NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Interim Financial Data

The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-QSB and Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. However, management believes the accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of Consulier Engineering, Inc. (“Consulier”) as of March 31, 2004 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. The results of operations and cash flows for the period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations or cash flows that can be expected for the year ending December 31, 2004. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in Consulier’s annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Reclassifications

In order to maintain consistency and comparability between periods presented, certain amounts have been reclassified from the previously reported condensed interim consolidated financial statements in order to conform to the financial statement presentation of the current period.

Basis of Consolidation

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements include Consulier, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Consulier International, Inc., (“CII”) and C-6 Products, Inc., (“C-6”) (collectively known as the “Company”). All intercompany balances and transactions between Consulier and its wholly-owned subsidiaries have been eliminated.

Inventories

Inventories, stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market, consist of CRA-Z Soap finished goods.

Partnership and Limited Liability Companies – Investments

The Company’s partnership and limited liability companies (“LLC”) investments, all of which are less than 50% interests, are accounted for using the equity method. The Company owns less than 20% in the partnership investment, however, the Company has the ability to significantly influence this investee in conjunction with a general partner (a related party who is the primary shareholder of Consulier). Income or loss is allocated to Consulier based on the partnership and LLC agreements. The Company reviews its partnership and limited liability companies investments for other than temporary declines in value on a monthly basis by analyzing the underlying investee’s actual revenue, earnings capacity and estimated future undiscounted cash flows.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION (CONTINUED)

Use of Estimates

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

NOTE 2: DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Effective December 31, 2002, the Company sold 70% of the common stock of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Southeast Automotive Acquisition Corporation (“Southeast”), to executive officers of Southeast, in exchange for the return of 45,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, and a promissory note (the “Note”) of approximately $1,600,000 payable to the Company by Southeast for its pre-existing debt to the Company, collateralized by Southeast’s assets, the common stock in Southeast and the purchasers’ personal guarantees, limited to the cash in Southeast at December 31, 2002 of approximately $228,000. The Note bears interest at 6% and is payable in monthly installments of principal and interest of approximately $9,600 beginning February 20, 2003 through January 2033. Southeast’s activities included primarily the sales of automobile parts in the automotive after-market.

On June 29, 2003, the Company transferred its remaining 30% ownership of the common stock of Southeast to the former executive officers of Southeast in consideration of their agreement to amend the Note to reflect an original principal balance of $1,764,581 with a term of 40 years from June 2003, with a balloon payment of $206,916 due on May 20, 2043; the remaining terms of the Note were unchanged. On June 30, 2003, the Company sold and assigned the Note to the majority stockholder of Consulier, together with its security interest for the consideration of $1,762,575, the then current unpaid principal balance and accrued interest due on the Note.

Since the note was sold and assigned, the Company is no longer considered to be the primary beneficiary. As such, Southeast is considered to be divested as of the assigned date of the Note, June 30, 2003, and as a result the Company reflected the operations and disposal of Southeast as discontinued operations. Net sales for Southeast during the three months ended March 31, 2003 were $445,555.

Consulier owns approximately 10% of AVM, L.P.’s (“AVM”) capital as of March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2003. Based on capital and earnings distributions provided in the partnership agreement, Consulier was allocated approximately 8.5% of AVM’s earnings during the three month period ended March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2003.

Systems Technologies, LLC

During August 2002, Consulier purchased a 14.25% interest in Systems Technologies, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“ST, LLC”). Consulier made additional contributions of $4,057,005 to increase its investment during 2002. During the three months ended March 31, 2004, Consulier’s made additional contributions of $1,000,000 to increase its investment in ST, LLC. As of March 31, 2004, Consulier’s interest in ST, LLC totaled 34%. ST, LLC is a member of Patient Care Technology Systems, LLC, a California limited liability company (“PCTS”). ST, LLC’s primary asset is its approximate 75% (at March 31, 2004) investment in PCTS. The original ST, LLC operating agreement provided that the losses from ST, LLC be allocated to ST, LLC’s initial members and then to Consulier based on investment percentage. Effective April 1, 2003, this agreement was amended and provides that Consulier receives allocated losses to the extent of capital contributions from inception. Consequently, the loss allocated to Consulier is greater than 34%. Consulier’s principal shareholder owns approximately 51% of ST, LLC, and together with Consulier’s 34%, the combined ownership aggregates 85%. Consulier can require Consulier’s principal shareholder to purchase its interest in ST, LLC for cash equal to the Consulier’s capital account balance in ST, LLC at any time with 60 days written notice.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2004, sales decreased $25,025 from the comparable amounts recorded during the quarter ended March 31, 2003. This resulted from the sale, during 2003, of previously written off inventory. Operating loss from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2004 was ($404,129), or ($.08) per share, compared to income of $280,991, or $.06 per share, for the first quarter of 2003 from continuing operations.

