                         Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE A - Summary of Accounting Policies
---------------------------------------

Basis of Presentation
---------------------

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared
assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates
the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal
course of business. The Company has recurring losses from operations and needs
additional working capital. On August 12, 2004, the Board of Directors approved
management's business restructuring plan to take full advantage of the favorable
battery settlement agreement announced on July 7, 2004 and the increasing market
interest in solar energy systems and hybrid electric vehicles. Management
believes that funds generated from operations; new business agreements; equity
financing, including the exercise of Common Stock purchase warrants and exercise
of stock options; debt financing; new government contracts and the cost-
containment initiatives (see Note B of Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements), together with existing cash and cash equivalents, will be adequate
to support the Company's operations for the coming year. However, the amount and
timing of such activities are uncertain. Accordingly, no assurances can be given
as to the timing or success of the aforementioned plans, negotiations,
discussions and programs.

     These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern in the absence of sufficient additional
funds and the achievement of profitable operations. The accompanying
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability and classification of assets carrying amounts or the amount and
classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be
unable to continue as a going concern (see Note B of Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements).

Nature of Business
------------------

      Energy Conversion Devices, Inc. (ECD) is a technology, product development
and manufacturing company engaged in the invention, engineering, development and
commercialization of new materials, products and production technology in the
fields of alternative energy technology and information technology.

Financial Statement Presentation, Principles of Consolidation and
Equity Accounting
-----------------------------------------------------------------

      The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ECD and its
100%-owned manufacturing and sales subsidiaries United Solar Ovonic Corp. and
United Solar Ovonic LLC (jointly referred to as "United Solar Ovonic") and its
approximately 91%-owned subsidiary Ovonic Battery Company, Inc. (Ovonic Battery)
(collectively the "Company").  No minority interest related to Ovonic Battery
is recorded in the consolidated financial statements because there is no
additional funding requirement by the minority

                         Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE A - Summary of Accounting Policies (Continued)
---------------------------------------------------

shareholders. The Company has a number of strategic alliances and has four
major investments accounted for using the equity method: (i) Cobasys LLC
(formerly known as Texaco Ovonic Battery Systems LLC), a joint venture between
Ovonic Battery and ChevronTexaco Technology Ventures LLC (CTTV), a unit of
ChevronTexaco Corporation, each having 50% interest in the joint venture; (ii)
Texaco Ovonic Hydrogen Systems LLC, a joint venture between ECD and CTTV, each
having 50% interest in the joint venture; (iii) Ovonyx, Inc., a 41.7%-owned
joint venture with Mr. Tyler Lowrey, Intel Capital and other investors; and (iv)
Ovonic Media, LLC, a joint venture owned 51% by General Electric through its GE
Plastics business unit and 49% by ECD. See Note E of Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements for discussions of all of the Company's ventures.

      At September 30, 2004 and at June 30, 2004, the Company's investments in
Cobasys, Ovonyx, Texaco Ovonic Hydrogen Systems and Ovonic Media are recorded at
zero. The Company will continue to carry its investment in each of these joint
ventures at zero until the venture becomes profitable (based upon the venture's
history of sustainable profits), at which time the Company will start to
recognize over a period of years its share, if any, of the then equity of each
of the ventures, and will recognize its share of each venture's profits or
losses on the equity method of accounting. To the extent that the Company has
made cash or other contributions, it recognizes its proportionate share of any
losses until the investment reaches zero.

     Intellectual property, including patents, resulting from the Company's
investments in its technologies, is valued at zero in the balance sheet.
Intellectual property provides the foundation for the creation of the important
strategic alliances whereby the Company provides intellectual property and
patents and joint venture partners provide cash.

     While the Company believes, based upon the opinion of legal counsel, that
it has no obligation to fund any losses that its joint ventures incur beyond the
Company's investment, the Company has decided to fund certain of its joint
ventures (see Note E of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

     Upon consolidation, all intercompany accounts and transactions are
eliminated. Any profits on intercompany transactions are eliminated to the
extent of the Company's ownership percentage.

