ITEM 1.  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

GENERAL

Spectrum Laboratories, Inc. (the "Company" or "Spectrum") a Delaware Corporation
was originally incorporated under the laws of the state of California in June
1980 as Immutron, Inc. In November 1982 the Company changed its name to Spectrum
Laboratories, Inc. The Company reincorporated in Delaware in September 1998. The
Company's principal executive offices are located at 18617 Broadwick Street,
Rancho Dominguez, California 90220.

On March 21, 2005, the Company filed a Preliminary Information Statement with
the Securities and Exchange Commission reporting that the Company decided to
amend its Certificate of Incorporation to effectuate a 1 to 25,000 reverse stock
split. As a result of the reverse stock split, the Company will have only three
stockholders. The Company's common stock will cease to be listed on the OTC
Bulletin Board after the reverse split, and the Company will cease to file
periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The reverse stock
split was unanimously by the Board of Directors at a meeting on October 6, 2004
and by holders of 98.4% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock by written
consent pursuant to the Delaware General Business Law. The Company plans to
amend its certificate of incorporation once it has received clearance by the SEC
and has mailed a Definitive Information Statement to its shareholders.

PRODUCT GROUPS

The Company consists of three product groups, Bioprocessing, scaled from
laboratory bench top to manufacturing of diagnostics and pharmaceuticals,
Original Equipment Manufacturing ("OEM") and Operating Room Disposables which
define the company's approach to serving customers.

The Bioprocessing unit sells membranes, membrane devices and other products used
by customers at universities, government institutions, non-profit organizations,
pharmaceutical, diagnostic and biotechnology companies. These products are
originally used for life science research and high technology applications with
some applications growing into GMP ("Good Manufacturing Practices") for
diagnostics and pharmaceuticals.

The Original Equipment Manufacturing (OEM) unit supplies separations devices to
companies developing proprietary products for Cell Therapy, Cell Expansion,
Implants and Molecular/ Micro filtration for in vivo and ex-vivo applications.


                                       3
<PAGE>

The Disposable Operating Room unit sells orthopedic and arthroscopic drapes,
sterile microscope covers, tissue carriers and other disposables to hospital and
clinic operating rooms.

STATUS OF PRODUCTS

Due to continuing developments in life science, high technology and other
scientific research, there can be no assurance of a continuing market for each
of the Company's products; however, through on going reviews of technical
literature, along with regular communications with customers, the Company's goal
is to keep abreast of the trends in separations techniques. This information
along with its own research technology, determines the Company's development of
improved and new products.

Customers and potential customers, wherever located, are encouraged to
communicate by the Company's toll free 800 telephone numbers or via the
Company's website on (spectrumlabs.com) for technical staff consultation or for
placing orders. Shipments are made five days a week from four locations. The
Company strives to ship its products to customers in a timely and acceptable
fashion. The Company maintains inventory levels which, it believes to be
appropriate to meet its current demands.

1-2. SALES & DISTRIBUTION

During 2004, approximately 2,200 products were sold to over 1,000 direct user
accounts and over 200 dealer accounts with end users including hospitals,
universities, pharmaceutical, industrial, diagnostics and biotechnology
companies and commercial laboratories as well as non-profit organizations and
governmental institutions. Small orders in laboratory quantities averaging
approximately $250 accounted for less than 5% of the Company's sales. The
Company's orders received in excess of $5,000 accounted for over 50% of the
sales in 2004.

1-3.  PRODUCTION & PURCHASING

The Company has a membrane production facility in Rancho Dominguez, Operating
Room Disposables are produced in Dallas and Chromatography instruments and
columns are produced in Houston.

The Company manufactures greater than 90% of its products, which represented
over 95% of the sales in 2004. Products not manufactured by the Company are
purchased to its specifications from numerous manufacturing sources.

None of the Company suppliers accounted for more than 10% of the Company
purchases in 2004. The Company has generally been able to obtain adequate
supplies of products and materials to meet its needs. No assurance can be given
that additional or other shortages not will occur in the future.

Whether a product is produced by the Company or purchased from outside
suppliers, it is subjected to quality control procedures, including the
verification of porosity and with certain products, the complete validation for
GMP, FDA, CE and ISO 2001 compliance, prior to final packaging. Quality control
is performed by a staff of technicians utilizing calibrated equipment.

1-4. PATENTS, TRADEMARKS & LICENSES

The Company holds approximately 47 granted or pending patents and has 3
licensing agreements. The Company's significant trademarks are brand names
KrosFlo, SpectraPor, Cellmax and SpectraChrom. The brands are marketed
worldwide. Their related registered logos, and the significant trademarks, which
have various expiration dates, are expected to be renewed indefinitely.

The Company is aware of the desirability for patent and trademark protection for
its products. The Company believes other than its brand names no single patent,
license, trademark (or related group of patents and licenses, or trademarks) is
material in relation to its business as a whole.


                                       4
<PAGE>

In addition to patents, the Company relies on trade secrets and proprietary
know-how. The Company seeks protection of these trade secrets and proprietary
know-how, in part through confidentiality and proprietary information
agreements. The Company makes efforts to require its employees, directors,
consultants and advisors, outside scientific collaborators and sponsored
researchers, other advisors and other individuals and entities to execute
confidentiality agreements upon the start of employment, consulting or other
contractual relationships with the Company. These agreements provide that all
confidential information developed or made known to the individual or entity
during the course of the relationship is to be kept confidential and not
disclosed to third parties except in specific circumstances. In the case of
employees and some other parties, the agreements provide that all inventions
conceived by the individual will be the Company's exclusive property. These
agreements may not provide meaningful protection for or adequate remedies to
protect the Company's technology in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure
of information. Furthermore, the Company's trade secrets may otherwise become
known to, or be independently developed by, its competitors.

