NETSOL TECHNOLOGIES, INC. REVISES GUIDANCE FOR FISCAL 2005

Company Positioned for Approximately 80 Percent Organic Revenue Growth and

Continued Profitability During Fiscal 2005

Calabasas, CA - December 17 , 2004 - NetSol Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:NTWK), a developer of proprietary software applications and provider of information technology (IT) services, today announced revised guidance for fiscal 2005. Based on improved performance across all business units and increased demand for its products and services worldwide, management issued revised guidance in excess of $10 million in revenue for 2005, as compared to $5.75 million for the same period ending June 30, 2004. Management expects to continue its profitability trend through fiscal 2005 with earnings per share (EPS) of approximately $0.05 versus a loss of $0.38 per share for fiscal 2004.

“Over the past year, we closely managed revenue growth while focusing on strategic technology investment, controlled cash flow, and implementation of corporate-wide best practices,” said NetSol Chairman Najeeb U. Ghauri. “NetSol’s new joint venture is validation that we are firmly positioned to leverage this sound foundation for dramatic organic growth. We expect revenue from the new company to increase slowly during the first twelve months and then significantly impact our top and bottom line during the second twelve months. We believe this agreement will have more impact on NetSol than any agreement signed to date.”

“Across the board we are seeing demand throughout all areas of our business, including enterprise software applications and services, IT consulting, and a significant increase in our wireless broadband and telephony products and services for commercial and retail markets within Pakistan,” continued Ghauri. “Our backlog provides the confidence that we will meet or exceed guidance while our pipeline indicates that our ability to provide exceptional breath and depth of software and services will continue to be key success drivers moving into fiscal 2006.”

In November 2004, the company reported its first profitable quarter, along with record revenue growth of 112 percent. In early December NetSol announced that it had been recognized by the Carnegie Mellon Software Engineering Institute (SEI) at Level 4 of SEI’s Capability Maturity Model (CMM). This status is awarded only to premiere, global software developers that successfully implement strict quantitative quality and productivity goals for both software products and processes. Fewer than two percent of U.S. software organizations are currently rated CMM Level 4 or higher.
