SR TELECOM RELEASES Q2 2007 RESULTS

MONTRÉAL (QUÉBEC) CANADA — August 9, 2007 — SR Telecom Inc. (TSX: SRX) today announced its unaudited second quarter 2007 results for the three months ended June 30, 2007. All dollar figures are in Canadian funds unless otherwise indicated.

“Our second quarter performance, while clearly an improvement over last year’s results, reflects the delays in manufacturing and deliveries that we encountered during the quarter as we worked to resolve our capital issues,” said Serge Fortin, President and CEO of SR Telecom. “We know that much remains to be done for SR Telecom to regain positive and sustainable momentum, yet it is encouraging that our customers have continued to demonstrate their belief in our ability to design, deliver and deploy high-quality wireless solutions. The additional $45 million in available funds we received through the term loan in early July will enable us to further invest in our WiMAX technology, strengthen our customer relations and execute on our growth strategy.”

Consolidated second quarter results

SR Telecom’s second quarter revenue grew 51% to $22.4 million from $14.8 million during the same period in 2006, reflecting the ongoing implementation of major contracts in Mexico and Argentina. Operating loss from continuing operations was $13.7 million, a $4.0 million improvement over the $17.7 million operating loss recorded during the same period one year ago. Net loss and comprehensive loss was $14.9 million compared to $17.3 million in 2006.

These improvements–a result of the increase in sales volume, higher margins on equipment sales and a $2.3 million decline in selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses–were offset by a $0.6 million increase in restructuring charges and a $0.7 million rise in research and development expenses. The 2007 restructuring charges relate to the Company’s announced plan to reorganize its internal operations and centralize activities; the R&D increase is a reflection of the additional resources the Company has devoted to the development, delivery and deployment of WiMAX solutions in 2007.

Year-to-date revenue was $45.2 million, up 33.0% from $34.0 million in the first six months of 2006. Operating loss for the six-month period in 2007 was $22.5 million compared to $29.2 million in the same period of 2006. The year-to-date net loss and comprehensive loss was $27.1 million compared to $30.9 million during the first six months in the prior year.

Backlog at June 30, 2007 stood at $27.1 million, the majority of which is expected to be delivered by the end of this year. This compares with $45.4 million at the end of 2006 and $31.3 million at the end of the first quarter of 2007.

Financial position

As announced on July 3, 2007, the Company has entered into an agreement, with a syndicate of lenders comprised of shareholders and lenders, that provides a new term loan of up to $45 million, of which $35 million was drawn immediately. The $10 million balance is available for drawdown for a period of one year from the signing date.

As at June 30, 2007, the Company’s consolidated cash, including restricted cash, was $9.2 million, down from $26.2 million at December 31, 2006 and reflects the use of cash to fund continuing operating activities and capital requirements; it does not include additional funding from the new term loan.