1-5. DEPENDENCE ON A SINGLE CUSTOMER OR PRODUCT

The Company does not believe that its business would be adversely affected by
the loss of any individual customer or small group of customers. During the 2004
and 2003 fiscal years, two distributors individually accounted for 10% or more
of the Company's total sales which were approximately 13% and 12%, respectively
in fiscal 2004 while both distributors each accounted for approximately 13% of
sales in fiscal 2003. No individual product accounted for 10% or more of sales
in either fiscal 2004 or 2003.

1-6. BACKLOG

As of December 25, 2004 the Company had a current backlog of open orders of
approximately $503,000 and $753,000 in orders from customers specifically
requesting items that were to be shipped during fiscal 2005.

1-7. COMPETITION

Substantial competition exists in all of the Company's marketing and production
areas.

In all product areas the Company competes primarily on the basis of customer
service, products quality and price. The Company markets its products through
its three business units; Bioprocessing, OEM and Operating Room Disposables. The
Company has over 10,000 catalogs in the marketplace in 2004 for the Spectrum
brands with customers and potential customers throughout the world. These
catalogs are supplemented with advertisements in chemical and other scientific
journals, though the use of mailing of special products brochures, personal
visits by sales and technical representatives with customers and through its web
site. The Company competes with several medium and small companies in each of
its product categories. The Company also competes with several large companies
such as Pall and Millipore. These competitors have greater financial resources,
larger sales and marketing and product development departments, stronger name
recognition, longer operating histories and benefit from greater economies of
scale. These factors, among others, may enable our competitors to market their
products at lower prices or on terms more advantageous to customers than those
we could offer for our competitive products. These competitors may have a
greater ability to procure product licenses, as well as to market and distribute
products. Competition may result in price reductions, reduced gross margins and
loss of market share, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition and results of operations.

1-8. GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS

The Company engages principally in the business of selling products, which are
not foods or food additives, drugs or cosmetics within the meaning of the
federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, as amended (the "FDC Act").

The Company believes that it is in compliance in all material respects with
federal, state and local regulations relating to the manufacture, sale and
distribution of its products. The following are brief summaries of some of the
federal law and regulations which may have an impact on the Company's business.
These summaries are only illustrative of the extensive regulatory requirements
of the federal, state and local governments and are not intended to provide the
specific details of each law or regulation.


                                       5
<PAGE>

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the California Food and Drug Bureau
(CFDB) regulate the manufacture and quality control procedures of certain of the
Company's products. Compliance with FDA and CFDB regulations is a significant
expense but the Company believes that such expenses are costs of doing business
in the industry and that the Company's expenses are similar to those of other
companies in the business.

The Clean Air Act (CAA), as amended, and the regulations promulgated there
under, regulates the emission of harmful pollutants into the waters of the
United States. Federal or state regulatory agencies may require companies to
acquire permits, perform monitoring and install control equipment for certain
pollutants.

The Clean Water Act (CWA), as amended, and the regulations promulgated there
under, regulate the discharge of harmful pollutants into the waters of the
United States. Federal or state regulatory agencies may require companies to
acquire permits, perform monitoring and treat waste water before discharge to
the waters of the Unites States or a Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW).

The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (OSHA), including the Hazard
Communication Standard ("right to Know"), and the regulations promulgated there
under, require the labeling of hazard substance containers, the supplying of
Material Safety Data Sheets ("MSDS") on hazards products to customers and
hazards substances to which an employee may be exposed in the workplace, the
training of employees in the handling of hazardous substances and the use of the
MSDS, along with other health and safety programs.

1-9.  RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

The Company incurred research and product development expenses of approximately
$843,000 in 2004 and $868,000 in 2003. Research and product development
functions are particularly important for the Company's future growth.

1-10.  NUMBER OF PERSONS EMPLOYED

The Company had 116 employees as of December 25, 2004 of which 4 were part time
employees. The total number employed in the United States was 113 with the
remaining 3 employed by the Company's foreign subsidiary. The Company's
employees and consultants have degrees in chemistry, biotechnology, engineering
or other scientific disciplines, including approximately 6 with their doctorate
degree.

1-11. FINANCIAL INFORMATION ABOUT GEOGRAPHIC AREAS

In the years ended December 25, 2004, approximately 25% of the Company's sales
were customers outside the United States. The sales were made directly by the
Company, through distributors and by a subsidiary located in the Netherlands.

For sales with final destinations in an international market, the Company uses
Extraterritorial Income Exclusion (EIE), which provides certain Federal income
tax advantages. The effect of the tax rules governing the EIE is to lower the
effective Federal income tax rate on export income. The EIE resulting from the
Company's U.S. export sales replaced the benefit previously provided by the
Company's Foreign Corporation (FSC).

The Company's international operations and United States export sales are
subject to certain risks such as changes in the legal and regulatory policies of
foreign jurisdictions, local political and economic developments, currency
fluctuations, exchange controls, changes in tariff restrictions, royalty and tax
increases, export and import restrictions and restrictive regulations of foreign
governments, among other factors inherent in these operations. The Company is
unable to predict the extent to which its business may be affected in the future
by these matters.