Use of Estimates
----------------

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP)
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts
reported therein. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates,
actual results reported in future periods may be based upon amounts that differ
from those estimates.

Reclassifications
-----------------

     Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with 2004
presentation.

Overhead and General and Administrative Allocations
---------------------------------------------------

     The Company allocates overhead and general and administrative expenses to
product development research expenses and to cost of revenues from research and
development agreements based on a percentage of direct labor costs. For cost of
revenues from product development agreements, this allocation is limited to the
amount of revenues, after direct expenses, under the applicable agreements.
Overhead is allocated to cost of product sales through the application of
overhead to inventory costs.

     The following is a summary of the gross selling, general and administrative
expenses and the aforementioned allocations:

Distribution from Joint Venture
-------------------------------

     In July 2004, Cobasys made an $8,000,000 special distribution to each of
Ovonic Battery and CTTV for partial reimbursement of legal expenses paid on
behalf of Cobasys for litigation with Matsushita Electric Industrial Co. Ltd.
(MEI) and related companies (see Note B of Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements).

Stock-Based Compensation
------------------------

     ECD applies APB 25 to its stock-based compensation awards to employees. Had
compensation costs for ECD's stock option plans been determined based upon the
fair value at the grant date for awards under these plans consistent with the
methodology prescribed under SFAS 123, the Company's net income (loss) and net
income (loss) per share for the periods ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 would
have changed as follows:

Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share
---------------------------------------------

     Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net
income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. ECD
uses the treasury stock method to calculate diluted earnings per share.
Potential dilution exists from stock options and warrants. Weighted average
number of shares outstanding and basic and diluted net income (loss) per share
for the three months ended September 30 are computed as follows:

                                                       2004            2003
                                                   ------------    ------------
Weighted average number of shares outstanding:
   - for basic net income (loss) per share          25,173,150       21,902,459
   - for diluted net income (loss) per share        25,425,464       21,902,459

Net income (loss)                                 $  1,347,952    $ (14,281,583)

BASIC NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE                 $       0.05    $        (.65)

DILUTED NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE               $       0.05    $        (.65)


     Due to the Company's net loss, the 2003 weighted average shares of
potential dilutive securities of 5,343 were excluded from the calculations of
diluted income (loss) per share, as inclusion of these securities would have
been antidilutive to the net income (loss) per share. Additional securities of
2,543,767 and 2,019,241, respectively, were excluded from the 2004 and 2003
calculations of weighted average shares of potential dilutive securities.
Because of the relationship between the exercise prices and the average market
price of ECD's Common Stock during these periods, these securities would have
been antidilutive regardless of the Company's net income or loss.

Recent Pronouncements
---------------------

     In March 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ratified
the consensus reached on the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 03-1,
"The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain
Investments," effective for impairment evaluations in reporting periods
beginning after June 15, 2004. EITF 03-1 includes application guidance to
determine whether an investment, including a cost-method investment, is
considered impaired; whether that impairment is other-than-temporary; and, the
measurement of an impairment loss. The Company implemented this EITF on July 1,
2004.

     In March 2004, the FASB ratified the consensus reached on EITF Issue No.
03-6, "Participating Securities and the Two Class Method under FASB Statement
No. 128," effective for fiscal periods beginning after the date of Board
ratification. EITF 03-6 requires the inclusion of certain participating
securities in the computation of earnings per share. The Company implemented
this EITF on July 1, 2004.

     The adoption of these two EITFs did not have an effect on the Company's
consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Restructuring
-------------

     On August 12, 2004, the Board of Directors approved management's business
restructuring plan to take full advantage of the favorable battery settlement
agreement announced on July 7, 2004 and the increasing market interest in solar
energy systems and hybrid electric vehicles. Our strategy is to transition from
a research-oriented company to the next phase of development, which is to
commercialize the products we have developed and concentrate on growing sales
revenues and equity value in our core commercial businesses with the goal of
moving the Company into a position of having sustained profitability by July
2006.

