Kelso Technologies Inc.: Financial Results for the Second Quarter Ended February 28, 2011

James R. Bond, CEO and President of the Company (TSX VENTURE:KLS) reports that
the Company has released its unaudited consolidated financial statements for the
three and six month periods ended February 28, 2011.


Results of Operations

The results for the three and six months ended February 28, 2011 are indicative
of a revitalized company establishing a product-for-sale business infrastructure
that can reliably supply its customers in the railroad industry. Kelso commenced
sales, assembly production and distribution of its external constant pressure
valves from Bonham, Texas in January 2011. Initial infrastructure investment has
been costly but is expected to become more effective, efficient and economic as
productive systems mature over the next 12 to 24 months.


The Company recorded a loss for the three month period ended February 28, 2011
in the amount of $238,391 against revenue of $384,806 compared to a loss of
$57,762 against revenue of $1,572 for the three months ended February 28, 2010.


Kelso's year-to-date results record a loss for the six month period ended
February 28, 2011 of $468,113 against revenue of $500,728 compared to net income
of $189,588 against revenue of $27,711 for the same period last year. At
February 28, 2010 the forgiveness of $438,510 of debt by related parties and
shareholders provided the reported net income.


Factors in the year-to-date loss include:



--  Non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $93,259 for incentive stock
    options granted during the quarter and amortization of $4,828. 
--  Accounting and legal costs which totaled $63,005. These costs were high
    due to financing activities and audit requirements. 
--  Rent for facilities in Lisle, Illinois and Bonham, Texas totaled
    $17,577. 
--  Product liability insurance totaled $15,917. 
--  Research and development costs rose to $86,017 and represented
    expenditures on the Company's new manway securement system ("MSS") and
    the new product development laboratory in Lisle, Illinois. 
--  Staffing production and marketing operations resulted in salaries and
    benefits of $105,955. 
--  Travel and marketing costs were higher as the Company has undertaken a
    full scale marketing program to increase customer awareness of products.



Gross profit was maintained at 30%. It is expected to improve as order volumes
scale upwards and the Company can realize economies of scale from its assembly
production process. Cost control and minimization is paramount to the Company's
future production strategy.


Kelso held cash deposits of $256,068 against outstanding customer orders. For
reporting purposes these deposits have been recorded as deferred revenue on the
balance sheet at February 28, 2011 until the products are distributed in future
periods.


Liquidity, Capital Resources and Shareholder Equity

At February 28, 2011, the Company had cash on deposit in the amount of
$1,540,737; accounts receivable in the amount of $268,121; HST receivable of
$53,304 and prepaid expenses and inventory of $188,156 compared to cash on
deposit of $284,207; accounts receivable of $142,834; HST receivable of $28,933
and prepaid expenses of $17,690 at August 31, 2010.


The working capital position of the Company at February 28, 2011 was $1,520,235
which includes $14,530 due to related parties and $256,068 in deferred revenue
representing deposits on product purchase orders received compared to working
capital of $91,950 which includes $111,344 due to related parties and a $75,000
note payable at August 31, 2010.


Shareholder equity improved to $1,695,890 at February 28, 2011 compared to
$128,873 at August 31, 2010. Total assets improved to $2,225,973 at February 28,
2011 compared to $510,587 at August 31, 2010.


Subsequent to the quarter end Kelso focused its strategic plan on product sales
of existing patented technologies and suspended its interest in research and
development. Business analysis, budget uncertainties and intellectual risks
underlay the suspension of Kelso's interest in the development of
nanotechnology-based anti corrosion coatings in March 2011. The Company may
revisit this potential product in the future.


Outlook

New financial, marketing and production capabilities have greatly improved the
business prospects for the Company. Kelso will continue to engineer; market,
sell, produce and distribute proprietary mechanical products designed to provide
safer containment systems to reduce the risk of environmental harm due to
non-accidental events in the transportation of hazardous commodities via
railroad tank cars in North America.


Kelso commenced commercial scale production and distribution of its external
constant pressure valves in January 2011 in Bonham, Texas. The Company's
products have proven to be relevant and economically valuable to customers. The
Company's marketing initiatives continue to generate a steady flow of new
product orders. 


Marketing initiatives for the MSS have shown very strong customer and government
support confirming the potential for multi-million dollar sales. Strategic plans
are currently being developed and implemented for full scale marketing,
production and distribution of the MSS beginning in the fall of 2011.


The economic recovery of transportation systems in North America; the
enforcement of the United States and Canadian environmental regulations for
shippers of chemical commodities; and the adverse effects of wear and tear on
existing railroad fleets leads management to believe that the railroad industry
will rebound significantly. These factors along with Kelso's reorganization in
2010 and new vendor status in the railroad industry has set the stage for Kelso
to pursue a market made up of over 700 new tank-car builders, major chemical
shippers, repair shops and retrofitters. Large scale adoption of Kelso's product
offerings by these customers should allow the Company to grow its new MSS and
pressure relief valve business successfully over the coming years. The Company
will update, by way of news releases, progress reports in the future.