ITEM 2.    DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

The Company's executive offices are located at 18617 Broadwick Street, Rancho
Dominguez, California. All facilities used by the Company are leased, in good
condition and are adequate for the Company's present operating requirements.
Production and administrative facilities are located in California and Texas.


                                       6
<PAGE>

The Company has a sales and distribution facility in The Netherlands. The
Company expects to continue to expand its production and distribution
capabilities in selected markets. The Company now uses about 30% of its
manufacturing capacity and expects to increase the utilization of its facilities
in the future. The Company anticipates it will be extending its lease on its
principal facility upon its current termination date of July 2005.

ITEM 6     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 the financial position and operating results during
the periods included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, as
well as information relating to the current plans of the Company and its
majority-owned subsidiaries, SLI Acquisition Corp. (SLIAC), Spectrum Europe B.V.
(Spectrum B.V.) and Spectrum Chromatography, Inc. (Chromatography).

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Determining Impairment on Long-lived Assets - The Company recognizes impairment
losses for long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment
are present and the future undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover
the assets' carrying amount. Management believes there has been no impairment of
the value of such assets. The analysis of indicators of impairment and future
cash flows are estimates made by management.


                                       8
<PAGE>

Patents - The Company has acquired patents utilized within the various
manufacturing processes. These patents are amortized over their respective
lives, typically 17 years. Management believes there has been no impairment in
the value of these patents.

Accounting for Stock-based Compensation - The Company accounts for stock-based
employee compensation under the requirements of Accounting Principles Board
(APB) Opinion No. 25, which does not require compensation to be recorded if the
consideration to be received is at least equal to fair value at the measurement
date. Nonemployee stock-based transactions are accounted for under the
requirements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's (FASB) Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED
COMPENSATION, which requires compensation to be recorded based on the fair value
of the securities issued or the services received, whichever is more reliably
measurable.

Estimates & Reserves - The Company's principal reserves relate to accounts
receivable and inventory. A detailed review of these reserves is done annually
with a general review quarterly. Based on the most recent annual review the
Company believes these reserve are adequate and the amounts consistent with
prior year's level. A significant estimate is made in the annual impairment
testing of goodwill. Changes in management's estimate of fair value of the
Company could result in future impairment charges.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - FISCAL YEAR 2004 COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR 2003

Consolidated sales for 2004 of $13,250,000 were above 2003 fiscal sales by
$706,000 (5.6%). From a product group perspective, OEM sales exceeded the prior
year by $469,000 (23.5%), Bioprocessing/laboratory products were $224,000 (2.5%)
ahead of prior year while Operating Room Disposable products were marginally
ahead of 2003 sales by $13,000 (0.8%). The increase in OEM revenues is
principally related to an increase in orders from one significant account in
2004, partially offset by a decrease in another OEM account. Sales of the
Bioprocessing/laboratory products increased by $224,000 (2.5%) although a major
portion of this increase related to Spectrum's European subsidiary that
benefited from the year over year increase in the Euro exchange rate of 9.3%,
resulting in an exchange rate positive impact on sales of $146,000. From a
geographical perspective, sales increased within each region, as sales in the
U.S. increased $397,000 (4.2%), Japan sales increased $62,000 (9.8%), and all
other countries collectively, increased $101,000 (4.2%), exclusive of the
aforementioned positive exchange impact.

Cost of sales increased $937,000 (13.8%), versus the above discussed sales
increase of 5.6%, resulting in gross margin percent in 2004 of 41.7% versus 2003
gross margin percentage of 45.8%. The decline in margin principally relates to
product mix within the Company's OEM product line.

Research and development expenses in 2004 were $843,000, a decrease of $25,000
(2.9%) from 2003. The decrease primarily relates to lower salary and related
expenditures partially offset by increased engineering consulting related
expenses.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) were $3.908,000 in 2004 a
decrease of $509,000 (11.5%). The decrease in SG&A expenses principally related
to advertising related expenditures, with a decrease of $318,000. The decrease
in advertising was principally attributable to the company incurring limited
catalog amortization during 2004 and no newsletter expenditures during the
current year as Spectrum did not issue any BioProcessor newsletters in 2004
versus the three newsletters issued in 2003. Spectrum also incurred lower salary
and related expenditures of approximately $110,000 in 2004 versus 2003.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

During fiscal 2004, the Company generated approximately $1,410,000 of cash from
operating activities. Net working capital utilized $10,000 in cash during 2004
as the increase in inventory was principally offset by the decrease in prepaids,
while the decrease in accounts payable was more than offset by the increase in
accrued expenses. The Company expended $383,000 on fixed assets and did pay
$960,000 in debt payments during 2004 although it increased its total debt by
$4,215,000 in December of 2004.

The City National Bank credit agreement does restrict the use of the cash
proceeds to certain purposes as defined in the agreement. The credit agreement
prohibits the payment of cash dividends without prior bank approval.


