Steel Vault Corporation Provides Business Outlook for September 2009 Quarter

Revenue in September 2009 Quarter Expected to Increase 60-75% from Prior Quarter

DELRAY BEACH, FL — September 24, 2009 — Steel Vault Corporation (OTCBB: SVUL) (“Steel Vault” or the “Company”), a leading provider of identity security products and services, today announced preliminary results for the quarter ending September 30, 2009 and provided an update on its operations. For the quarter ended September 30, 2009, the Company expects revenue of $550,000 to $650,000, compared to revenue of $343,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, and no revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2008. The Company’s subscriber base at September 30, 2009 is projected to be approximately 14,000, compared to approximately 15,500 subscribers at June 30, 2009. The Company believes its revenue growth is the result of a higher level of subscribers during the quarter ended September 2009 compared to the quarter ended June 2009, and due to its successful customer acquisition strategy, including the migration of its subscriber base to its newer marketing channels, which the Company believes have greater long-term value.

At September 18, 2009, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $150,000 and debt of approximately $750,000, compared to cash and cash equivalents of $505,000 and debt of $635,000 at June 30, 2009. The Company also expects to record a loss from operations in line with its continued marketing and customer acquisition investment, which also caused the decrease in the Company’s net cash position.

William J. Caragol, Steel Vault’s CEO, commented, “We are pleased with the Company’s continued revenue growth in the September quarter and the success of our customer acquisition efforts to date. On that note, we have recently refined our marketing strategy to target customers more selectively, which we believe will increase our retention rates. We believe that the merger with VeriChip Corporation and the formation of PositiveID Corporation will enable us to ramp up our growth while continuing to focus on cost-effectively acquiring new customers and offering them value-added services such as VeriChip’s personal health record.”