     The restructuring will increase product revenues while enabling us to carry
out major cost-reduction measures, including significant reductions in the
workforce to right size activities to support our core commercial businesses. We
will manage a reduced portfolio of advanced product development activities and a
leaner R&D team to grow future businesses.

     The core commercial businesses on which the Company is focusing are United
Solar Ovonic, Cobasys and Ovonyx.

Settlement Agreement
--------------------

     On July 7, 2004, ECD announced that it and Cobasys have entered into a
settlement agreement with MEI, Panasonic EV Energy Co., Ltd. (PEVE), and Toyota
Motor Corporation with respect to patent infringement disputes and counterclaims
involving nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries before the International Chamber
of Commerce, International Court of Arbitration. Under the terms of the
settlement, no party admitted any liability.

     As part of the settlement, ECD and its subsidiary, Ovonic Battery, received
a $10 million license fee from MEI and PEVE. This fee was recorded as a deferred
patent license fee in July 2004 and is being amortized to income over 10.5
years. The Company recognized $238,095 as revenues from license and other
agreements in the three months ended September 30, 2004 in connection with the
amortization of this fee. In addition, Cobasys received a $20 million license
fee from MEI, PEVE and Toyota, of which $4 million was placed in escrow for a
next-generation NiMH battery development project plan. Upon receipt of the
license fee, Cobasys made an $8 million distribution each to Ovonic Battery and
CTTV representing a partial reimbursement of legal expenses in the three months
ended September 30, 2004. The Company recorded this $8 million as a distribution
from joint venture in the three months ended September 30, 2004.

Cobasys (formerly Texaco Ovonic Battery Systems)

     In July 2001, Ovonic Battery and CTTV, a unit of ChevronTexaco, formed a
strategic alliance named Texaco Ovonic Battery Systems LLC (renamed Cobasys LLC
in March 2004). ChevronTexaco will invest up to $178,000,000 ($144,000,000 of
which has been received as of September 30, 2004) in the venture. Cobasys is
owned 50% by Ovonic Battery and 50% by CTTV.

     The Company recorded revenues from Cobasys of $475,000 and $1,417,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, for services
performed on behalf of Cobasys (primarily for advanced product development and
market development work). The Company recorded revenues of $34,000 and $2,000
for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, for
products sold to Cobasys.

     The Company also recorded revenues from Cobasys of $45,000 for both the
three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 for rent of a portion of one of
the Company's facilities.

---------------------------------------------------

     In October 2002, ECD, through a newly formed company, Ovonic Cognitive
Computer, Inc., which is owned 95% by ECD and 5% by Ovonyx, made a capital
contribution of $1,000,000 in Ovonyx in exchange for technology previously
contributed by ECD to Ovonyx and an exclusive, royalty-bearing license, which
requires annual minimum royalty payments in order to maintain its exclusivity.
ECD made a $50,000 minimum royalty payment in November 2003. ECD recorded its
$1,050,000 investment in Ovonyx and accounts for this investment on the equity
method and is recognizing its proportionate share of Ovonyx losses to the extent
of its $1,050,000 investment. In the three months ended September 30, 2003, ECD
recorded an equity loss of $244,000.

     ECD recorded revenues from Ovonyx of $63,000 and $37,000, respectively, for
the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 representing services
provided to this joint venture.

Texaco Ovonic Hydrogen Systems

     In October 2000, ECD and CTTV, a unit of ChevronTexaco, formed Texaco
Ovonic Hydrogen Systems. As of September 30, 2004, ChevronTexaco has funded
$62,398,000 for initial product and market development, the primary use of which
is to fund a contract from Texaco Ovonic Hydrogen Systems to ECD to further
develop the Ovonic solid hydrogen storage technology. Funding may be cancelled
if mutually agreed-upon milestones are not satisfied. At its meeting on June 30,
2004, the Management Committee of Texaco Ovonic Hydrogen Systems did not approve
the accomplishment of three of the joint venture's milestones. The Management
Committee will review and determine the satisfaction of these milestones at a
future meeting. The joint venture is owned 50% by CTTV and 50% by ECD. ECD has
contributed intellectual property and licenses.