Decrease in operating expenses was due to a decrease in administrative expenses.

Investment income from AVM L.P. (“AVM”) increased by approximately $165,000. However, the allocated loss from equity investees increased by more than $1,229,000.

Investment in AVM – Investment income from Consulier’s AVM interest was $777,804 in the first quarter of 2004, a 27% increase from the comparable 2003 quarter’s income of $612,778. This represents annualized returns of 168% and 132%, respectively, on Consulier’s average investment during each quarter.

Investment in BioSafe Systems, LLC (“Biosafe”) – Equity in the income of BioSafe was $55,868 in the first quarter of 2004, compared to 2003 quarter’s income of $83,753. This represents the Company’s 40% interest in BioSafe’s net income of approximately $140,000 in the first quarter of 2004, compared to income of $209,000 in the first quarter of 2003.

Investment in Systems Technologies, LLC (“ST, LLC”) – Equity in the loss of ST, LLC was ($1,365,219), in the first quarter of 2004, compared to a loss of ($165,305) in the first quarter of 2003.

Household and Tools Products – C-6 Products, Inc. incurred a net loss of ($3,685) in the three months ended March 31, 2004 consisting mostly of storage costs, compared to a net loss of ($12,922) in the three months ended March 31, 2003.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At March 31, 2004, Consulier’s cash totaled $1,222,548 as compared to $1,002,613 at December 31, 2003. Net cash provided by operations was $551,174 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 (primarily an income tax refund of $600,000) compared to $175,484 of net cash used in the three months ended March 31, 2003. Net cash used by investing activities was primarily additional investment in ST, LLC of $1,000,000 offset by the distribution of $777,804 from AVM during the three months ended March 31, 2004.

The ability of Consulier to continue to generate cash flow in excess of its normal operating requirements depends almost entirely on the performance of its limited partnership investment in AVM. Consulier cannot, with any degree of assurance, predict whether there will be a continuation of the net return experienced in the period that the AVM limited partnership interest has been owned. However, Consulier does not expect that the rate of return will decline to the point where Consulier has negative cash flow. Furthermore, although AVM has given Consulier no indication of any intention on its part to redeem the partnership interest, there can be no assurance that AVM will not do so in the future.

The Company has a $2,000,000 line of credit from a bank available, which has not been used. It is anticipated that the cash requirements for ST, LLC will reduce in the future as the sales increase within that limited liability company.

FUTURE OUTLOOK

Based on AVM’s recent operations and operating results over the past five years, management expects continued annualized returns in 2004 on Consulier’s limited partnership investments. However, there is no guarantee that the annualized return of 168% in the first quarter of 2004 will be maintained.

Consulier International, Inc. has been developing new retail and distribution outlets locally, nationally and internationally. There are several trade shows scheduled for marketing the Cra-Z Hand and All Purpose Cleaner throughout 2004 and the internet web site continues to be a good lead generator with applications for distribution being received through the site from countries all over the world and new marketing materials are being developed.

BioSafe continues to remain optimistic that 2004 growth, projected over the 2003 reported volumes, can be maintained at historic year-to-year growth rates. First quarter 2004 volumes were 4% ahead of the similar period in the prior year. Considering the seasonality of the served markets, and the potential impact of weather and crop related issues, the first quarter’s results were encouraging. The new GreenClean granular Aquatic algaecide product has been well received during its initial introductions to the retail market. Furthermore, a more concentrated formula, being considered for introduction in the second quarter, will be targeted at larger applications.

The Company intends to substantially increase its investment in ST, LLC over the next three to five years. While the exact amount of the Company’s future investment has not been quantified at this time, it is expected that the investment is to be between $5 million and $7 million. The exact amount will be based upon market acceptance of Patient Care Technology Systems, LLC’s (“PCTS”) Amelior products and the need for investment funds. PCTS currently has contracts for 3 additional installations which are scheduled to be in place during the 2nd and 3rd quarters of 2004. The new installations which should serve approximately 152,000 patients annually would bring the estimated number of patients served to approximately 381,000 annually. During 2004, PCTS plans to expand its product scope to incorporate solutions for departments in addition to Emergency Room, such as Operating Room, ICU and Labor & Delivery. PCTS plans to implement their expansion plans in the acute care market through a wider product offering by developing strategic partnerships with vendors that offer unique technologies and augment their core emergency department information system.
