeven or better level for 2010.

Our revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 totaled $949,233 compared to $1,506,673 for the same quarter of 2009. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010 (the “2010 Period”), our revenues were $3,824,808 as compared with $3,253,295 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 (the “2009 Period”), a substantial increase. The revenues in both periods were all from ANI and the majority was from reimbursed research expenditures. The 2010 Period included a license payment of $1.0 million, while the 2009 period included a $500,000 license payment. The majority of research revenues in both periods came primarily from government contracts. At the present stage of our development, significant conclusions cannot be drawn by comparing revenues from period to period; however, we would expect the revenue for the balance of 2010 to increase over the level of the first nine months. Our business strategy is built on developing a royalty stream from licensing our intellectual property. To supplement this, we also seek funding from both governmental and private sources to help fund our research. Until we are able to develop a steady revenue stream from royalties, our revenues will tend to fluctuate greatly from quarter to quarter. Much of our private research funding tends to come in large amounts at sporadic times.

We have a revenue backlog of approximately $4.75 million as of the date of this filing, as compared to our backlog of approximately $3.2 million as of September 30, 2009, and we expect our research revenue to remain at or above current levels in future quarters as a result of this increased backlog. Our ability to perform continued research, or fulfill our backlog, will not require significant additional personnel. We do not anticipate hiring more than one additional person for the balance of the year, unless we receive significant new revenues.

We incurred research and development expenses of $3,290,000 in the 2010 Period, which was up from the amount of $2,738,000 incurred in the 2009 Period. This reflects an increase in the general level of research activity and an increase in government funded research projects. We expect research and development expenditures to continue to gradually increase for the remainder of the year as additional new funded projects begin. Significant new revenue producing research programs beyond those already identified could, however, cause research and development expenditures to increase further.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (cont.)

Our selling, general, and administrative expenses were $1,471,942 for the 2010 Period, compared with $2,008,246 for the 2009 Period – a decrease of approximately $500,000 This decrease was the result of our wide ranging cost reduction efforts which included reductions in personnel, redesigning our Board Compensation Package, not hiring a replacement for the CEO that departed in May 2009, a reduction in patent expenses, and other cost reductions.

Our interest income is insignificant, but decreased during the 2010 Period as a result of a lower average level of invested cash balances, combined with lower interest rates in 2010. Our interest income results from the investment of excess funds in short term interest bearing instruments, primarily certificates of deposit, commercial paper, and money market funds. We expect our interest income to remain at insignificant levels for the balance of 2010. Our interest expense increased significantly in the 2010 Period as a result of our issuance of the convertible notes payable. This interest expense includes both the accrued stated interest rate on the debt and the amortization of the discount associated with the notes, both of which are noncash items. We would expect our interest expense to remain at these higher levels for the balance of 2010 and until these notes are converted to equity.

During the 2009 Period we had a gain of $6,000 related to payments received related to intellectual property sold by our Electronic Billboard Technology, Inc. subsidiary in 2006. It is possible that we will receive additional payments related to this agreement in future quarters and future years; however, the amount of such payments, if any, can’t be predicted.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We do not use any derivative financial instruments for hedging, speculative, or trading purposes. Our exposure to market risk is currently immaterial.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the period covered by this report (the "Evaluation Date"). Based upon this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the material information required to be included in our Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms relating to the Company, including, our consolidated subsidiaries, and was made known to them by others within those entities, particularly during the period when this report was being prepared.

In addition, there were no significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the Evaluation Date. We have not identified any material weaknesses in our internal controls, and therefore, no corrective actions were taken.
