ADB SYSTEMS INTERNATIONAL LTD.

On November 12, 2004, ADB Systems International Ltd. (“ADB” or the “Company”) announced interim financial and operational results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2004.  All figures are in Canadian dollars.

ADB reported revenues of $886,000 in the third quarter, a decline of 33 percent when compared to the $1.33 million generated in the second quarter.  In the third quarter of 2003, ADB generated revenues of $1.70 million. Revenues were comprised of software license sales, service fees for software implementation, application hosting, maintenance, support and training, and transaction fees from on-line activities performed for customers.

ADB recorded a net loss for the period of $1.52 million or $0.02 per share.  This compares to a net loss of $1.42 million in the second quarter and a net loss of $590,000 in the same period of 2003.

ADB also recorded an EBITDA loss for the period of $1 million. This compares to an EBITDA loss of $983,000 in the second quarter and a loss of $65,000 in the same period of 2003.

EBITDA loss is defined as losses before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, realized and unrealized gains and losses, goodwill, employee stock option expense, and restructuring charges are calculated.  The Company considers EBITDA loss to be a meaningful performance measure as it provides an approximation of ADB’s operating cash flows.

As at September 30, 2004, ADB held cash and marketable securities of $258,000.  Since the close of the third quarter, ADB has announced that it has raised $520,000 through the issuance of convertible notes and it expects to raise an additional $1 million to $1.5 million this month in new funding through a private placement.

The Company also announced that effective November 15, 2004, it will trade on the OTCBB under the symbol ADBYF.

Furthermore, on or about November 12, 2004, ADB mailed to all registered shareholders its Third Quarter 2004 Report, which is attached to this Form 6-K as Exhibit 3.
