MTS Receives NASDAQ Notice of Regaining Listing Compliance

Ra’anana, Israel –March 18, 2010 – MTS – Mer Telemanagement Solutions Ltd. (Nasdaq Capital Market: MTSL), a global provider of business support systems (BSS) for comprehensive telecommunication management, telecommunications expense management (TEM) solutions and customer care & billing (CC&B) solutions, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and the year ended December 31, 2009.

Revenues for the fourth quarter of 2009 were $2.7 million, compared with revenues of $1.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2008. Revenues for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2009 were $11.4 million, compared with revenues of $8.8 million in the 2008 twelve month period.

Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2009 was $168,000 or ($0.04) per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $921,000 or ($0.28) per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2008. Net loss for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2009 was $877,000 or ($0.20) per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $960,000 or ($0.30) per diluted share for the 2008 twelve month period.

As of March 2, 2010, a one-for-two reverse stock split of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares went into effect following the approval of our shareholders at an extraordinary general meeting.  All numbers of our ordinary shares and earnings per share set forth have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split.

The results for the three and twelve month periods ended December 31, 2009 include the operations of the AnchorPoint business that was acquired in December 2008. The results for the twelve months period ended December 31, 2008 include a capital gain of approximately $382,000 from the sale of our ownership interest in cVidya Networks Inc.

“Although we are disappointed with our operating loss, MTS was able to generate positive cash flow of $558,000 during 2009. The gap between our operating loss and positive cash flow is mainly due to the delay we face in revenue recognition due to the product implementation processes in connection with our sales,” said Lior Salansky, President of MTS. “During 2009, MTS implemented a cost reduction plan to improve operating results. In addition to achieving operational efficiencies, we managed to grow our new orders bookings during the second half of 2009 by 30% compared to the first half of the year.”

“We believe that the significant backlog with which we started in January 2010, together with the potential change in market conditions and our increased sales and marketing efforts during 2010 will assist us to overcome the unstable economic environment,” concluded Mr. Salansky.

On March 16, 2010 the Company received a notice from The NASDAQ Stock Market stating that the minimum bid price of the Company's ordinary shares has been at $1.00 or greater for 10 consecutive business days and that the Company has regained compliance with NASDAQ Marketplace Listing Rule 5550(a)(2).
