RELIABILITY INCORPORATED

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



September 30, 2004



1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES



Basis of presentation



The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. Operating results for the interim period ended September 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2004.



The consolidated financial statements include the financial transactions and accounts of the
Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.



The balance sheet at December 31, 2003 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes
required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2003.



Accounting Estimates



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



Income Taxes



Deferred income taxes are provided under the liability method and reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated
financial statements. The Company establishes valuation allowances when the realization of specific deferred tax assets are subject to significant uncertainty.



For the nine month period ended September 30, 2004, the Company recorded no tax benefits on its operating loss, as the loss will have to be carried forward and
realization of any benefit is uncertain. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2003, the offsetting current and deferred provision amounts result from additional deductions claimed on the Companys 2002 federal tax return.

Inventories are presented net of
reserves for excess and obsolete inventories of $535,000 and $439,000 at September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.



Investments in Marketable Equity and Debt Securities



All investments are classified as held to maturity or available-for-sale securities under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115,
Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. Management determines the appropriate classification of its investments in equity and debt securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such determinations at each
balance sheet date.



Marketable equity securities are classified as
available-for-sale and are carried at their fair value on the balance sheet, with unrealized gains and losses, net of applicable income taxes of $3,000 and $14,000 at September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, reported as a separate
component of stockholders equity. Marketable equity securities are stated at market value, as determined by the most recently published trade price of the securities at the balance sheet date.



The following table summarizes the Companys investment in securities (in thousands) at
the dates indicated:



|                                                       |  |                   |     |   |                  |   |

September 30, 2004



2. LIQUIDITY



Beginning in 2001, the Company has sustained significant negative
financial trends, including substantial decreases in revenues, net income, backlog and cash flows from operating activities. Key customers have continued to reduce expenditures for the Companys products and services, and such trends may
continue in the near term. During this period, the Company has continually taken steps to adjust its cost structure to the decreased level of business activity.



Despite the steps taken to reduce the Companys cost structure, its operations continue to consume large amounts of the Companys cash reserves. As of
September 30, 2004, the Companys working capital was $2.3 million, of which $1.5 million was cash and cash equivalents. The Company has no debt. Changes in the Companys financial condition and liquidity since December 31, 2003 are
generally attributable to the net loss incurred in the nine months ended September 30, 2004.



The Company will require additional liquidity to sustain operations through 2005. The Company is presently negotiating with an asset-based lender for a temporary credit facility to be secured by the Houston
headquarters building. Management believes that the expected proceeds of this credit facility, along with proceeds from the sale of the Houston building, idle North Carolina property and investment securities will provide sufficient resources to
fund its operations; however, there can be no assurances that such transactions can be consummated in a timely manner or in amounts sufficient to fund any continuing operating deficits. For further information, refer to the financial statements and
footnotes thereto included in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Options to purchase an average of
797,000 and 1,045,000 shares of common stock of the Company were excluded from the computation of the diluted (loss) per share during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, as inclusion of these options in the calculations
would have been anti-dilutive.



5. COMPREHENSIVE LOSS

6. OTHER INCOME



Other income includes rental income on idle real estate for all periods
presented, and in 2003, also includes a $155,000 gain on the sale of the building formerly occupied by the Companys Costa Rica subsidiary (first quarter) and a $30,000 gain on the sale of marketable securities (second quarter).



7. STOCK OPTION PLAN



The Company has a stock option plan that provides for the grant of options to key employees and directors of the Company. The term and
vesting of each option is determined by the Board of Directors. The Company accounts for stock options using the intrinsic value based method prescribed by APB 25. Had the Company elected to account for stock options using the fair value method
described in SFAS No. 123, the Companys reported net loss would have increased to the amounts shown below (in thousands, except share data):

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



September 30, 2004



8. ASSET IMPAIRMENT AND
RESTRUCTURING COSTS



Due to the continued lack of sales of the Ezy-Load
product, the Company considered it necessary to perform an impairment review of the associated goodwill during the quarter ended September 30, 2004. As a result of this review an impairment charge of $673,000 was recorded. The Company plans to
continue to market this product and make design changes in an attempt to lower its manufacturing cost. During the fourth quarter, the Company will also begin negotiations to revise the amount and terms of the remaining contingent purchase price
payments, of which the next scheduled payment is due January 29, 2005. In the event the Company is not able to reach a satisfactory agreement with the seller, the Company may cease manufacturing and marketing the Ezy-Load product.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations



FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS



This Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations and other parts of this report contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, as well as current expectations and assumptions. From time to time, the Company may publish forward-looking statements, including
those that are contained in this report, relating to such matters as anticipated financial performance, business prospects, technological developments, new products, research and development activities and similar matters. The Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements. In order to comply with the terms of the safe harbor, the Company notes that a variety of factors could cause the Companys actual results and experience to
differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the Companys forward-looking statements. The risks and uncertainties that may affect the operations, performance, development and results of the Companys
business include, but are not limited to, the ability to obtain temporary financing secured by real estate, and ultimately to sell real estate holdings that will generate sufficient liquidity to allow the Company to continue operations through 2005,
adverse changes in the global economy, sudden decreases in the demand for electronic products and semiconductors, market acceptance of the Companys products and services, the impact of competition, delays in product development schedules,
delays due to technical difficulties related to developing and implementing technology, delays in delivery schedules, the ability to attract and maintain sufficient levels of people with specific technical talents, future results related to
investments and acquisitions, changes in demand for the Companys products and services and the Companys customers products and services, the impact of entering a new line of business (Automotive) with different marketing strategies
and channels and a different customer base from the Companys historical business lines, and the ultimate acceptance by the market of this new product. The Companys actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these
forward-looking statements, including those set forth elsewhere in this report. The Company assumes no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements.



CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND COMMENTS RELATED TO OPERATIONS



The Company has defined a critical accounting policy as one that is both important to the portrayal of the Companys financial condition and results of operations
and requires the management of the Company to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments. Estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be perceived with certainty. The Company bases its estimates on historical
experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments. These estimates may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as
additional information is obtained and as the Companys operating environment changes. There have been no material changes or developments in the Companys evaluation of the accounting estimates and the underlying assumptions or
methodologies that it believes to be Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates as disclosed in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



September 30, 2004



Managements Discussion included in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003
includes discussion of various factors related to the decline in the Companys revenues and items related to the Companys results of operations, liquidity and markets. There have been no significant changes in most of the factors
discussed in the Form 10-K and many of the items discussed in the Form 10-K are relevant to 2004 operations; thus the reader of this report should read Managements Discussion included in Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.



LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES



Beginning in 2001, the Company has sustained significant negative financial trends,
including substantial decreases in revenues, net income, backlog and cash flows from operating activities. Key customers have continued to reduce expenditures for the Companys products and services and such trends may continue in the near
term. During this period, the Company has continually taken steps to adjust its cost structure to the decreased level of business activity.



Despite the steps taken to reduce the Companys cost structure, its operations continue to consume large amounts of the Companys cash reserves. As of September
30, 2004, the Companys working capital was $2.3 million, of which $1.5 million was cash and cash equivalents. The Company has no debt. Changes in the Companys financial condition and liquidity since December 31, 2003 are generally
attributable to the net loss incurred in the six months ended June 30, 2004.



The Company will require additional liquidity to sustain operations through 2005. The Company is presently negotiating with an asset-based lender for a temporary credit facility to be secured by the Houston headquarters building. Management
believes that the expected proceeds of this credit facility, along with proceeds from the sale of the Houston building, idle North Carolina property and investment securities will provide sufficient resources to fund its operations; however, there
can be no assurances that such transactions can be consummated in a timely manner or in amounts sufficient to fund any continuing operating deficits. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.



Net cash used by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 was $2.8 million compared to $.3 million in the comparable period of 2003. Of the $2.5 million difference in cash flow from operations between periods, $3.7
million is due to a tax refund received on May 2003 and changes in operating assets and liabilities, offset by a $.8 million larger net loss incurred in the prior year period and the impact of the $.7 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge in
2004.



Net cash used by investment activities during the first nine months of
2004 was $84,000, compared to $215,000 generated by investment activities in 2003. The 2004 amount consisted primarily of a $75,000 contingent installment payment made related to the acquisition of the Ezy-Load product line. The 2003 amount includes
$825,000 in proceeds from the sale of a building and $58,000 from the sale of investment securities, offset by $514,000 paid in connection with the acquisition of the Ezy-Load product line and $154,000 in capital expenditures.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



September 30, 2004



RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



Nine months ended September 30, 2004 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2003.



Revenues. Revenues for the first nine months of 2004 were $2,484,000, compared
to $1,345,000 in the comparable period in 2003. Revenues increased in each of the Companys three traditional business segments as follows (the Automotive segment was not created until the third quarter of 2003): Testing Products 40%, Services
112% and Power Sources 76%.



