MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following information contains certain forward looking statements that anticipate future trends or events. These statements are based on certain assumptions that may prove to be erroneous and are subject to certain risks including but not limited to the risks of increased competition in the Company's industry and other risks detailed in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings. Accordingly, actual results may differ, possibly materially, from the predictions contained herein. During the three months ended Sept 30th 2002 the Company recorded two significant events. On July 25th the Company closed a private placement of 1,428,600 shares at price of $3.50 per share for gross proceeds of $5,000,100.00 and net proceeds of $4,800,100.00. As a result of this financing and exercise of options during the period, a net total of $5,880,610.00 in cash was provided by financing activities. On Sept 1st 2002, the Company signed a distribution agreement with Ondeo Nalco Company of Naperville IL. The agreement assigns Ondeo Nalco exclusive sales rights for Flexible Solutions' new product Water$avr in the North American municipal market and in the world mining markets ex India and Pakistan. The term of the agreement is 5 years, and provides for sales totaling 25 million dollars over the term of the agreement. A further provision in the distribution agreement granted one million options at $4.25 and one million options at $5.50 to Ondeo Nalco. These options have been recorded as consultant expenses in the quarter at a cost of $2,704,000.00. If the options are exercised, the Company will receive $9,750,000 in cash to our treasury as the exercise price. The non-cash expense related to these options account for all but $.01 of the loss recorded in the quarter and non-cash expenses represent all of the losses recorded in the 9 months ended Sept 30th 2002. For the three months ended Sept. 30th 2002, the Company experienced a net after tax loss of $2,806,010 (see option expensing discussion above) as compared to a net after tax loss of $28,560 for the three months ended Sept. 30th 2001. As in the quarter ending Sept. 30th 2001, the end of the Northeastern USA pool season reduces demand for our products in the usual cyclical manner. This year the sales season in the US Northeast and Eastern Canada was severely affected by unseasonably cold weather leading to a late start followed by extremely hot weather requiring less of our products and resulting in very low production requirements in 3rd quarter and revenue of $55,257 compared to $148,177 in the year earlier quarter. In addition, the Company increased expenditures in the areas of WATER$AVR sales and marketing and production equipment development. Finally, the Company did better at producing the correct amount of product in Q-1 and Q-2 2002 as a percentage of annual sales and therefore did not have to carry high production rates as far into Q-3 2002 as was the case in Q-3 2001 and our swimming pool product distributor is carrying a much lower quantity of inventory as of Sept 30 2002 compared to Sept 30 2003. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Reference is made to Item 2, "Management's Discussion and Analysis" included in the Company's registration statement on Form 10-SB for the year ended December 31st 1999, as amended, and the Company's 10K-SB for the years ended Dec. 31st 2000 and 2001 on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The following analysis and discussion pertains to the Company's results of operations for the three month and nine month periods ended Sept. 30th 2002, compared to the results of operations for the three month and nine month periods ended Sept. 30th 2001, and to changes in the Company's financial condition from December 31st 2001 to Sept. 30th 2002. THREE MONTHS ENDED Sept. 30th 2002 and 2001 For the third quarter of the current fiscal year ending Sept. 30th 2002, sales were $55,257 compared to $148,177 for the same quarter of the previous year. The decrease in sales was caused by poor weather in the beginning of the Northeast pool season followed by extremely hot weather both of which reduced the need for our products. Operating expenses were $2,865,049 for the third quarter, up from $101,552 for the third quarter of last year. This is as a result of a non-cash expense ($2,704,000) to account for options granted to Ondeo Nalco Company, increased spending on sales and marketing for Water$avr and development of advanced production machinery . The largest real increases were in the areas of office and factory rent (33,686) and professional fees ($37,478). The net loss for the quarter was $2,806,010 a huge increase from third quarter last year when the net loss was $28,560. The increased loss was almost all related to non-cash option expenses as the cash flow statement shows only $61,399 in cash consumed by operations. Cost of sales increased to 99% from 48% as a result of lower sales without concurrent reduction in costs. The earnings per share was ($0.25) for the three months ended Sept. 30th 2002 compared to $0.00 for the three months ended Sept. 30th 2001. NINE MONTHS ENDED Sept. 30th 2002 and 2001 Sales in the nine months ended Sept. 30th 2002 were $1,089,164 compared to $1,307,649 for the nine months ended Sept. 30th 2001. The reduction was a result of the poor season in the Northeast of the US and Eastern Canada. Operating expenses for the Company were $3,381,707 for the nine months ended Sept. 30th 2002 up from $290,105 for the nine months ended Sept. 30th 2001. The increase in operating expenses were as a result of increases in sales and marketing costs for Water$avr and more than $3 million in non-cash expenses to account for option grants. The net income for the nine months ended Sept. 30th 2002 was ($2,871,363) compared to a net income of $232,249 for the nine months ended Sept. 30th 2001. The decrease in income was due to the decrease in sales compared to the year earlier period and the non-cash accounting entry to expense options. The earnings per share was ($0.27) for the nine month period ended Sept. 30th 2002 compared to ($0.03) for the nine month period ended Sept. 30th 2001. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company sold 400,000 shares at a price of $2.50 per share in the second quarter for net proceeds of $.95 million and 1,428,600 shares at $3.50 per share for net proceeds of $4.8 million in the 3rd quarter. This in addition to other paid up capital resulted in cash on hand of $5,939,446. As of Sept. 30th 2002 the Company had working capital of $6,279,429 which represented an increase of $5,782,868 as compared to the working capital of Dec 31st 2001. The increase was a result of the financings concluded during the 9 months ended Sept 30th 2002. The Company has no external sources of liquidity in the form of credit lines from banks. Management believes that its available cash will be sufficient to fund the Company's working capital requirements through December 31st 2003. Management further believes that available cash will be sufficient to implement the Company's expansion plans. No investment banking agreements are in place and there is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise capital in the future should that become necessary. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS: The Company does not have any derivative financial instruments as of Sept. 30th 2001. However, the Company is exposed to interest rate risk. The Company's interest income and expense are most sensitive to changes in the general level of U.S. and Canadian interest rates. In this regard, changes in U.S. and Canadian interest rates affect the interest paid on the Company's cash equivalents as well as the interest paid on debt. FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK The Company operates primarily in Canada. Therefore, the Company's business and financial condition is sensitive to currency exchange rates or any other restriction imposed on its currency. Part II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal proceedings - None Item 2. Changes in Securities - 1,428,600 restricted shares were issued at $3.50 per share for gross proceeds of $5,000,100 and net proceeds of $4,800,100. 114,000 shares were issued for options exercised during the quarter. Proceeds To the Company were $33,500. 1 million options at a strike price of $4.25 and a term of 5 years were issued to a consultant. 1 million options at a strike price of $5.50 and a term of 5 years were issued to a consultant.

Other Information - None Item 6.(a) Exhibit 27 - Financial Data Schedule Item 6.(b) Reports on Form 8-K July 25th 2002 Oct 2nd 2002 Item 14. Controls and procedures The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based closely on the definition of "disclosure controls and procedures" in Rule 13a-14(c). In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Within 90 days prior to the date of this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and the Company's Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective. There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect the internal controls subsequent to the date the Company completed its evaluation.