                                       9
<PAGE>

In December of 2001 Spectrum entered into a specific research, licensing,
manufacturing and supply agreements (the "Agreements") with an unrelated
company, now known as Arbios Systems, Inc. ("Arbios"). These Agreements, among
other aspects, resulted in Spectrum being granted 362,669 shares of Arbios.
Arbios became a public company on October 30, 2003 and is listed on the OTC
Bulleting Board under the symbol of ABOS.OB. Arbios is an early-stage biomedical
device company engaged in the discovery, acquisition and development of
proprietary liver assist devices and new technologies useful in the diagnosis
and treatment of acute liver failure. In compliance with FAS115 based on the
listed trade price of $2.65 per share Spectrum has allocated $961,000 as the
fair market value reflecting this amount as comprehensive income on its balance
sheet. Spectrum has classified this amount as a non current asset as it realizes
there have been limited trades in Arbios and the potential to sell the stock may
be limited. Arbios being an early stage developmental company this investment
may be subject to significant adjustments. Spectrum's Chairman of the Board of
Directors and Chief Executive Officer is also a member of the Board of Directors
of Arbios.

The Company's management believes that cash on hand plus cash anticipated to be
generated from operations will be sufficient to meet the Company's cash
requirements for 2005.

A summary of our contractual cash obligations at December 25, 2004 is as
follows:

             REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
of Spectrum Laboratories, Inc. and its subsidiaries:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Spectrum
Laboratories, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 25, 2004,
and the related consolidated statement of operations, stockholders' equity, and
cash flows for the year then ended. Our audit also included the financial
statement schedule listed at the index as of and for the year ended December 25,
2004. These consolidated financial statements and schedules are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these consolidated financial statements and schedule based on our
audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosure in the estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

The consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Spectrum Laboratories, Inc. and its
subsidiaries as of December 25, 2004, and the results of their operations and
their cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our
opinion, the financial statement schedule when considered in relation to the
basic consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, presents fairly, in
all material respects, the information set forth therein.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE 1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION - The consolidated
         financial statements include the accounts of Spectrum Laboratories,
         Inc. (Spectrum) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the Company), SLI
         Acquisition Corp. (SLIAC), Spectrum Europe B.V. (Spectrum B.V.) and
         Spectrum Chromatography (Chromatography). The Company develops and
         sells proprietary tubular membranes and membrane devices for existing
         and emerging life science applications used primarily by research
         laboratories. The Company is also engaged in the manufacture and sale
         of medical laboratory equipment and supplies and disposable products.
         Certain of the Company's products are regulated by the United States
         Food and Drug Administration and the California Food and Drug Bureau.
         All products are for sale primarily to the pharmaceutical,
         biotechnology and medical industries.

         FISCAL YEAR - The Company's fiscal year ends on the last Saturday of
         the calendar year. The years ended December 25, 2004 (fiscal year 2004)
         and December 27, 2003 (fiscal year 2003) both consist of 52 weeks.

         PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION - The accompanying consolidated financial
         statements include the accounts of Spectrum and its wholly owned
         subsidiaries and majority-owned subsidiary, SLIAC. All intercompany
         balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

         USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements require
         management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
         amounts of assets, liabilities, the value of stock based compensation
         and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
         financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses
         during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
         estimates.

         The Company's operations are affected by numerous factors including
         market acceptance, changes in technologies and new laws and government
         regulations and policies. The Company cannot predict what impact, if
         any, the occurrence of these or other events might have on the
         Company's operations. Significant estimates and assumptions made by
         management are used for, but not limited to, the allowance for doubtful
         accounts, the reserve for slow moving or obsolete inventories, the fair
         value of long-lived and intangible assets, and the realizability of
         deferred tax assets.

         CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS - The Company classifies all highly liquid
         investments with original maturities of 90 days or less at the time of
         purchase as cash and cash equivalents. The Company, periodically
         throughout the year, has amounts on deposit that exceed insured limits.

         TRADE RECEIVABLES - The Company sells its products nationally and
         internationally, primarily through distributors, to medical equipment
         and medical supply companies. The Company performs ongoing credit
         evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral.
         Trade receivables are carried at original invoice amount less an
         estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all
         outstanding amounts on a monthly basis. Management determines the
         allowance for doubtful accounts by identifying troubled accounts and by
         using historical experience applied to an aging of accounts. Trade
         receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of
         trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received. No
         interest is charged on past due accounts.

         INVENTORIES - Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (using the
         first-in first-out method) or market value.

         INVESTMENT IN MARKETABLE SECURITIES CLASSIFIED AS AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE
         SECURITIES - Management determines the appropriate classification of
         the securities at the time they are acquired and evaluates the
         appropriateness of such classifications at each balance sheet date.
         Management has determined that all securities should be classified as
         available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are stated at fair
         value and unrealized holding gains and losses, net of the related
         deferred tax effect, are reported as a separate component of
         stockholders' equity. Realized gains and losses, including losses from
         declines in value of specific securities determined by management to be
         other than temporary, are included in income. Realized gains and losses
         are determined on the basis of the specific identification of the
         securities sold. As of December 25, 2004, available-for-sale securities
         consisted of equity ownership of one entity. Such ownership had a
         historical cost of $0 and a pre tax unrealized gain was $54,000 and
         $907,000 in 2004 and 2003, respectively.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE 1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

         LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND PATENTS - Equipment and leasehold improvements
         are recorded at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization.
         Depreciation of equipment is provided using the straight-line method
         over the estimated useful lives (generally five years) of the
         respective assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a
         straight-line basis over the lesser of the lease term or the estimated
         useful life of the asset. Amortization of leasehold improvements is
         included with depreciation expense. No depreciation is being provided
         for the Company owned artwork, which is carried at its historical cost.

