EXPLANATORY NOTE

        Flexible Solutions International, Inc. (“we,” “us,” and “our”) is filing this Amendment No. 3 to its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB/A (this “Third Amendment”) to amend its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 24, 2005 (the “Original Filing”), subsequently amended and restated in its entirety and filed with the SEC on December 5, 2005 (the “First Amendment”), and thereafter amended in certain sections and filed with the SEC on March 9, 2006 (the “Second Amendment”).

        This Third Amendment is being filed by us in response to a comment from the SEC relating to the disclosure that appears in “Item 7. Financial Statements—Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm” of Part II of our Second Amendment. More specifically, this Third Amendment corrects a typographical error found in the audit report of our independent registered public accounting firm—Cinnamon Jang Willoughby & Company (“CJW”)—which audit report included in the Second Amendment contained two different issuance dates relating to our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004. The audit report filed with the Second Amendment should only have been dated as of February 11, 2005. This Third Amendment serves to correct the typographical error.

        Except for the amended disclosure identified above and as set forth herein, this Third Amendment does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Original Filing, nor modify any of the disclosures contained in the First Amendment or the Second Amendment, or in the accompanying financial statements and notes thereto.

        This Third Amendment should be read in conjunction with our periodic filings made with the SEC subsequent to the date of the Original Filing, including any amendments to those filings. In addition, in accordance with Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and certain other rules, this Third Amendment includes updated certifications from our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

        This Amendment No. 3 to the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB/A for the year ended December 31, 2004 (“Annual Report”), contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, those statements relating to development of new products, our financial condition, our ability to increase distribution of our products, integration of businesses we acquire and disposition of any of our current business. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “continue,” “plans,” “intends,” or other similar terminology. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is anticipated or forecasted in these forward-looking statements due to numerous factors, including, but not limited to, our ability to generate or obtain sufficient working capital to continue our operations, changes in demand for our products, the timing of customer orders and deliveries and the impact of competitive products and pricing. In addition, such statements could be affected by general industry and market conditions and growth rates, and general domestic and international economic conditions.

        Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable and achievable, such statements involve risks and uncertainties and no assurance can be given that our actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements. Except as otherwise required by applicable securities laws, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances or any other reason, after the date of this Annual Report.

PART II

Item 7.      Financial Statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the board of directors and stockholders of
FLEXIBLE SOLUTIONS INTERNATIONAL, INC.:

        We have audited the consolidated balance sheet of Flexible Solutions International, Inc. as at December 31, 2004 and 2003 and the consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended. The consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements.

        We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

        In our opinion the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the company as at December 31, 2004 and 2003 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2004 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

        As described in note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Flexible Solutions International, Inc. as of December 31, 2004 and 2003 and for the years then ended have been restated.

        On February 11, 2005 (September 30, 2005 as to the effects of the restatements described in note 3), we reported separately to the shareholders of Flexible Solutions International, Inc. on consolidated financial statements for the same period, audited in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
