NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2002
(Unaudited)

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 the instructions to
Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 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 considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Operating
results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002, are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31,
2002. For further information, refer to the Financial Statements and footnotes
thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2001.

Clean Diesel Technologies, Inc. (the "Company" or "CDT") was incorporated
in the State of Delaware on January 19, 1994, as a wholly owned subsidiary of
Fuel-Tech N.V. ("Fuel Tech"). Effective December 12, 1995, Fuel Tech completed
a Rights Offering of the Company's Common Stock that reduced its ownership in
the Company to 27.6%. Fuel Tech currently holds a 16.3% interest in the Company
as of June 30, 2002.

The Company is a specialty chemical and energy technology company supplying
fuel additives and proprietary systems that reduce harmful emissions from
internal combustion engines while improving fuel economy. Prior to 2000, the
Company was a development stage enterprise devoted to research, development, and
commercialization of platinum fuel catalysts (PFCs) and Nitrogen Oxide (NOx)
reduction technologies for diesel engines. During December 1999, the Company
received its EPA registration for its platinum - cerium product and recorded its
first commercial sales. Accordingly, in the opinion of management the Company
was no longer a development stage enterprise. The success of the Company's
technologies will depend upon the commercialization opportunities of the
technologies and governmental regulations, and corresponding foreign and state
agencies.

Prior to 2000, the Company was primarily engaged in research and
development and has incurred losses since inception totaling $20,908,000
(excluding non-cash preferred stock dividends). In management's opinion, the
Company's cash balance at June 30, 2002 will be sufficient to fund the Company's
operations through the second quarter 2003. The Company may require additional
capital to fund its future operations and working capital needs. Although the
Company believes that it would be successful in raising additional capital,
there is no guarantee that it will be able to raise such funds on terms that
will be satisfactory to the Company. The Company will develop contingency plans
in the event future financing efforts are not successful. Such plans may
include reducing expenses and selling or licensing some of the Company's
technologies.

INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market and consist of
finished product. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO)
method.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS

In fiscal year 2002, the Company began capitalizing the costs of patents.
Patents include costs to secure patents on technology developed by the Company.
Patents are amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining useful lives
of three to eighteen years. Patents are evaluated for potential impairment
whenever events or circumstances indicate that undiscounted cash flows are not
sufficient to recover their carrying amounts.


-6-

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company recognizes revenue from sales of Platinum Plus fuel borne
catalyst and ARIS 2000 systems upon shipment.

In April 2001, the Company amended its February 2000 ARIS Stationary NOx
Reduction license agreement with the RJM Corporation. Under the amended terms
of the license agreement, the Company received two fixed non-refundable payments
of $412,500 each on June 1 and September 1 in lieu of potentially receiving
$1,040,000 on the second or third anniversary. The Company recognized the
$825,000 as license revenue in 2001. The Company receives unit royalties on all
ARIS sales of stationary, marine or locomotive applications by RJM.

In August 2001, the Company completed a license agreement with Mitsui & Co.
Ltd for CDT's ARIS 2000 NOx control system for all stationary diesel power
generators in Japan. Under the agreement, the Company received a non-refundable
upfront license payment of $495,000, and will receive ongoing standard royalties
on each system sold by Mitsui. The Company recognized the license payment as
revenue in 2001, as there were no significant ongoing services to be performed
by the Company. Mitsui also has an option to license the ARIS technology for
mobile applications in Japan for an additional license fee.

Royalty fees are recognized by the Company when earned.

NOTES PAYABLE

In November 2000, the Company arranged a $1,000,000 term loan with three
private lenders. The term loan had a 10% interest rate and was payable in full
on May 14, 2002. The Company drew down $500,000 in November 2000 and the
remaining $500,000 in March of 2001. As part of the private placement stock
transaction in December 2001, $750,000 of the outstanding term loan plus accrued
interest was converted to common stock. The remaining $250,000 portion of the
term loan plus accrued interest was paid in cash on January 18, 2002.

STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

During December 2001, the Company received proceeds of $3.721 million (net
of $0.644 million in expenses and $0.817 million in term loan re-payment)
through private placements of 2,580,664 of its Common Stock. In 2000, the
Company received $1.021 million through private placements of 1,362 shares of
its Series A Preferred Stock. In addition, in 1999 $1.75 million was raised
through a private placement of 3,500 Series A preferred stock shares and in
1998, $1.4 million of bridge loans and $0.5 million of term loans were converted
into 2,800 and 1,029 shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

During 2001, $1,897,000 of non-cash stock dividend and conversion premium
were declared for the Series A preferred stock and converted into the Company's
Common Stock. On December 28, 2001, the Company converted all outstanding Series
A Preferred Stock (15,897 shares) including accrued stock dividends, into Common
Stock (5,934,829 shares).

