CALABASAS, CA – November 12, 2009 -- NetSol Technologies, Inc. “NetSol” (NASDAQ CM: NTWK) (NASDAQ DUBAI: NTWK), a U.S. corporation providing global business services and enterprise application solutions to private and public sector organizations worldwide, today announced first quarter financial results for fiscal year 2010, for the period ended September 30, 2009.

First Quarter Fiscal Year 2010 Results

·	Revenues totaled $7.6 million

Service fees totaled $3.3 million

License fees totaled $2.6 million

Maintenance fees totaled $1.8 million

GAAP net loss applicable to common shareholders of $264,000, or a loss of less than $0.01 per diluted share, compared to GAAP net income applicable to common shareholders of $1.0 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, in the year ago period. Compared to the prior quarter ended June 30, 2009, fiscal first quarter 2010 quarterly GAAP net loss was reduced by 71%.

·	EBITDA of $1.2 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, versus EBITDA of $2.3 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, in the year ago period. Compared to the prior quarter ended June 30, 2009, fiscal first quarter 2010 quarterly EBITDA increased 117%.

Najeeb Ghauri, NetSol Technologies chairman and chief executive officer, commented, “NetSol began its fiscal year 2010 with continued positive momentum as the company delivered another quarter of double digit top line revenue growth compared to the prior quarter ended June 30, 2009, including a 99% sequential increase in license fees driven by the strength of our core NetSol Financial Suite (NFS). Higher sales, compared to the prior quarter, combined with significant improvements in our fiscal first quarter 2010 gross margin and operating margin, contributed to another significant reduction in GAAP net loss as we approach our targeted breakeven quarterly revenue run rate of $8 million. Fiscal first quarter EBITDA profitability also improved materially, more than doubling compared to the prior quarter ended June 30, 2009. Overall, our revenue and profitability gains reflect our improved execution and the greater leverage we are achieving from our streamlined global operating model.

“We are very optimistic of NetSol’s short-term and long-term outlook as we see strong growth in Asia Pacific as well as the South East Asian emerging markets, while we envision unlimited scope for our niche solutions and services in the Americas from 2010 onwards. Based on the intrinsic value of NetSol’s years of capital investment in its offerings, product maturity and the surge in demand amongst fortune 500 clients worldwide, we believe the company is extremely well positioned globally to become a significant IT company within our space. We are noticing very positive trends of clients interested in acquiring our solutions and services as our turnaround began in the fiscal fourth quarter of 2009. With our new business pipeline for fiscal 2010 continuing to expand, with particular strength in our China, Asia Pacific and Kingdom of Saudi Arabia operations, we are creating new global opportunities as customers in those regions look for asset finance and lending software solutions to meet the various needs of their other international and local operations,” concluded Mr. Ghauri.
