Impreso, Inc. Reports Third Quarter Results of Operations

COPPELL, TX -- 07/15/2005 -- Impreso, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZCOM), which through its subsidiaries is involved in (1) the manufacture and distribution of paper and film hard copy imaging products for commercial and home office applications; (2) the development of eCommerce initiatives; and (3) natural spring water bottling and distribution, today reported its third quarter operating results.

The Company reported a net loss of $574,000 or $(0.11) per share in the three months ended May 31, 2005, compared with net income of $348,000 or $0.07 per share, in the prior-year period. Net sales in the most recent quarter decreased $5.6 million, or 22.2%, to $19.8 million, compared with net sales of $25.5 million in the third quarter of FY 2004.

For the nine months ended May 31, 2005, the Company reported a net loss of $2.5 million or $(0.48) per share, compared with net income of $1.1 million or $0.21 per share, in the corresponding period of the prior year. For the nine months ended May 31, 2005, the Company's net sales decreased 25% to $58.4 million, compared with net sales of $77.9 million in the first nine months of FY2004.

"The decrease in net income and net sales for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2005, as compared to the corresponding periods of the prior year was attributable to the reduction of continuous business forms purchases by a key customer. This event, combined with our unification of the Greencastle, Pennsylvania, and Kearneysville, West Virginia, operations in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, and start up of the bottled water plant adversely affected our financial position and results of operations," stated Marshall Sorokwasz, President and Chief Executive Officer of Impreso, Inc.

"In June and July 2005, we executed contracts for sale on our Greencastle, Pennsylvania, and Kearneysville, West Virginia plants," continued Mr. Sorokwasz. "We combined these operations into a larger facility in Chambersburg last year and have had these buildings on the market for sale since that time. We intend to consummate these transactions in late August and early September. The sale of these plants and the elimination of the mortgage payments will improve our monthly cash flow, and a portion of the profits will be applied to reduce the outstanding balance on our revolving line of credit," concluded Mr. Sorokwasz.
