LONDON, ON, Aug. 20 / - Trojan Technologies Inc.

"I am pleased with the growth rate of 17% and, in particular, with the increased diversification of our revenue. We have seen very strong growth in our drinking water and industrial/commercial businesses confirming that our strategies for growth outside our core wastewater business are winning in the marketplace. Order backlog continues to be strong as we reach the mid-point of 2003. We delivered a profit this quarter and are on track to deliver on our revenue and income objectives for the year."
Because the Company has changed its financial year-end from August to December, the second quarter results in this report are compared to the three months and six months ended May 31, 2002, the Company"s third quarter under its previous reporting schedule.
