The author considers abelian factor categories of the category of short exact sequences over an exact category $\mathscr{C}$. The main theorem states that if $\mathscr{C}$ has enough projectives, constituting a full subcategory $\mathscr{P}$, the homotopy category $\mbox{Ext}(\mathscr{C})$ of short exact sequence is equivalent to the category $\mathbf{mod}(\mathscr{C}/[\mathscr{P}])$ of finitely presented $\mathscr{C}/[\mathscr{P}]$-modules. Dual versions of this fact, and some applications are given. For example, if $\mathscr{C}$ has enough injectives, with corresponding full subcategory $\mathscr{I}$, the existence of almost split sequences in $\mathscr{C}$ is related to a Nakayama functor $\mathscr{C}/[\mathscr{P}]\to\mathscr{C}/[\mathscr{I}]$. Reviewer's remark: The equivalence $\mathrm{Ext}(\mathscr{C})\approx\mathbf{mod}(\mathscr{C}/[\mathscr{P}])\approx\mathbf{mod}(\mathscr{C}/[\mathscr{I}])$ plays an essential role in the concept of triad (see the formula (26) in the reviewer's paper [\textit{W. Rump}, J. Algebra 280, No. 2, 435--462 (2004; Zbl 1079.16008)] and [\textit{W. Rump}, Commun. Algebra 33, No. 1, 73--95 (2005; Zbl 1081.16027)], proof of Theorem~3). For the existence of almost split sequences, see Zbl 1079.16008, Theorem~5.