         The Company periodically reviews its long-lived assets including
         patents to determine potential impairment by comparing the carrying
         value of the long-lived assets with the estimated future net
         undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets,
         including cash flows from disposition. Long-lived assets evaluated for
         impairment are grouped with other assets to the lowest level for which
         identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of
         other groups of assets and liabilities. Should the sum of the expected
         future net cash flows be less than the carrying value, the Company
         would recognize an impairment loss at that date. An impairment loss
         would be measured by comparing the amount by which the carrying value
         exceeds the fair value (estimated discounted future cash flows) of the
         long-lived assets. For the year ended December 25, 2004, management has
         determined that no impairment of long-lived assets including patents
         exists.

         Changes in circumstances, such as the passage of new laws or changes in
         regulations, technological advances or changes to the Company's
         business strategy, could result in the actual useful lives of
         long-lived assets differing from initial estimates. Factors such as
         changes in the planned use of equipment, customer attrition,
         contractual amendments or mandated regulatory requirements could result
         in shortened useful lives. In those cases where the Company determines
         that the useful life of a long-lived asset should be revised, the
         Company will amortize or depreciate the net book value in excess of the
         estimated residual value over its revised remaining useful life.

         The Company has acquired patents totaling $750,000 which are being
         amortized over their respective useful lives of approximately twelve
         years. Patent amortization for the fiscal years ended 2004 and 2003 was
         approximately $60,000 for each year. Estimated amortization expense for
         the next five years is approximately $60,000 annually, all of which
         relates to these patents.

         GOODWILL - In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
         (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No 142,
         GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS (SFAS No. 142). SFAS No. 142
         addresses financial accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill and
         other intangibles assets and was effective for the Company beginning
         December 30, 2001. Upon adoption of SFAS 142, management has determined
         there is one reporting unit and evaluated the carrying value of
         goodwill for potential impairment losses and determined no impairment
         existed. Management updates its annual goodwill impairment evaluation
         as of September of each fiscal year and has concluded that no
         impairment exists as of September 25, 2004. For goodwill, the
         impairment evaluation includes a comparison of the carrying value of
         the reporting unit (including goodwill) to that reporting unit's fair
         value. If the reporting unit's estimated fair value exceeds the
         reporting unit's carrying value, no impairment of goodwill exists. If
         the fair value of the reporting unit does not exceed the unit's
         carrying value, then an additional analysis is performed to allocate
         the fair value of the reporting unit to all of the assets and
         liabilities of that unit as if that unit had been acquired in a
         business combination and the fair value of the unit was the purchase
         price. If the excess of the fair value of the reporting unit over the
         fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities is less than the
         carrying value of the unit's goodwill, an impairment charge is recorded
         for the difference.

         INCOME TAXES - Deferred income taxes are provided on a liability method
         whereby deferred income tax assets are recognized for deductible
         temporary differences and tax credit carryforwards and deferred income
         tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences.
         Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts
         of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred income tax
         assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of

         management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the
         deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred income tax assets
         and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and
         rates on the date of enactment.

         EARNINGS PER SHARE - Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing
         the net income attributable to the common stockholders by the weighted
         average number of common shares outstanding during the period. There is
         no adjustment in the net income attributable to common stockholders.
         Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could
         occur from common shares issuable through stock options (250,704 and
         69,366 equivalent shares in the fiscal years 2004 and 2003,
         respectively).

         REVENUE RECOGNITION - The Company records revenue at the time the
         related products are shipped.

         PRODUCT RETURNS AND WARRANTIES - The Company records a provision for
         estimated product returns and warranties at the time the revenue is
         recognized.

         RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT - The Company expenses research and
         development costs as incurred.

         ADVERTISING COSTS - Costs associated with advertising and promoting
         products are expensed as incurred. Advertising and promotion expense
         was approximately $171,000 and $449,000 during fiscal years 2004 and
         2003, inclusive of trade shows in both years.

         REMEASUREMENT OF FOREIGN CURRENCIES - Monetary assets and liabilities
         of Spectrum B.V. are remeasured into U.S. dollars at year-end exchange
         rates and nonmonetary assets and stockholders' equity are remeasured
         using historical rates of exchange. Income and expenses are remeasured
         at average rates during the respective years. The functional currency
         of this subsidiary is the U.S. dollar; therefore, remeasurement gains
         or losses are included in income. Remeasurement gains included in
         income as contra SG&A expenditure for fiscal years 2004 and 2003 were
         approximately $34,000 and $51,000, respectively. As of December 25,
         2004 there was $159,000 in cash and $249,000 in accounts receivable
         that were denominated in Euros.

         FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - Management believes that the
         carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value
         because of the short maturity of these financial instruments. Long-term
         debt bears interest at a rate indexed to the prime rate and, therefore,
         management believes the carrying amount of the outstanding borrowings
         at December 25, 2004 approximates fair market value.

         ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION - The Company accounts for
         stock-based employee compensation under the requirements Financial
         Accounting Standards Board's Statement of Financial Accounting
         Standards No. 123, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION "SFAS No.
         123 which allows utilizing Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion
         No. 25, which does not require compensation to be recorded if the
         consideration to be received is at least equal to fair value at the
         measurement date. Nonemployee stock-based transactions are accounted
         for under SFAS No. 123, the requirements of the, which requires
         compensation to be recorded based on the fair value of the securities
         issued or the services received, whichever is more reliably measurable.

