SUTRON CORPORATION

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2000


1.  Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements, which should
 be read in conjunction with the financial statements of
 Sutron Corporation ("the Company") included
in the 1999 Annual Report filed on Form 10-KSB, are
unaudited but have been prepared in the ordinary course
of business for the purpose of providing
information with respect to the interim period.  The
Company believes that all adjustments (none of which
 were other than normal recurring accruals)
necessary for a fair presentation for such periods
 have been included.

2.  Earnings Per Share

The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") No. 128 which establishes standards for
computing and presenting earnings per share (EPS) for entities
 with publicly held common stock.  The standard requires
presentation  of two categories of earning per share, basic EPS
 and diluted EPS.  Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed
by dividing income available to common stockholders by the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for
the year.  Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could
occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were
exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the
 issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings
of the Company.

                          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                               AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations

Third Quarter 2000 Compared to 1999

Net Revenues.  Sutron Corporation revenues for the
fiscal quarters ended September 30, 2000 and
September 30, 1999 were $3,569,338 and $3,133,389,
respectively (an increase of 14%).  Shipments on
four international projects to Peru and
Central America represented 49% of third quarter sales
for the quarter ended September 30, 2000.

Gross Profit.  The Company's gross profit for the quarter
 ended September 30, 2000 increased 15% to $1,629,561
from $1,416,755  for the quarter ended September 30, 1999.
Gross profit as a percentage of sales increased  to 45.7%
from 45.2%.  Gross profits increased in 2000 due primarily
to the increase in sales.

Selling, General And Administrative.  Selling, general
And  administrative costs increased to $609,169
for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 from $534,632
for 1999.  The increase is due  to increased sales
commissions relating to the international projects
which shipped during the third quarter of 2000.

Research And Development.  Research and development
expenses decreased 5% to $338,138 in the quarter ended
September 30, 2000 from $357,108 in the quarter ended
September 30, 1999.

Nine months ended September 30, 2000 Compared to 1999

Revenues.  The Company's revenues for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 decreased 17% to $7,249,800 from revenues
of $8,727,213 in 1999.  The US Geological Survey placed two
orders totaling $1,912,000  for the 8210 Data Recorder/GOES
Transmitter during the first six months of 1999. These were
one time orders.  The 8210's replaced older units which were
retired by the US Geological Survey.

Gross Profit.  Gross profit for 2000 decreased to $2,920,548
from $3,814,168 in 1999.  Gross margin as a percentage of
revenues for 2000 decreased to 40.3% as compared to 43.7%
in 1999.  The decrease in the Company's gross margin as a
percentage of sales is attributed to the decreased sales volume.

Selling, General and Administrative.  Selling, general and
administrative expenses  increased to $1,696,580 in 2000 from
$1,750,429 in 1999, a decrease of $53,849 due to decreased
 sales and marketing activities by the Integrated Services
Division and international selling expenses.

Research and Development.  Research and development
 expenses increased 27% to $1,049,079 in 2000 from $827,605
in 1999, an increase of $221,474. The Company is working
on four major new producs and has added additional
engineers and support staff and increased spending on
application and software development projects
during the nine months ended September 30, 2000.

Backlog.  The Company's backlog of orders at September 30, 2000 was
approximately $3,407,000.  The Company anticipates that 65%
of its backlog will be shipped in 2000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents decreased to $47,451 at September 30, 2000,
compared to $159,507 at December 31, 1999.

The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 2.9 as of
September 30, 2000, compared to 3.6 as of December 31, 1999.  Working
capital increased $39,960 to $3,347,735 at the end of the third
quarter of fiscal 2000 compared to $3,307,775 at the end of fiscal 1999.

Management believes internally generated funds and short-term
borrowings on our existing credit line will provide adequate resources
for supporting operations during the remainder of fiscal 2000.