Revenues in the Testing Products segment increased
by $143,000 over the comparable 2003 period. The increase is primarily attributed to increased domestic revenues from systems upgrades and refurbishment ($88,000), increased parts sales ($17,000) and maintenance and training revenues ($48,000) in
Asian markets.



Revenues in the Service segment increased by $650,000 over the
2003 period. Burn-in and Testing revenues accounted for the increase as a result of a 34% increase in units processed and a 67% increase in average selling prices due to changes in product mix and increased processing times.



Revenues in the Power Sources segment increased by $307,000 over the 2003 period. The
increase is a result of a 39% increase in units shipped coupled with a 26% increase in average selling prices. Approximately 31% of the revenue increase resulted from increased demand for mature products for the networking and
telecommunications industries. The majority of the remainder of the increase is a result of sales of products that have been in development over the past two years that carry higher average selling prices than other product lines.



Revenues in the Automotive segment continue to be disappointing as the Company attempts
different marketing strategies, implements design changes and seeks alternate sources of raw materials to drive down product cost. Late in the second quarter the Company expanded its distribution channel beyond direct sales by placing a
demonstration unit at a local truck aftermarket outfitter. The Company plans to add other dealers in southeast Texas. During the third quarter, the Company made its initial shipments of the Ezy-Load product outside the Houston area for customers to
self-install. Despite significant marketing efforts, sales for the first nine months of 2004 were only $39,000.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

September 30, 2004



Costs and Expenses. The loss from operations in the nine-month period ended
September 30, 2004 was $3,933,000, compared to $5,151,000 in the comparable 2003 period. Of the $1,218,000 improvement, $1,058,000 is due to margin improvement resulting from higher revenues and absorption of fixed overhead costs; $591,000 is due to
lower research and development costs; $237,000 is due to severance costs associated with the April 2003 headcount reduction; and $5,000 is due to lower marketing, general and administrative expenses which resulted from the previously-mentioned
headcount reductions, offset by $196,000 in marketing expenses for the Ezy-Load product line and a $673,000 charge for goodwill impairment.



Interest and Other Income. The decline in interest income for the nine month period ended September 30, 2004 is due to a lower amount of investable funds.
Other income declined by $381,000 from the year earlier period, which included a $155,000 gain on the sale of a building, $30,000 of gains on sales of marketable securities and $196,000 of rental income for excess space at the Houston facility for
which the lease expired in August 2003.



Three months ended September 30,
2004 compared to three months ended September 30, 2003



Revenues. Revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2004 were $938,000, compared to $478,000 in the comparable period of 2003. Revenues increased in each business segment compared to the prior year and consolidated revenues
have increased sequentially for six consecutive quarters. Revenue in the Testing Products segment increased by $68,000, primarily due to higher revenues from preventive maintenance services and equipment refurbishment in the U.S. Revenues in the
Services segment increased by $310,000 (187%) as units processed more than doubled and average selling prices increased by 46%.



Revenues in the Power Sources segment increased by $65,000 (35%) as a result of an 11% increase in units shipped and a 22% increase in average selling price.



The discussion of the Automotive segment revenues presented above for the nine month
period ended September 30 is applicable to the quarterly period as well.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



September 30, 2004



Cost and Expenses.The loss from operations for the quarter ended September 30,
2004 was $1,680,000, compared to an operating loss of $1,600,000 for the comparable period in 2003. The increase in the operating loss of $80,000 is attributable to the goodwill impairment charge of $673,000 recorded in September 2004 and a $36,000
increase in marketing, general and administrative costs, offset by $489,000 in margin improvement and a decrease in research and development costs of $141,000. The increase in marketing, general and administrative expenses is due to expenses
associated with the Ezy-Load Division and increased medical insurance premiums, offset by the impact of the work force reductions in October 2003. The improvement in gross margin is due to the higher level of revenues. Gross margin for the quarter
was $58,000, the second consecutive quarter the Company has achieved a positive gross margin. The decrease in research and development costs is due to the previously mentioned work force reductions



Interest and Other Income. The decline in interest income for the period is due
to a lower level of investable funds. Other income declined by $49,000, as the 2003 period included rental income for excess space at the Houston facility for which the lease expired in August 2003.



Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure of Market Risk.



There have been no material changes in the market risk disclosures reported in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K filed for the year ended December 31, 2003. The reader is directed to the Companys
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.



Item 4. 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 Chief Financial Officer, of the
effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-5 under the Securities Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer had concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective.



There have been no significant changes in the Companys internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of the evaluation described in the preceding
paragraph.