EARNINGS PER SHARE

Employee stock options and stock purchase warrants were not included in the
computation of diluted earnings per share for 2002, because either the Company
reported a loss for the period or their exercise prices were greater than the
average market price of the common stock and therefore would be antidilutive.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In November 2000, the Company secured a $1,000,000 term loan facility at a
10% interest rate from several preferred shareholders, including Fuel Tech Inc.
which pledged $250,000. In 2000 and 2001 the Company drew down the entire
$1,000,000 term loan. In December 2001, $750,000 of term loan and accrued


-7-

interest was repaid as part of the December 2001 private placement of common
stock discussed in the stock holders equity note. In January 2002, the Company
repaid the remaining $250,000 term loan payable to Fuel Tech Inc. plus accrued
interest.

The Company has a Management and Services Agreement with Fuel Tech. Under
the agreement, the Company pays Fuel Tech a fee equal to an additional 3 - 10%
of the costs paid on the Company's behalf, dependent upon the nature of the
costs incurred. Currently, a fee of 3% is assessed on all costs billed to the
Company from Fuel Tech. Charges to the Company, inclusive of the administrative
fee, were approximately $17,300 in both the second quarter of 2002 and 2001.

COMMITMENTS

Effective October 28, 1994, Fuel Tech granted two licenses to the Company
for all patents and rights associated with its platinum fuel catalyst
technology. Effective November 24, 1997, the licenses were canceled and Fuel
Tech assigned to the Company all such patents and rights on terms substantially
similar to the licenses. In exchange for the assignment, the Company will pay
Fuel Tech a royalty of 2.5% of its annual gross revenue from sales of the
platinum fuel catalysts commencing in 1998. The royalty obligation expires in
2008. The Company may terminate the royalty obligation to Fuel Tech by payment
of $7,636,364 in 2002 and declining annually to $1,090,910 in 2008. The Company
as assignee and owner will maintain the technology at its own expense. The 2001
royalties of $2,673 were paid to Fuel Tech in 2002 and royalties payable to Fuel
Tech at June 30, 2002 were $425.

MARKETING AND LICENSE AGREEMENTS

In March 2001, the Company licensed the Lubrizol Corporation to distribute
and blend the Company's patented Platinum Plus fuel borne catalyst in Europe for
use with particulate filters. The seven year exclusive agreement includes
minimum annual sales performance requirements.

In June 2001 the Company announced a non-exclusive distribution license
agreement with Baker Petrolite, a division of Baker Hughes. Baker Petrolite
will distribute CDT's patented Platinum Plus diesel fuel combustion catalyst to
refineries and fuel terminals in the U.S. and Canada.

In August 2001, the Company completed a license agreement with Mitsui & Co.
Ltd for CDT's ARIS 2000 NOx control system for all stationary diesel power
generators in Japan. Under the agreement, the Company received non-refundable
upfront license payments of $495,000 and will receive ongoing standard royalties
on each system sold by Mitsui. Mitsui also has an option to license the ARIS
technology for mobile applications in Japan for an additional license fee.

In September 2001, the Company signed a license agreement with Global
Companies LLC for bulk treatment of diesel fuel with the Platinum Plus fuel
additive. Global Companies LLC of Waltham, MA will be the exclusive terminal
blender of the Platinum Plus diesel fuel combustion catalyst in New England for
delivery to select fuel marketers and fleet customers.

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


FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements in this Form 10-Q that are not historical facts, so-called
"forward-looking statements," are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Investors are cautioned
that all forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including
those detailed in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. See "Risk Factors of the Business" in Item 1, "Business," and also
Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations" in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Prior to 2000, the Company was a development stage enterprise and its
efforts were devoted to the research, development and commercialization of
platinum fuel catalysts and nitrogen oxide reduction technologies to reduce
emissions from diesel engines. During December 1999, the Company received its
US EPA registration for its platinum-cerium fuel catalyst product and completed
its first commercial sales.

Product sales and cost of sales were $15,000 and $12,000 respectively for
the second quarter of 2002 versus $75,000 and $51,000 for 2001. Platinum Plus
fuel catalyst sales of $5,000 and $72,000 were recorded in the second quarter of
2002 and 2001, respectively. ARIS product sales of $10,000 were recorded in the
second quarter of 2002.

Included in the 2002 and 2001 second quarter revenue is $4,000 and
$844,000, respectively, of license and royalty income from the RJM Corporation
for the ARIS 2000 NOx reduction technology. In 2001, CDT received a one-time
license payment from RJM for $825,000. CDT earns a royalty on all RJM sales of
the ARIS 2000 system.

Year-to-date sales and cost of sales were $90,000 and $55,000 in 2002
versus $943,000 and $58,000 in 2001. Included in the total year revenue
is $14,000 and $855,000 of ARIS license and royalty revenue for 2002 and 2001
respectively. Year-to-date Platinum Plus FBC sales for 2002 were $17,000 versus
$85,000 in 2001.

General and administrative expenses increased $127,000 to $577,000 in the
second quarter 2002 versus $450,000 in the same period of 2001. For the first
six months of 2002 general and administrative expenses increased $250,000 to
$1,135,000 versus $885,000 in 2001. The rise in spending is related to the
hiring of a Vice President of Sales and Marketing in April 2002, increases in
salaries and marketing related costs associated with the commercialization of
the Platinum Plus FBC. The 2002 year-to-date general and administrative expense
also includes a one-time $95,000 non-cash charge for additional 2001
compensatory stock warrant expense to a third party.

