WPCS REPORTS FISCAL FIRST QUARTER 2009 EARNINGS

Revenues of $28.3 Million
Diluted Earnings Per Share of $0.12


Exton, PA – September 15, 2008 – WPCS International Incorporated (NASDAQ: WPCS), a leader in design-build engineering services for specialty communications systems and wireless infrastructure, today reported results for the fiscal 2009 first quarter ended July 31, 2008.  WPCS reported revenues of $28.3 million for the 2009 first quarter representing an increase of 29.6% from revenues of $21.8 million reported for the corresponding period in the 2008 fiscal year. The increase in revenues during the first quarter of 2009 was driven by a 36.3% increase in revenues from the Company’s specialty communications systems operations and was attributable to several acquisitions completed in earlier periods. WPCS also reported net income of $838 thousand, or $0.12 per diluted share, for the 2009 first quarter ended July 31, 2008 compared to net income of $1.3 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, for the 2008 first quarter ended July 31, 2007.

“We are pleased with our results for the fiscal 2009 first quarter, which met our internal expectations,” stated Andrew Hidalgo, WPCS International Incorporated’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.  “Our revenue continues to grow despite an operating environment that remains somewhat challenging due to economic conditions.  We remain focused on providing high quality services to customers in the specialty communication systems and wireless infrastructure sectors.  Specifically, we continue to see market demand in the specialty communication systems market, which is the largest portion of our business, and remain confident that WPCS is well positioned to continue to capitalize on growth opportunities in this sector.”

Highlights for the first quarter of 2009 included the following:

·  
Revenues from the specialty communication systems segment represented approximately 88% of total revenue in the fiscal 2009 first quarter compared to 84% during the fiscal 2008 first quarter. Revenues from the wireless infrastructure services segment represented approximately 12% of total revenue in the fiscal 2009 first quarter compared to 16% in the fiscal 2008 first quarter.
·  
The backlog of unfilled orders for WPCS was approximately $54 million at July 31, 2008 compared to $31 million at the corresponding period in 2007.
·  
Additionally, the Company’s bid list – representing project bids under proposal for new and existing customers – was approximately $156 million at July 31, 2008 compared to $96 million at July 31, 2007.
·  
WPCS continues to maintain a healthy financial position with approximately $4.0 million in cash and cash equivalents, approximately $28.4 million in working capital and credit facility borrowings of $7.6 million as of July 31, 2008.