         SFAS No. 123 requires the disclosure of pro forma net income and
         earnings per share had the Company adopted the fair value method. Under
         SFAS No. 123, the fair value of stock-based awards to employees is
         calculated through the use of option-pricing models, even though such
         models were developed to estimate the fair value of freely tradable,
         fully transferable options with vesting restrictions which
         significantly differ from the Company's stock option awards. These
         models also require subjective assumptions, including future stock
         price volatility and expected time to exercise, which greatly affect
         the calculated value. The Company's calculations for the options
         granted in 2004 were made using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model
         with the following weighted average assumptions in 2004: expected life
         of ten years; stock volatility of 87%; risk-free interest rate 2.8%;
         and no dividends during the expected term.

         SEGMENT INFORMATION - In accordance with FASB Statement No. 131,
         DISCLOSURES ABOUT SEGMENTS OF AN ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION,
         the Company has determined the products are all classified into three
         product groups as further discussed in Note 13. The Company has further
         analyzed the type and class of its customers, and the product
         distribution methods, and has determined that the Company has one
         reportable segment.

         RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS -

         In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. ("FIN") 46,
         "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" ("FIN 46"). In December
         2003, FIN 46 was replaced by FASB interpretation No. 46(R)
         "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities." FIN 46(R) clarifies the
         application of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, "Consolidated
         Financial Statements," to certain entities in which equity investors do
         not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do
         not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its
         activities without additional subordinated financial support from other
         parties. FIN 46(R) requires an enterprise to consolidate a variable
         interest entity if that enterprise will absorb a majority of the
         entity's expected losses, is entitled to receive a majority of the
         entity's expected residual returns, or both. FIN 46(R) is effective for
         entities being evaluated under FIN 46(R) for consolidation no later
         than the end of the first reporting period that ends after March 15,
         2004. The Company does not currently have any variable interest
         entities that will be impacted by adoption of FIN 46(R).

         On April 30, 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS
         No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and
         Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies accounting for
         derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments
         embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under SFAS No.
         133. The new guidance amends SFAS No. 133 for decisions made as part of
         the Derivatives Implementation Group ("DIG") process that effectively
         required amendments to SFAS No. 133,

         and decisions made in connection with other FASB projects dealing with
         financial instruments and in connection with implementation issues
         raised in relation to the application of the definition of a derivative
         and characteristics of a derivative that contains financing components.
         In addition, it clarifies when a derivative contains a financing
         component that warrants special reporting in the statement of cash
         flows. SFAS No. 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified
         after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June
         30, 2003. Adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the
         Company's consolidated financial statements.

         In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150 ACCOUNTING FOR FINANCIAL
         INSTRUMENTS WITH THE CHARACTERISTICS OF BOTH LIABILITIES AND EQUITIES.
         SFAS No. 150 establishes standards regarding the manner in which an
         issuer classifies and measures certain types of financial instruments
         having characteristics of both liabilities and equity. Pursuant to SFAS
         No. 150, such freestanding financial instruments (i.e., those entered
         into separately from an entity's other financial instruments or equity
         transactions or that are legally detachable and separately exercisable)
         must be classified as liabilities or, in some cases, assets. In
         addition, SFAS No. 150 requires that financial instruments containing
         obligations to repurchase the issuing entity's equity shares and, under
         certain circumstances, obligations that are settled by delivery of the
         issuer's shares be classified as liabilities. Certain aspects of SFAS
         No. 150 have been deferred; however, the Statement is effective for
         financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003 and
         for other instruments at the beginning of the first interim period
         beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company does not currently have any
         financial instruments that have been impacted by SFAS No. 150.

         In December 2003, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No.
         104, "Revenue Recognition." SAB 104, which was effective upon issuance,
         updates portions of the interpretive guidance included in Topic 13 of
         the codification of Staff Accounting Bulletins and revises or rescinds
         portions of the interpretative guidance included in SAB 101 in order to
         make this interpretive guidance consistent with current authoritative
         accounting and auditing guidance and SEC rules and regulations. The
         principal revisions relate to the incorporation of certain sections of
         the staff's Frequently Asked Question ("FAQ") document on revenue
         recognition into Topic 13. SAB 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial
         Statements," which was issued in December 1999, provides guidance to
         SEC registrants on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of
         revenues in the financial statements. Since the Company has already
         adopted all such standards upon issuance, the application of this
         revised guidance did not impact its consolidated financial position,
         results of operations, or disclosure requirements.

         In July 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Forces ("EITF") published its
         consensus on Issue No. 03-1, "The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary
         Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments." EITF Issue No.
         03-1 addresses the meaning of other-than-temporary impairment and its
         application to debt and equity securities within the scope of Statement
         of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, certain debt and
         equity securities within the scope of SFAS No. 124, and equity
         securities that are not subject to the scope of SFAS No. 115 and not
         accounted for under the equity method of accounting. In September 2004,
         the Financial Accounting Standard Board ("FASB") issued FASB Staff
         Position ("FSP") Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue 03-1-b,
         Effective Date of Paragraphs 10-20 of EITF Issue No. 03-1, which delays
         the effective date for the recognition and measurement guidance in EITF
         Issue No. 03-1. In addition, the FASB has issued a proposed FSP to
         consider whether further application guidance is necessary for
         securities analyzed for impairment under EITF Issue No. 03-1-a.
         Adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company's
         consolidated financial statements.