     The following sets forth certain financial data regarding Texaco Ovonic
Hydrogen Systems that are derived from its financial statements.

     During the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, the Company
recorded revenues of $2,643,000 and $2,450,000, respectively, for services
provided to this joint venture, primarily for market development and advanced
product development work.

Ovonic Media

     In 2000, we and General Electric, through its GE Plastics business unit,
formed a joint venture, Ovonic Media, LLC, to design, develop, demonstrate and
commercialize our proprietary continuous web roll-to-roll technology for the
ultra-high-speed manufacture of optical media products, primarily rewritable
DVDs. GE owns 51% of Ovonic Media and we own 49%. We have contributed
intellectual property, know-how, licenses and equipment to the joint venture. GE
has made cash and other contributions to the joint venture. Since its inception,
Ovonic Media has paid us $5.6 million through the end of fiscal year 2003 for
services to the joint venture.

     GE informed ECD that additional funding after January 3, 2003 was
suspended. GE and ECD have been discussing as how to best position the joint
venture in order to meet the needs of the marketplace, and secure new equity
investors and strategic partners to fund the joint venture's operations. As the
next business step, we are seeking to secure a partner that is a leader in the
storage media industry to facilitate the commercialization and funding of our
technology. In the interim, ECD is directly funding continued product
development activities for this technology at a reduced level.

Investments in Rare Earth Ovonic

     During the year ended June 30, 2000, ECD and Ovonic Battery signed an
agreement with Rare Earth High-Tech of Inner Mongolia, China. The agreement
called for the creation of joint ventures for manufacturing and licensing of
advanced NiMH battery technology, alloy powders, advanced Ovonic nickel
hydroxide materials and production equipment, all for certain battery
applications for NiMH batteries. As of September 30, 2004, three of the
contemplated five joint ventures have been formed. ECD and Ovonic Battery
initially contributed technology for their 19% interest in each of these joint
ventures. In February 2002, ECD and Ovonic Battery jointly made a proportionate
$1,710,000 cash investment in the Rare Earth Ovonic joint ventures and
maintained their 19% interest in these entities. All of these joint ventures are
being accounted for using the cost method of accounting.

     Ovonic Battery has three contracts totaling $63,600,000 for supplying
equipment and technology to its Rare Earth Ovonic joint ventures in China. As of
September 30, 2004, Ovonic Battery has received payments totaling $59,484,000
under the three contracts.

Government Contract Reserve
---------------------------

     The Company's contracts with the U.S. Government and its agencies are
subject to audits by the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA). DCAA has audited
the Company's indirect rates, including its methodology of computing these
rates, for the years ended June 30, 1994 through June 30, 2003 for United Solar
Ovonic and the years ended June 30, 2000 through June 30, 2002 for ECD. In its
reports, DCAA has questioned the allowability of and the allocability of certain
costs as well as the Company's methodology for allocating independent research
and development to its indirect cost pools. In addition, DCAA has stated that
there could be penalties imposed. The Company, together with its government
contract consultants, is in the process of discussing each of these items in
detail with DCAA. Management believes that some of these DCAA assertions are
without merit. The Company has recorded a reserve of $1,682,000 and $1,847,000
at September 30 and June 30, 2004, respectively, related to these issues.

                            $1,135,369      $    8,525

     Included in creditable royalties earned and recognized as revenues in the
quarter ended September 30, 2004 is $1,125,000 related to an advance royalty
payment made by a licensee to the Company in 1993 associated with a license
agreement under which the licensee no longer has a contractual obligation to
make payments.

     There are no obligations in connection with any of the advance royalty
agreements which require the Company to incur any additional costs.

