eLINEAR, INC.
AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 AND 2001
(Unaudited)

1.       The financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2001.

2.       In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the period presented have been included. The results of operations for the three and  nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year.

3.        Background of company and basis of presentation

eLinear, Inc. (the "Company" or "eLinear") has operated an Internet consulting business since December 1999. The Company acquired its Internet consulting business as a result of its merger with Imagenuity, Inc. ("Imagenuity") in late 1999. Immediately prior to acquiring the business of Imagenuity, the Company, which at the time was named Kinetiks.com, Inc., did not engage in any business activities except for negotiating and compromising debt and searching for merger candidates. While Kinetiks.com, Inc. was the survivor in the merger, from an accounting standpoint the transaction was accounted for as though it was a recapitalization of Imagenuity and a sale of shares by Imagenuity in exchange for the net assets of Kinetiks.com, Inc. On July 31, 2000, the Company changed its name to eLinear, Inc.

4.       Operations and Liquidity

During the third quarter of 2002, there was a further deterioration of the business prospects for Internet technology consulting companies including companies of all sizes and geographic locations, especially larger sized companies. Overall business investment declined approximately 30% during 2001. The events of September 11, 2001 brought overall business investment in information technology to a virtual standstill for the remainder of 2001. eLinear's sales projections for the first, second and third quarters were impacted severely consistent with the internet consulting industry as a whole.

Based on the continued deterioration of the market for technology consulting services in Denver, the Company decided to abandon its operations in the Denver market.  The Company expects that it will realize reduced operational costs in the fourth quarter of 2002 as a result of this and other cost cutting measures.  The Company feels that a return to the Denver market when overall economic conditions improve is feasible, and will consider it as the market for technology consulting services begins to improve.

The Company cannot expand beyond its current limited level of operations in Houston without additional capitalization. The Company continues to seek new capital, or appropriate merger candidates.  There can, however, be no assurance that such sources of capital or appropriate merger candidates will be available to the Company or, if available, that they will be upon terms and conditions acceptable to the Company. Accordingly, the Company intends to continue to attempt to diversify and expand its customer base with its current limited resources and maintain overhead costs at low levels. While management believes these efforts may result in modest positive operating cash flows in 2002, there can be no assurance to that effect.

5.      Equity

Investor agreement

On April 3, 2002, four members of management ("Selling Shareholders") entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with a potential investor for the sale of shares of the Company's common stock, which the Selling Shareholders had acquired pursuant to the exercise of options. In March 2002, each of the four Selling Shareholders exercised options to purchase 50,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $2.18 per share and exercised additional options to purchase an additional 50,000 shares of our common stock each for an exercise price of $2.90 per share. Each Selling Shareholder agreed to sell all of the shares of common stock acquired to the investor. The investor agreed to pay each Selling Shareholder $3.18 and $4.90 per share, respectively, for each share of common stock purchased for $2.18 and $2.90 per share, respectively. The Company and the Selling Shareholders have terminated all agreements with the potential investor as of June 30, 2002.

Stock subscriptions receivable

As discussed in the preceding paragraph, the Company accepted promissory notes comprising $436,000 and $580,000 from four members of management of the Company in exchange for the exercise of common stock options on March 20, 2002 and March 27, 2002, respectively. These notes are non-interest bearing and due in annual installments of $218,000 and $290,000, respectively for two years. Payments of $21,800 were made toward the promissory notes in April 2002 by the management resulting from the sale of 10,000 shares. 
The remainder of the shares have not been purchased by the investor and the Selling Shareholders rescinded their common shares in return for the options originally exercised. The stock subscriptions receivable were simultaneously canceled in April 2002 in relation to this transaction.

6.       Major customer information

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company generated revenues from two customers that represented 52% and 48% of total revenues, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Company generated revenues from two customers that represented 55% and 47% of total revenues, respectively

7.       Litigation

From time to time, the Company may become involved in litigation arising in the ordinary course of its business. The Company is not presently subject to any material legal proceedings outside of the ordinary course of business except as set forth below:

On December 16, 1999, eLinear and Imagenuity were served with a complaint captioned Chris Sweeney v. Kinetiks.com, Inc. and Imagenuity, Inc., Circuit Court, Duval County, Florida, Civil Case Number 1999-7252-CA. The Complaint alleged a breach of an alleged oral modification of a written employment agreement between the Plaintiff, Chris Sweeney, and Imagenuity and alleged breaches by eLinear and Imagenuity of fiduciary obligations which the Plaintiff claims were owed to him. Plaintiff is seeking as damages twenty percent of eLinear's common stock received by the sole shareholder of Imagenuity in connection with the merger of Imagenuity with and into eLinear's subsidiary. After the filing of the Complaint, eLinear's subsidiary, Elinear Corporation, was added as a Defendant. Management intends to vigorously contest the case. While the Company believes the case to have no merit, at this stage it is impossible to predict the amount or range of potential loss, if any.

