OUTLOOK

Kelso continues to grow as a reliable supplier of high-quality specialized
railroad service equipment. Our priority is to continue to build the quality of
our brand and business in railroad hazmat applications while seeking additional
business growth markets for our products. 


The key focus of our business model is to assess and develop innovation
opportunities based on industry inputs; the design and qualification of new
industrial products that address the demanding design criteria that our
customers require; and the production and delivery of the best available service
equipment possible for tank cars used in commercial hazmat and non-hazmat
applications. 


Under our business development plan implemented in 2010 Kelso reached the key
milestone of profitability from operations during the four month period ended
December 31, 2012. We have sustained this earnings trend for the first nine
months ended September 30, 2013. Earnings growth is expected to continue as
orders delivered or to be delivered in 2013 are currently approaching our
$12,000,000 target for the year. 


At the date of this report our assets remain unencumbered as we carry no
interest-bearing debt. We are well financed and our working capital has risen to
approximately $6,000,000. From these financial resources we continue to invest
in new product development; independent lab testing and outside design
engineering services; new patent applications; enhanced Tier 1 regulatory
disclosure and listing strategies in Canada and the United States; more
efficient accounting systems and controls; and pre-sales production capability
for our KKM products.


A new 40,000 square foot facility is scheduled to commence construction in early
December 2013 and be completed in June 2014. Based on customer inputs and demand
for products the new facility is custom designed to produce high volumes of our
EPRV, KKM, bottom outlet valves and several new products that are being
developed. The new facility is expected to be able to generate $50 million to
$100 million in annual revenue once constructed. 


Our strategic investments continue to improve our revenue performance, profit
margins and the value of our Company. Although we have many challenges ahead we
are extremely optimistic about the prospects of our future business
opportunities. We anticipate consistent revenue growth as more new products come
to market. Customer adoption of Kelso products is being fueled by their
confidence that Kelso can reliably supply new technology solutions with proven
economics and qualitative advantages over our competition.