NOTE H - Product Sales, Royalties, Revenues from Product Development
Agreements and License and Other Agreements
--------------------------------------------------------------------

     The Company has product sales and business agreements with third parties
and with related parties for which royalties and revenues are included in the
consolidated statements of operations. Product sales include photovoltaic
products, revenues related to machine-building and equipment sales contracts,
nickel hydroxide and metal hydride materials. Revenues related to
machine-building and equipment sales contracts are recognized on the
percentage-of-completion method of accounting using the costs incurred to date
as a percentage of the total estimated costs. All other product sales are
recognized when the product is shipped. These products are shipped FOB shipping
point. Currently, low sales volumes for metal hydride materials and machine
building combined with high fixed costs result in losses.

      A summary of all of the Company's revenues follows.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2004 Compared to Three Months Ended
September 30, 2003
---------------------------------------------------------------------

United Solar Ovonic Segment
---------------------------

     The United Solar Ovonic segment had a decreased operating loss in 2004
versus 2003 primarily due to significantly higher revenues and the impact of
cost reductions in 2004.

     United Solar Ovonic's 2004 revenues increased by $8,152,000 resulting from
increased product sales, partially offset by lower revenues from product
development agreements. Photovoltaic sales increased by 175% to $12,976,000 for
2004 from $4,721,000 for 2003.

     United Solar Ovonic's gross margin on product sales improved to $609,000 in
2004 compared to a negative margin of $1,761,000 in 2003 because of higher sales
and lower material costs.

     United Solar Ovonic's revenues from product development agreements in the
three months ended September 30, 2004 decreased to $1,946,000 compared to
$2,218,000 in 2003 primarily due to reduced revenues from its $15.5 million Air
Force Contract to develop new solar technology to be used in space and airship
vehicles ($1,460,000 in 2004 compared to $1,947,000 in 2003).


                                       29

<PAGE>

     Revenues from product development agreements for the segment in 2004 funded
93% of United Solar Ovonic's cost of product development. Revenues from product
development agreements decreased by $272,000 and spending decreased by $86,000,
resulting in an increase of $186,000 in net cost of product development.

     The product development expenditures were used to fund the development of
new products for space and airship applications and to develop lower-cost and
higher-efficiency terrestrial products.

     United Solar Ovonic's operating, general and administrative expenses (net
of allocations) decreased by $1,118,000 in 2004 as a result of reductions
($1,281,000) in marketing activities in 2004 (versus extensive work done in 2003
to develop markets) and cost-savings initiatives, partially offset by reduced
allocation ($163,000) to cost of product development in 2004.

Energy Conversion Devices Segment
---------------------------------

     The ECD segment had a decreased operating loss in 2004 versus 2003,
primarily due to a decrease in the net cost of product development in 2004. The
ECD segment's revenues increased in 2004 from 2003, primarily due to an increase
from product development agreements.

     ECD's revenues from product development agreements increased in the three
months ended September 30, 2004 to $3,843,000 from $3,538,000 in the three
months ended September 30, 2003 due to higher revenues from Texaco Ovonic
Hydrogen Systems ($2,643,000 in 2004 versus $2,450,000 in 2003) and new
contracts with the National Institute of Standards and Technology ($591,000 in
2004 versus zero in 2003).

     Revenues from product development agreements for the segment for the three
months ended September 30, 2004 funded 52% of the ECD segment's cost of product
development. Revenues from product development agreements increased by $305,000
and spending decreased by $917,000, resulting in a decrease of $1,222,000 in net
cost of product development.

                                                     ===========    ===========

     Product development programs include work on the Ovonic Cognitive Computer
technology - a unique approach to develop computing based on the learning
capability that mimics the functionality of the human brain to combine memory
and processing in a single sub-micron device. ECD is also developing a unique
three-terminal Ovonic threshold/memory device technology to have high-speed,
high-current capabilities. Additionally, ECD continued the development of the
Ovonic regenerative fuel cell, which is a fundamentally new approach to fuel
cell technology.

     Other revenues are primarily related to personnel, facilities and
miscellaneous administrative and laboratory services provided to some of the
Company's joint ventures. Other revenues were $185,000 in the three months ended
September 30, 2004 from $167,000 in the three months ended September 30, 2003.