In December of 1999, eLinear counter-sued Chris Sweeney in a lawsuit captioned Elinear Corporation v. Chris Sweeney, United States District Court, District of Colorado, Case Number 99-WM-2434. The Complaint sought a determination of the rights of the parties with respect to the termination of Chris Sweeney's employment agreement with Imagenuity. This lawsuit was indefinitely stayed pending resolution of the Florida litigation discussed above.

As of the date of this report, the company has settled the lawsuit brought by its former Chief Financial Officer in September 2000.  eLinear, Inc.'s previous disclosure that Paul Thomas had been terminated "for cause," was in error and is hereby retracted.

Overview

During the third quarter 2002, there was a continued deterioration of the business prospects for Internet technology companies including companies of all sizes and geographic locations. Overall business investment declined approximately 30% during 2001. The events of September 11, 2001 brought overall business investment in information technology to a virtual standstill for the remainder of 2002. Only "must have" projects continued on and virtually all "nice to have" projects disappeared. New commitments for consulting services, project management integration services and purchase of new and add-on software have not recovered from the 2000 and 2001 downturns. New commitments continue to be terminated or pushed to the fourth quarter of 2002 or fiscal 2003 for reconsideration. eLinear's sales performance for the third quarter was impacted severely consistent with the internet consulting industry as a whole.  The market for technology consulting services has moved away from a project based model, whereby eLinear would be asked to provide a team of technical resources as well as take on overall responsibility for the management of the project, and moved towards a staff augmentation model, whereby the customer will provide the project management and take overall responsibility for the project, and the Company is asked to provide only the technical resources.  This "staff augmentation" market is extremely price competitive, and has pressured the Company's ability to generate acceptable gross margins.  Combined with the overall deterioration of the demand for technology consulting services, this has resulted in both reduced gross margins and reduced revenue.  In light of this, the Company has attempted to further reduce its overhead expenses to bring these in line with the reduced expectations for gross margins and revenues.  There can be no assurances that these cost cutting efforts will be sufficient to allow the company to maintain operations in the fourth quarter of 2002.

Restructuring Activities

Due to the almost complete inability to forecast sales on a quarter-by-quarter basis, restructuring of eLinear's staffing and resource allocations are an ongoing operation.

Macro Analysis

The Company continued to operate under its new business model, which was fully employed during the second quarter of 2001. As of September 30, 2002, there were 7 full time employees.

Marketing And Sales

eLinear has no present financial capacity to expand beyond the Houston market.  The Company has abandoned the Denver office in a effort to reduce costs.

As previously stated, the Company's ability to control and forecast revenues on a quarterly basis is extremely limited because of the volatility of Information Technology budgets. Corporate budgets for technology investment have consistently been short term and extremely variable and even more so since September 11, 2001. Client commitments tend to be short term and very limited and do not usually include total project scope and budget.

The Management Team

The management team now consists of 7 full time employees with their time allocated approximately as follows:

|Technology development and product licensing | 15%  | 
|-------------------------------------------- | ---- | 
|Marketing, sales and business development    | 15%  | 
|Project management                           | 15%  | 
|Technical and strategic consulting           | 40%  | 
|Corporate operations                         | 15%  | 
|                                             | 100% | 

The Company will continue to hire new employees on a project-by-project basis and to contract work that does not usually require client interface. There is a much larger pool of temporary and part time workers available now as compared to calendar year 2001.  However, the employment cost of hiring skilled subcontractors has increased somewhat compared to 2001. The Company makes no assurance that it can always hire subcontractors when they are needed at rates that will generate acceptable gross margins to
eLinear.

