The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the interim period ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2003.

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

The balance sheet at December 31, 2002 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

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

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

For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Company recorded no tax benefits on its operating loss, as the loss will have to be carried forward and realization of any benefit is uncertain. The offsetting current and deferred provision amounts result from additional deductions claimed on the Company's 2002 federal tax return which was filed during the quarter ended March 31, 2003.

For the six months ended June 30, 2002, U.S. losses were benefitted, as carryback benefits were available. No benefit was provided for foreign losses, thus the tax benefit rate was less than the U.S. statutory rate of 34%.

Inventories are presented net of reserves for excess and obsolete inventories of $318,000 and $280,000 at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively.

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

Marketable equity securities are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at their fair value on the balance sheet, with unrealized gains and losses, net of applicable income taxes of $(9,000) and $(14,000) at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively, reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity. Marketable equity securities are stated at market value, as determined by the most recently published trade price of the securities at the balance sheet date.

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

June 30, 2003

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

The Company has defined a critical accounting policy as one that is both important to the portrayal of the Company's financial condition and results of operations and requires the management of the Company to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments. Estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be perceived with certainty. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments. These estimates may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as the Company's operating environment changes. There have been no material changes or developments in our evaluation of the accounting estimates and the underlying assumptions or methodologies that we believe to be Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates as disclosed in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

The Management's Discussion included in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002 includes discussion of various factors related to the decline in the Company's revenues and items related to the Company's results of operations, liquidity and markets. There have been no significant changes in most of

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

the factors discussed in the Form 10-K and many of the items discussed in the Form 10-K are relevant to 2003 operations; thus the reader of this document should read the Management's Discussion included in Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

The primary sources of Reliability's liquidity have historically been cash provided by operations and working capital. As of June 30, 2003 the Company's working capital was $8.6 million, of which $7.8 million was cash and cash equivalents. Changes in the Company's financial condition and liquidity since December 31, 2002 are generally attributable to the net loss incurred in the six months ended June 30, 2003, and the receipt of a $3.8 million federal income tax refund in May 2003.

Certain ratios and amounts monitored by management in evaluating the Company's financial resources and performance are presented in the following chart. The periods presented that are related to profitability ratios are for the six months ended June 30, and twelve months ended December 31:

During the six months ended June 30, 2003 operating activities generated $850,000 of cash, compared to a net cash outflow of $3.1 million from operations for the comparable period in 2002. The positive cash flow in 2003 is attributable to the receipt, in May 2003, of a federal income tax refund of $3.8 million, resulting from the carryback of the operating loss incurred in 2002. The Company no longer has any recoverable taxes in the periods eligible for carryback.

Net cash provided by investment activities during the first six months of 2003 were $797,000, compared to net outflows of $212,000 during the comparable period in 2002. Net cash provided was primarily proceeds from the sale of the Company's former operating facility in Costa Rica.

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

June 30, 2003

Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 were $86,000 and $212,000, respectively. As a result of the acquisition completed in July 2003 (See Note 8 to the accompanying financial statements), the Company will utilize $559,000 of its available cash in the third quarter of 2003 to fund the purchase price. Working capital and capital expenditure requirements for this new product line are expected to be approximately $250,000 for the remainder of 2003. Additionally, during the second half of 2003, cash operating losses during the initial production start-up and product rollout period are budgeted to be approximately $350,000.

Backlog increased to $177,000 at June 30, 2003, compared to $99,000 at December 31, 2002. The majority of the increase occurred in the Services segment. The current forward-looking forecast indicates that revenues for the third quarter of 2003 will be between $450,000 and $600,000 compared to $807,000 in the third quarter of 2002. Operations for the third quarter of 2003 are forecast to result in a loss of $.22 to $.30 per diluted share.

During the current prolonged downturn in the semiconductor industry, the Company has sustained significant negative financial trends, including substantial decreases in revenues, net income, backlog, and cash flows from operating activities. Key customers have continued to delay or reduce expenditures for the Company's products and services. Management believes such trends may continue in the near term. Throughout this downturn, the Company has continued to restructure its operations and cost structure.

The Company's future strategy is heavily dependent on its ability to sell its newest generation of burn-in and test systems for medium and high-power micrologic devices, the CRITERIA 20. As a result of the current and ongoing downturn of the semiconductor industry, target customers for the CRITERIA 20 have continued to delay capital expenditures for new capacity, and no sales have been made to date. While management believes that the first orders for the CRITERIA 20 will be received in late 2003, no assurances can be made that market demand will return or that market acceptance can be achieved in that time frame.

In an effort to diversify its revenue stream from being so dependent on the highly cyclical semiconductor capital equipment industry, in July 2003 the Company acquired the rights to manufacture and market a light-duty truck after-market product. This product will target a completely different market and customer than our current products and services and should offer the Company some balance in our business that is not affected by our current markets. However, since the product to be offered is completely new, and market acceptance and pricing points are uncertain, no assurances can be made that the product launch will be successful or that significant revenues will be generated.

Considering the results of management's recent cost-cutting and restructuring actions, the Company's limited financial obligations and it current cash balances, management believes that it has sufficient cash to meet its working capital and capital equipment needs through fiscal 2003 and 2004. Depending on the Company's growth, profitability and other factors including market conditions and the impact of the acquisition discussed in Note 8 of the accompanying financial statements, the Company may require additional capital resources after fiscal 2004, or earlier, should the Company experience a significant increase in the level of business activity. There can be no assurances that additional financing will be available when required or that such financing can be obtained on terms satisfactory to the Company.

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

June 30, 2003

Revenues. Revenues for the first half of 2003 of $ 867,000 were 69% lower than the first half of 2002 and 32% lower than the second half of 2002. Compared to the first half of 2002, the revenue declines by business segment were as follows: Testing Products (86%), Services (46%) and Power Sources (21%).

Costs and Expenses. Total costs and expenses in the first half of 2003 decreased by $2 million from the first half of 2002 and by $2.5 million from the second half of 2002. Exclusive of impairment, restructuring and severance charges, the decreases were $1.9 million and $900,000, respectively. Of the $1.9 million decrease from the first half of 2002, $800,000 was in cost of sales; $500,000 in marketing, general and administrative; and $600,000 in research and development. The Company continues to review its cost structure in light of the continued depressed level of business activity. As a result, in April 2003 the Company reduced its Houston-based workforce by 25%, incurring $237,000 in severance-related expenses.

Revenues. Revenues for the second quarter of 2003 were $439,000, down 72% from the second quarter of 2002 and up 3% over the first quarter of 2003. Compared to the first half of 2002, the revenue declines by business segment were as follows: Testing Products (85%), Services (47%) and Power Sources (25%).

Costs and Expenses. Total costs and expenses for the second quarter of 2003 decreased by $900,000 from the comparable 2002 period. Exclusive of $237,000 in severance expenses recorded in 2003, the reduction in expenses was $1.1 million. Of the $1.1 million, cost of sales decreased by $400,000; marketing, general and administrative expenses by $300,000; and research and development by $400,000. Exclusive of the $237,000 severance charge, second quarter marketing, general and administrative and research and development expenditures were $158,000 lower than the amount incurred in the first quarter of 2003. This decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in payroll and benefit costs associated with the previously-mentioned workforce reduction in April 2003.

Income Taxes. No tax benefit was recorded on the operating loss incurred in 2003, as no carryback benefits were available and realization of tax benefits in future periods is uncertain. In the prior year, the Company was able to offset its taxable loss against taxes paid in prior years and file a refund claim.

There have been no material changes in the market risk disclosures reported in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed for the year ended December 31, 2002.