     ECD's operating, general and administrative expenses (net of allocations)
were $889,000 in 2004 compared to $1,121,000 in 2003. The decrease in the net
expense for 2004 was due to the impact ($371,000) of ECD's cost-containment
program, partially offset by lower allocation ($155,000) to cost of product
development and research in 2004.

Ovonic Battery Segment
----------------------

     The Ovonic Battery segment had a decreased operating loss in 2004 versus
2003, primarily resulting from a $1,116,000 increase in royalty income and a
$1,938,000 decrease in patent defense costs due to settlement of the MEI
litigation.

     The decrease in Ovonic Battery's revenues was primarily due to a decrease
in equipment sales to Rare Earth Ovonic and a reduction in revenues from product
development agreements principally related to decreased activities under the
advanced product development agreement from Cobasys, partially offset by
increased royalties and revenues from license and other agreements.

     Equipment sales revenues decreased 43% to $1,129,000 in 2004 from
$1,980,000 in 2003, primarily due to Ovonic Battery contracts with Rare Earth
Ovonic to provide battery-manufacturing equipment, the first phase of which is
in final machine acceptance, ($1,070,000 in 2004 compared to $1,730,000 in
2003). Sales of nickel hydroxide were zero in 2004 versus $235,000 in 2003 as
sales to the primary customer were affected by a temporary plant closure and an
accumulation of inventory by the customer. Despite the lower sales, the loss on
product sales improved to negative $329,000 in 2004 from negative $459,000 in
2003 due to Ovonic Battery's cost-containment program.


                                       31

<PAGE>


     Ovonic Battery's revenues from product development agreements in the three
months ended September 30, 2004 decreased to $475,000 from $1,838,000 in the
three months ended September 30, 2003, primarily due to reduced activities with
Cobasys ($475,000 in 2004 compared to $1,417,000 in 2003) as Cobasys moves into
its commercialization phase.

     Revenues from product development agreements for the Ovonic Battery segment
in the three months ended September 30, 2004 funded 18% of Ovonic Battery's cost
of product development as Ovonic Battery significantly reduced its spending on
product development. Revenues from product development agreements decreased by
$1,363,000 and spending decreased by $1,664,000, resulting in a decrease of
$301,000 in net cost of product development.

     Royalties increased 248% to $1,566,000 in the three months ended September
30, 2004 from $450,000 in the three months ended September 30, 2003 due to the
recognition of $1,125,000 related to an advance royalty payment made by a
licensee to the Company in 1993 associated with a license agreement under which
the licensee no longer has a contractual obligation to make payments.

     Revenues from license and other agreements increased to $238,000 in the
three months ended September 30, 2004 from $50,000 in the three months ended
September 30, 2003. The 2004 license fee results from the amortization over 10.5
years of the $10,000,000 payment received in the settlement of the patent
infringement disputes and counterclaims in consideration of the licenses granted
and the agreement to cross license through December 31, 2014 (see Note B of
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). The 2003 license fee resulted from
a license to Mcnair-tech Co., Ltd. of China. Revenues from license and other
agreements depend on a small number of new business arrangements, are sporadic
and vary dramatically from period to period.

     Patent expenses were incurred in 2004 and 2003 in connection with the
protection of Ovonic Battery's United States and foreign patents covering its
proprietary technologies. Total patent expenses decreased to $439,000 in the
three months ended September 30, 2004 from $2,301,000 in the three months ended
September 30, 2003, principally due to lower patent defense costs ($173,000 in
2004 versus $2,111,000 in 2003) for the protection of the Company's NiMH battery
patents and technology.

     Ovonic Battery's operating, general and administrative expenses (net of
allocations) increased due to reduced allocation ($606,000) in 2004 to cost of
revenues and product development and research.

Other Income/Expense
--------------------

     The $7,716,000 improvement in other income (net) ($7,847,000 income in 2004
compared to $131,000 income in 2003) resulted primarily from the $8,000,000
distribution received from Cobasys as a distribution from the joint venture
associated with the settlement of the patent infringement disputes and
counterclaims (see Note B of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

                            Liquidity and Capital Resources

     As of September 30, 2004, the Company had consolidated cash, cash
equivalents, and accounts receivable (including $1,385,000 of amounts due from
related parties) of $37,941,000 and had consolidated working capital of
$35,528,000.

