INTAC INTERNATIONAL ANNOUNCES STRONG

SECOND QUARTER 2004 EARNINGS

HONG KONG, August 4, 2004 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ – INTAC International, Inc. (Nasdaq: INTN - News; FSE: WKN 805768), an Internet content provider in China providing Chinese students exclusively with a full-range of career development services through its joint venture with China’s Ministry of Education, Beijing Intac Purun Educational Development Ltd. (“Intac Purun”), and its Internet portal, Joyba.com (www.joyba.com), today announced strong earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004.

Revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 were $22.8 million and $31.2 million, respectively, compared to $26.2 million and $34.2 million for the same periods last year. Gross profit increased by $1.2 million to $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $1.1 million for the same quarter in 2003. Gross profit increased by $1.4 million to $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from $1.3 million for the same period in 2003. The gross margin increased by 6.0% to 10.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from 4.2% for the same quarter in 2003. The gross margin increased by 4.7% to 8.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from 3.9% for the same period in 2003.

Income from operations increased by $601,000 to $807,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $206,000 for the same quarter in 2003. Income from operations increased by $451,000 to $165,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from a loss from operations of ($286,000) for the same period of 2003. Income (loss) before income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 was income of $1 million and $483,000, respectively, compared to income of $224,000 and a loss of ($268,000) for the same periods last year.

Net income increased by $649,000 to $873,000 ($0.04 per share) for the three months ended June 30, 2004 from $224,000 ($0.01 per share) for the same quarter in 2003. Net income increased by $622,000 to $354,000 ($0.02 per share) for the six months ended June 30, 2004 from a net loss of ($268,000) (negative $0.01 per share) for the same period in 2003.

The decrease in revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 is attributable to concentrating on higher margin wireless handset products for profitability as opposed to sales volume. Also, we focused our time, resources and management on our career development joint venture with China’s Ministry of Education, Intac Purun, and its Internet portal, Joyba.com, in China. The improvement in profitability in the second quarter of 2004 is primarily attributable to greatly improved gross margins without a proportionate increase in operating expenses. Our income from operations for the three and six months June 30, 2004 included net operating costs of approximately $409,000 and $637,000, respectively, relating to the Internet portal business. Excluding these additional costs relating to Intac Purun, operating results would have improved even further in comparison to the same periods in 2003.

“This has been a record quarter for our Company,” said Wei Zhou, Chairman and CEO of INTAC. “With Intac Purun starting to generate revenue and the greatly improved profit margins from our distribution business, we feel confident that we can achieve our anticipated results in 2004. Our emphasis for the remainder of 2004 and beyond will be on the comprehensive career development services provided through Joyba.com and the student guidance through our Career Service Centers.”

“Our hard work is paying off,” said J. David Darnell, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “Even with the negative impact of start-up costs associated with our Internet portal business, we have managed a record quarter.”
