Press Release

Creative Vistas Expects Record Second Quarter Revenues, Sees Continued Growth in Second Half

Creative Vistas Inc. today announced that it expects to report record revenues for its second quarter ending June 30, 2008.

The Company expects revenues for the second quarter of 2008 to total between $11.6 million and $12.9 million. This would represent an increase of between 21% to 34% from revenues of $9.6 million in the second quarter of 2007. Approximately $1,000,000 of this revenue is expected to be generated from U.S. customers, up sequentially by 233% from $300,000 in the first quarter of 2008.

Dominic Burns, Chief Executive Officer of Creative Vistas, commented, Our expectation for record second quarter revenues is a result of the increasing demand and market acceptance that our Dependable HomeTech (DHT) product offering is having in the U.S. cable industry. As expected, the costs associated with this growth are temporarily impacting our bottom line. However, continued market penetration and revenue growth from the U.S. should enable the Company to achieve profitability on an EBITDA basis for the second half of 2008 and build the foundation for a significant year in 2009 in both revenues and profitability.

EBITDA for the second quarter of 2008 is expected to range between a loss of ($860,000) to ($1.06 million), compared to EBITDA of $975,700 in the second quarter of 2007. EBITDA represents, for any relevant period, income or loss before the following items: income taxes, depreciation of property, plant and equipment, interest expense including amortization of debt issuance costs, and amortization of intangible assets.

As in prior quarters, the Company expects results for the second quarter of 2008 to be affected substantially by adjustments related to its capital structure. For that reason, it believes EBITDA provides a useful tool, in conjunction with measures recognized under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), for gauging the ongoing performance of its operating units. However, the Company does not consider EBITDA an adequate substitute for GAAP-recognized measures.