     As part of the settlement of the patent infringement disputes and
counterclaims, ECD and Ovonic Battery received a nonrefundable $10 million
patent license fee from MEI and PEVE. In addition, Cobasys received a $20
million nonrefundable patent license fee from MEI, PEVE and Toyota, of which $4
million was placed in escrow for a next-generation NiMH battery development
project plan. Upon receipt of the funds, Cobasys made $8 million distributions
to each of Ovonic Battery and CTTV as a distribution from the joint venture (see
Note B of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

     On August 12, 2004, the Board of Directors approved management's business
restructuring plan to take full advantage of the favorable battery settlement
agreement announced on July 7, 2004 and the increasing market interest in solar
energy systems and hybrid electric vehicles. Our strategy is to transition from
a highly successful research-oriented company to the next phase of development,
which is to commercialize the products we have developed and concentrate on
growing sales revenues and equity value in our core commercial businesses with
the goal of moving the Company into a position of having sustained profitability
by July 2006.

     The restructuring will increase product revenues while enabling us to carry
out major cost-reduction measures, including significant reductions in the
workforce to right size activities to support our core commercial businesses. We
will manage a reduced portfolio of advanced product development activities and a
leaner R&D team to grow future businesses.

     The core commercial businesses on which the Company is focusing are United
Solar Ovonic, Cobasys and Ovonyx.

     The Company expects the amount of cash to be received under existing
product development agreements in the year ending June 30, 2005 to decrease to
approximately $13,332,000, compared to $36,678,000 received in the year ended
June 30, 2004, substantially due to reduced funding to be received in the year
ending June 30, 2005 from ChevronTexaco.

     Our backlog of orders as of September 30, 2004 for machine-building and
equipment sales contracts, photovoltaic products and metal hydride materials is
$5,488,000 compared to a backlog of $11,325,000 at September 30, 2003. The
decrease in 2004 was due to a reduction in the backlog for the Rare Earth
Ovonic project. In fiscal 2005, we expect to recognize substantially all of
these revenues.

     Certain of the Company's product development and product purchase
agreements contain provisions allowing for the termination of such agreements
for, among other things, failure of the Company to meet agreement milestones or
for breach of material contractual provisions. Generally, the termination
provisions allow for the Company to recover any costs incurred through the
termination date.

     As of September 30, 2004, the Company had $24,043,000 consolidated cash and
cash equivalents ($1,000,000 of which was restricted) consisting of money market
funds. It is the Company's policy that investments (including cash equivalents)
shall be rated "A" or higher by Moody's or Standard and Poor's, no single
investment (excluding cash equivalents) shall represent more than 10% of the
portfolio and at least 20% of the total portfolio shall have maturities of 90
days or less.

     During the three months ended September 30, 2004, $10,707,000 of cash was
generated from operations. The difference between the net income of $1,348,000
and the net cash generated from operations was principally due to the deferred
nonrefundable patent license fee received from the conclusion of the patent
litigation with MEI ($9,762,000) and noncash costs (principally depreciation,
$2,036,000) partially offset by reductions in nonrefundable advance royalties
($1,135,000) and deferred revenues under business agreements ($931,000) (see
Notes A, B and G of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).

     The Company spent $404,000 on property, plant and equipment that was placed
in service during the three months ended September 30, 2004. In total, the
Company expects to spend $2,000,000 for capital expenditures in fiscal 2005,
primarily for manufacturing equipment at United Solar Ovonic and for leasehold
improvements to the Company's facilities.

     As part of its long-standing strategy, the Company has made investments in
its technologies, which have resulted in enabling intellectual property and
products. The technology emerging from these investments has enabled the Company
to finance its operations and growth through strategic alliances (joint ventures
and license agreements) with third parties who can provide financial resources
and marketing expertise for the Company's technologies and products.