         In November 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
         issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 151,
         "Inventory Costs" an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin ("ARB")
         No. 43, to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility
         expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). This
         Statement requires that those items be recognized as current-period
         charges regardless of whether they meet the criterion of "so abnormal".
         In addition, this Statement requires that allocation of fixed
         production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal
         capacity of the production facilities. Companies are required to adopt
         the provisions of this Statement for fiscal years beginning after June
         15, 2005. The Company does not believe there will be a material effect
         on its consolidated financial position or results of operations from
         the adoption of this standard.

NOTE 1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

         In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No.153, "Exchanges of
         Nonmonetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for
         Nonmonetary Transactions." The amendments made by Statement 153 are
         based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be
         measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. Further, the
         amendments eliminate the narrow exception for nonmonetary exchanges of
         similar productive assets and replace it with a broader exception for
         exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance.
         Previously, Opinion 29 required that the accounting for an exchange of
         a productive asset for a similar productive asset or an equivalent
         interest in the same or similar productive asset should be based on the
         recorded amount of the asset relinquished. Opinion 29 provided an
         exception to its basic measurement principle (fair value) for exchanges
         of similar productive assets. The Board believes that exception
         required that some nonmonetary exchanges, although commercially
         substantive, be recorded on a carryover basis. By focusing the
         exception on exchanges that lack commercial substance, the Board
         believes this Statement produces financial reporting that more
         faithfully represents the economics of the transactions. The Statement
         is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal
         periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted
         for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning
         after the date of issuance. The provisions of this Statement shall be
         applied prospectively. The Company has evaluated the impact of the
         adoption of SFAS 153, and does not believe the impact will be
         significant to the Company's overall results of operations or financial
         position.

         In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No.123 (revised 2004),
         "Share-Based Payment". Statement 123(R) will provide investors and
         other users of financial statements with more complete and neutral
         financial information by requiring that the compensation cost relating
         to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial
         statements. That cost will be measured based on the fair value of the
         equity or liability instruments issued. Statement 123(R) covers a wide
         range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options,
         restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation
         rights, and employee share purchase plans. Statement 123(R) replaces
         FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and
         supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
         Employees. Statement 123, as originally issued in 1995, established as
         preferable a fair-value-based method of accounting for share-based
         payment transactions with employees. However, that Statement permitted
         entities the option of continuing to apply the guidance in Opinion 25,
         as long as the footnotes to financial statements disclosed what net
         income would have been had the preferable fair-value-based method been
         used. Public entities (other than those filing as small business
         issuers) will be required to apply Statement 123(R) as of the first
         interim or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. The
         Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of SFAS 123(R), and
         the effect of which is discussed in Footnote 1.

         In December 2004 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued two
         FASB Staff Positions--FSP FAS 109-1, Application of FASB Statement 109
         "Accounting for Income Taxes" to the Tax Deduction on Qualified

         The net deferred tax assets have been classified on the accompanying
         consolidated balance sheet as follows:

         Current assets                                                 $       525,000

         Net deferred tax assets                                        $     1,605,000
                                                                        ===============
</TABLE>

         In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management has
         estimated that it is more likely than not that approximately $1,500,000
         will not be realized. This valuation allowance represents a portion of
         net operating loss carryforwards attained through a prior business
         acquisition. As further discussed below, tax law limits the use of an
         acquired entity's net operating loss carryforwards to subsequent
         taxable income of the consolidated entity. During fiscal years 2004 and
         2003, the Company utilized approximately $298,000 and $116,000,
         respectively, of net operating losses, to offset currently payable tax
         liability. Realization of the remaining deferred tax assets is
         dependent upon generating sufficient future taxable income. Although
         realization is not assured, management believes the net deferred taxes
         will be realized and continue to evaluate the realizability of the
         deferred tax assets by assessing the need for and amount of a valuation
         allowance.

         At December 25, 2004, the Company had approximately $5,176,000 in net
         operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes available
         to offset future taxable income. Certain of these loss carryforwards
         are limited to approximately $298,000 annually. Any unused net
         operating loss is carried forward. As a result of the limitation
         discussed above, it is probable that $1,500,000 of the Company's net
         operating loss will expire without utilization. Loss carryforwards for
         tax purposes expire in amounts and by fiscal year as follows: 2005
         $2,836,000; 2006 $1,820,000; 2007 $274,000; 2010 $13,000; 2012
         $114,000, 2018 $85,000 and 2202 $34,000.