Risk Factors

eLinear's New Business Model dictates internal growth rates based on continued expansion and diversification of its customer base coupled with tight management of its corporate and fixed cost structure. While the Company has been successful in significantly reducing certain overhead costs, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to expand its client base without additional capitalization. No assurance can be made that the Company will be able to arrange for any interim debt and/or equity financing to support current operations, much less provide for any expansion. The Company is currently seeking additional capital but it can make no assurance that it will be successful or that it will be able to secure such financing on terms and conditions acceptable to the Company. Since the Company is operating with a new business model the likelihood of its continued success should be considered in light of the problems, expenses and delays that are frequently encountered by companies in the middle stages of business transition. Also to be considered is the competition and economic environment in which the Company conducts its business.

The Company relies heavily on its CEO for consulting, marketing and sales and corporate management. In 2001, the Company has adopted an amended stock option plan and granted significant amounts of those options to motivate and retain senior management and key personnel. Currently, these stock options are substantially out of the money.  The Company has no formal employment contracts with senior management in existence at this time. The Company has no ability at this time to pay performance bonuses as well as pay fully competitive salaries to senior management.

The loss of two or more major clients would severely impact the Company's growth model. The ongoing organizational restructuring to 7 full time persons should allow the Company to further retrench before re-engaging its growth model. Furthermore the Company is subject to certain litigation and ongoing public company compliance expenses. See "Legal Matters."

The Company was able to arrange for a limited private placement for $74,250 during the first quarter of 2002 that was executed and funded during the second quarter of 2002 as part of its ongoing re-capitalization efforts. Ongoing efforts to raise equity and/or debt financing are necessary requirements of senior management; however, those efforts subtract from the capability of senior management to increase their marketing and sales efforts. The Company retained an investment banker throughout the second and third quarters of 2002 to assist the Company in raising additional equity and/or locating a suitable merger partner.  This engagement did not result in either raising additional equity or locating a suitable merger partner.

Results of Operations:

Revenues: Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 decreased $733,290 to $740,076 from $1,473,366  for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2002 decreased $288,220 to $278,358 from $566,578for the three months ended September 30, 2001. The decrease in revenue was due to the decreased corporate information technology budgets and significant reductions in the effective billing rates charged to existing and new customers. Additionally, significant time and attention of eLinear senior management was dedicated to fundraising, which diverted their attention from generating revenue and attracting new customers.

Consulting Contract Expense: Cost of consulting contract revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 decreased $74,397 to $623,697 from $698,094 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. Cost of consulting contract revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2002 decreased $95,788 to $197,714 from $293,502 for the three months ended September 30, 2001. The decrease in expense resulted from reductions in overhead and personnel required to support reduced support and maintenance contracts and reduced staffing requirements for large-scale integration projects.

Operating Expense: Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 decreased $77,983 to $513,914  from $591,897 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2002 decreased $108,324 to $114,579 from $222,903for the comparable three months ended September 30, 2001.  The decrease in expense resulted from reductions in overhead and personnel, as well as aggressive cost cutting and budgeting programs implemented by senior management.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company generated revenues from two customers that represented 52% and 48% of total revenues, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Company generated revenues from two customers that represented 55% and 47% of total revenues, respectively. There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to further diversify its customer base. Revenues and earnings will also fluctuate based on the number and size of projects undertaken at the Company during any period of time.

Cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2002 were $29,514, compared to $113,065 as of September 30, 2001.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, cash used by operations was $203,431. For the nine months ended September 30, 2001, cash used by operations was $77,706.

Net cash used in investing activities was $0 and $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $ 124,400 and $ 62,700 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively

The Company cannot expand beyond its current limited level of operations in Houston without additional capitalization. While the Company has been successful in significantly reducing certain overhead costs this quarter, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to expand its client base without additional capitalization. The Company was able to arrange for a limited private placement of equity for $74,250 during the first quarter of 2002 that was executed and funded during the second quarter of 2002, as part of its ongoing re-capitalization efforts. No assurances can be made that the Company will be able to arrange for any further interim debt and/or equity financing to support current operations, much less provide for any expansion. The Company is currently seeking additional capital but it can make no assurance that it will be successful or that it will be able to secure such financing on terms and conditions acceptable to the Company.

Item 3.      Controls and Procedures

Jon V. Ludwig, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of eLinear, has established and is currently maintaining disclosure controls and procedures for the Company.  The disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to ensure that material information relating to the Company is made known to him as soon as it is known by others within the Company.

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer conducts an update and a review and evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures and have concluded, based on his evaluation within 90 days of the filing of this Report, that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective for gathering, analyzing and disclosing the information we are required to disclose in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  There have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of the previously mentioned evaluation.