     The resultant strategic alliances and agreements with major companies have
accelerated the commercialization and development of the Company's products and
technologies. While the Company's business partners have funded most of its
product development and commercialization activities, additional sources of cash
are required to sustain the Company's operations. The Company expects to
continue to use significant cash to fund its operations in the coming year and
is engaged in a number of activities to raise capital, grow revenues and reduce
costs.

     Management believes that funds generated from operations; new business
agreements; equity financing, including the exercise of Common Stock purchase
warrants and exercise of stock options; debt financings; new government
contracts and the cost-containment initiatives, together with existing cash and
cash equivalents, will be adequate to support the Company's operations for the
coming year. However, the amount and timing of such activities are uncertain.
Accordingly, no assurances can be given as to the timing or success of the
aforementioned plans, negotiations, discussions and programs. The report of the
independent registered public accounting firm states that "the Company's
recurring losses from operations and need for additional working capital raise
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern." The Company
has recurring losses from operations and is actively engaged in discussions to
obtain the needed additional working capital.

Item 3.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
------    ----------------------------------------------------------

     The following discussion about our exposure to market risk of financial
instruments contains forward-looking statements. Actual results may differ
materially from those described.

     Our holdings of financial instruments are comprised of debt securities and
time deposits. All such instruments are classified as securities available for
sale. We do not invest in portfolio equity securities, or commodities, or use
financial derivatives for trading purposes. Our debt security portfolio
represents funds held temporarily, pending use in our business and operations.
The Company had $23,456,000 and $13,074,000 of these investments (including cash
equivalents) on September 30, 2004 and June 30, 2004, respectively. On September
30 and June 30, 2004, the investments were all maturing on a daily basis. It is
the Company's policy that investments (including cash equivalents) shall be
rated "A" or higher by Moody's or Standard and Poor's, no single investment
(excluding cash equivalents) shall represent more than 10% of the portfolio and
at least 20% of the total portfolio shall have maturities of 90 days or less.
Our market risk primarily relates to the risks of changes in the credit quality
of issuers. As of September 30, 2004, the risk associated with changes in
interest rates is minimal due to the short average maturity of the investments.

Item 4.   Controls and Procedures
------    -----------------------

     In Item 9A, Controls and Procedures of the Company's Form 10-K for the year
ended June 30, 2004, the following four significant deficiencies were identified
pursuant to standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (PCAOB):

   1.  The Company has insufficient documentation of its policies and procedures
       around internal controls to ensure that the execution of activities and
       controls are consistent with management's objectives.

   2.  The Company does not currently have monitoring controls in place to
       determine whether controls that have been implemented by management,
       specifically in the financial reporting function, are actually operating
       consistently with management's objectives.


                                       35

<PAGE>


   3.  The Company has areas where employees are performing processes or
       controls that are incompatible with their functions. Segregation of
       duties issues were identified in the Accounts Receivable, Accounts
       Payable, Financial Reporting, Payroll, and Treasury functions.

   4.  The Company has certain weaknesses in the security of data within the
       Company's information systems. These include issues regarding security
       event logs and activity reports, assignment of administrator rights,
       segregation of duties, and access to data and applications.

     The Company's independent registered public accounting firm, Grant Thornton
LLP, has indicated that each of the above significant deficiencies constitutes
a material weakness in our internal controls pursuant to standards established
by the PCAOB.

     As part of the Company's effort to ensure compliance with provisions of
Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404, the Company has devised a plan and committed the
required resources to address and remediate these material weaknesses prior to
our attestation of control effectiveness as of June 30, 2005. This has included
the recent retention of a top-tier independent registered public accounting firm
to assist in the project direction, execution and external reporting.

     As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was
carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's
management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,
of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934). Based upon that evaluation, which considered the material weaknesses
mentioned above, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
concluded that the operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were
effective for gathering, analyzing and disclosing information required to be
disclosed in connection with the Company's filing of its Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2004. No significant changes were
made in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly
affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.