NOTE 5.  LONG-TERM DEBT

         In December of 2004 the Company increased its borrowings by $4,215,000.
         Spectrum's prior two equipment acquisition loans were consolidated into
         one loan plus a revolving credit note. The proceeds of the acquisition
         loan are restricted to certain purposes, as defined in the credit
         agreement.The acquisition loan has an outstanding balance at December
         25, 2004 of $6,000,000, bears interest at prime plus .25% (5.50% at
         December 25, 2004) and requires 24 monthly principal installments of
         $85,000 beginning February 1, 2005 thru January 1, 2007, then 12
         monthly principal installments of $100,000 thru January 1, 2008, then

NOTE 5.  LONG-TERM DEBT (Continued)

         12 monthly principal installments of $110,000 thru January 1, 2009 and
         finally 12 monthly principal installments of $120,000 thru January 1,
         2010,

         The revolving credit note provides the Company with additional
         liquidity and the ability to issue letters of credit aggregating up to
         $300,000 through April 1, 2005. The Company did have a $75,000
         outstanding standby letter of credit outstanding as of December 25,
         2004 although no proceeds had been drawn against the standby letter of
         credit during 2004. Interest on any proceeds drawn on the revolving
         credit note bear interest at prime plus .25% and interest is payable on
         the first of every month. The Company is required to have a period of
         not less than 30 consecutive days during the 12 month period ending
         April 1, 2005 during which time there are to be no outstanding
         revolving credit loans.

         The agreement is secured by substantially all of the assets of the
         Company and is personally guaranteed by the majority stockholder. The
         agreement also requires the maintenance of certain financial and
         non-financial loan covenants and restricts payment of dividends. The
         Company was not in compliance with one of these loan covenants at
         December 27, 2003 relating to cash flow to debt coverage. The Company
         received a covenant waiver from its bank on March 25, 2004. Future
         maturities of long-term debt owed on December 25, 2004 by fiscal year
         are approximately as follows: 2005 $935,000; 2006 $1,020,000; 2007
         $1,185,000; 2008 $1,310,000; 2009 $1,430,000; and 2010 $120,000.

NOTE 6.  STOCK OPTION PLAN

         The Company has an option plan referred to as the 2000 Option Plan (the
         "2000 Option Plan"or "Plan") with 600,000 shares of common stock
         reserved for option grants to key employees, directors and consultants.
         Exercise prices for the stock options will not be less than 100% of the
         fair market value of the stock on the date of grant. Options under the
         Plan expire not more than ten years from date of grant. Options issued
         under the Plan become exercisable over a five-year period (20% per
         year).

         In addition to the 2000 Option Plan, during 1998 the Company granted
         nonqualified stock options to purchase 5% of the outstanding stock to
         an officer of the Company at $1.20 per share. The terms of this grant
         result in variable plan accounting. Accordingly, future compensation
         expense will be measured and recorded based on stock price
         fluctuations. At the date of grant, 60% of these options vested
         immediately and the remaining 40% vest over two to four years. As of
         2003, all of these options, which aggregate to 265,624, are fully
         vested. Total compensation expense recorded was approximately $12,000
         in both fiscal years.

         A summary of the status of the Plan and the nonqualified options and

NOTE 7.  WARRANTS

         During the first quarter of 2004 the Company issued warrants to a third
         party (the Warrant Holder) to purchase 125,000 shares of common stock
         at $1.70 per share through February 4, 2010 with a fair value of
         $130,000. The Warrant Holder is entitled to purchase an additional
         125,000 shares of common stock at $1.70 upon having assisted Spectrum
         in raising at least $2.5 million in gross proceeds from one or more
         private or public equity financings originated or facilitated by the
         Warrant Holder through February 3, 2010. Spectrum's estimate of the
         fair value of the first 125,000 warrants granted were made using the
         Black-Scholes warrant-pricing model with the following weighted average
         assumptions: expected life of three years; stock volatility of 66%;
         risk-free interest rate 2.5%; and no dividends during the expected
         term.

         Based on the Black-Scholes warrant-pricing model Spectrum and the Board
         of Directors decision not to actively pursue either private or public
         equity financing at this time Spectrum has recorded $130,000 in warrant
         related expense in the third quarter associated with the 125,000
         warrants issued during the first quarter. If Spectrum is successful in
         the future, in raising the required $2.5 million, with the Warrant
         Holder's assistance, the additional 125,000 warrants will vest
         immediately upon issuance and the Company will measure the warrants
         using the Black-Scholes warrant pricing model and the fair value of the
         warrants will be charged against the proceeds at that time.

NOTE 8.  RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

         ROYALTY AGREEMENT - The Company is committed under a royalty agreement
         to pay the majority stockholder royalties of 7% of the net sales of

         During 2004 and 2003, the Company incurred royalty expenses of $304,000
         and $312,000, respectively, under this agreement.

         The Company's Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive
         Officer is also on the Board of Directors of Arbios Systems, Inc. in

         quarter.

NOTE 16. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

         The Board of Directors of Spectrum elected on October 6, 2004 to amend
         its Certificate of Incorporation to effect a 1 for 25,000 reverse stock
         split, upon SEC approving the transaction. Stockholders, subsequent to
         the reverse stock split, holding fractional shares, would be paid $2.56
         per share for each pre reverse stock split share. The Board of
         Directors then elected to effectuate a going private transaction as
         subsequent to the reverse stock split the Company anticipates it will
         only have 3 shareholders.

         To effectuate the above transactions Spectrum filed a Schedule 14C
         Information Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission
         ("SEC") on October 12, 2004 with an amended Schedule 14C filed on March
         2, 2005 In addition the Company filed a Schedule 13E-3 Transaction
         Statement on October 13, 2004 with a subsequent amended Schedule 13E-3A
         being filed on October 19, 2004 with an additional amended Schedule
         13E-3A being filed on March 2, 2005. It is anticipated the reverse
         stock split and the Company becoming private will be effective in the
         second quarter of 2005. The Company has recognized approximately
         $65,000 in expense as of December 25, 2004 relating to going private.