Research and development expenses increased $209,000 to $300,000 in 2002
versus $91,000 in the comparable period in 2001. For the year research and
development costs are up $236,000 to $412,000 versus $176,000 in the same
period in 2001. The increase is attributable to the start of several
verification and certification programs for the Platinum Plus FBC.

Patent filing costs decreased $53,000 to $0 in the second quarter of 2002
versus $53,000 in the comparable 2001 period. During the second quarter of
2002, the Company began capitalizing its patent costs and will amortize such


-9-

costs over the life of the related patent. For the year patent cost has
decreased $73,000 to $27,000 versus a $100,000 in the same six month period in
2001.

Second quarter interest income increased $7,000 in 2002 to $10,000 versus
$3,000 in the comparable period in 2001. For the year interest income increased
$19,000 to $25,000 versus $6,000 in the same period in 2001. This was a result
of an increase in the amount of cash and cash equivalents on hand in 2002. For
the year interest expense declined to $9,000 from $37,000 in the first six
months of 2001 as the result of the repayment of the term loan in January 2002.


LIQUIDITY AND SOURCES OF CAPITAL

Prior to 2000, the Company was primarily engaged in research and
development and has incurred losses since inception aggregating $ 20,908,000
(excluding the effect of the preferred stock dividends). The Company expects to
incur losses through the foreseeable future as it further pursues its
commercialization efforts. Although the Company started selling limited
quantities of product in 1999 and licensing revenue in 2000 and 2001, sales and
revenue to date have been insufficient to cover operating expenses, and the
Company continues to be dependent upon sources other than operations to finance
its working capital requirements.

For the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company used cash of
$1,544,000 and $585,000 respectively, in operating activities.

At June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, the Company had cash and cash
equivalents of $2,147,000 and $4,023,000, respectively. The decrease in cash
and cash equivalents in 2002 was the result of payments made for expenses
related to the stock offering in December 2001, various product certification
programs and the normal on-going operations of the Company. The Company
anticipates incurring additional losses through at least 2002 as it further
pursues its commercialization efforts.

The Company signed an agreement with the RJM Corporation on February 2,
2000 which licensed RJM to sell CDT's ARIS 2000 NOx control system for all
stationary, marine, and locomotive applications in North, Central, and South
America. Under terms of the agreement CDT received an initial $360,000 license
fee and inventory payment.

In April 2001, the Company amended its February 2000 ARIS Stationary NOx
Reduction license agreement with the RJM Corporation. Under the amended terms
of the license agreement, the Company received two fixed non-refundable payments
of $412,500 each on June 1 and September 1 in lieu of potentially receiving
$1,040,000 on the second or third anniversary of the license agreement. The
Company will continue to receive unit royalties on future sales of stationary,
marine or locomotive applications by RJM.

In August 2001, the Company completed a license agreement with Mitsui for
CDT's ARIS 2000 NOx control system for all stationary diesel power generators in
Japan. Under the agreement, the Company received non-refundable upfront license
payments of $495,000 and will receive ongoing standard royalties on each system
sold by Mitsui. Mitsui also has an option to license the ARIS technology for
mobile applications in Japan for an additional license fee.

In November 2000, the Company secured a $1,000,000 privately financed term
loan facility. In December 2000, the Company drew down $500,000 of the term
loan facility and in March 2001 the remaining $500,000 of the term loan was
drawn down. As part of the private placement stock transaction in December
2001, $750,000 of the outstanding term loan plus accrued interest was converted
to common stock. The remaining $250,000 plus accrued interest was paid in cash
in January 2002.

In December 2001, the Company received $3.721 million (net of expenses and
term loan repayment) through a private placement of 2,580,664 shares of its
common stock. In conjunction with the private placement, the Company converted


-10-

all of its Series A Preferred Stock to Common Stock. All of the Company's
Common Stock shares were registered to trade on the AIM of the London Stock
Exchange.

As a result of the Company's recurring operating losses, the Company has
been unable to generate a positive cash flow. In management's opinion, the
Company's cash balance at June 30, 2002 will be sufficient to fund the Company's
operations through the second quarter 2003. The Company may require additional
capital to fund its future operations. Although the Company believes that it
will be successful in its capital-raising efforts, there is no guarantee that it
will be able to raise such funds on terms that will be satisfactory to the
Company. The Company will develop contingency plans in the event future
financing efforts are not successful. Such plans may include reducing expenses
and selling or licensing some of the Company's technologies.


QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

In the opinion of management, with the exception of exposure to
fluctuations in the cost of platinum, the Company is not subject to any
significant market risk exposure.

The Company generally receives all income in United States dollars. The
Company typically makes several small payments monthly in various foreign
currencies for patent expenses, product tests and registration, local marketing
and promotion and consultants.
