CHYRON REPORTS A 70% REVENUE INCREASE AND PROFITABILITY FOR THIRD QUARTER 2004

MELVILLE, N.Y. - NOVEMBER 10, 2004--Chyron Corporation (OTCBB: CYRO) today announced that it was profitable for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2004.

Total revenue for the third quarter ended September 30, 2004 was $6.3 million, up $2.6 million or 70% over the same quarter last year. For the first nine months of 2004, total revenue was $16.9 million, up $2.9 million or 21% over the first nine months of last year. For the first nine months of 2004 international revenue was $3.2 million as compared to $1.3 million for the first nine months of 2003.

Gross margins for the third quarter of 2004 increased to 60% from 54% in the comparable quarter of 2003. For the first nine months of 2004, gross margins were 61% as compared to 55% for the first nine months of 2003. Factors contributing to the increased margins were an increase in software sales which carry higher gross margins than systems, lower materials costs, lower inventory reserves, and the elimination of intangible assets amortization that was incurred in 2003 but not in 2004.

The Company reported a net profit from continuing operations of $0.3 million, or $0.01 per share, for the third quarter, a significant improvement from the net loss from continuing operations of $1.5 million, or $0.04 per share, for the prior year's third quarter. For the first nine months the Company reported a net profit from continuing operations of $0.2 million, or $0.01 per share, as compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $1.8 million, or $0.04 per share, for the first nine months of the prior year.

Michael Wellesley-Wesley, Chyron President and CEO commented: "While we are pleased that the third quarter and year-to-date nine months produced a net profit and a significant growth in revenues over the comparable prior year periods we view this as just the beginning. 2004 is very much a transitional year in which, I believe, we have successfully laid the foundations for sustained recovery and the emergence of Chyron as a leading supplier in the field of high quality software-based real time graphics creation and graphics content management tools for both our core Broadcast television customer base and the exciting and fast growing new world of Dynamic Digital Displays."

"For the global Broadcast industry High Definition TV has now arrived and our new Duet HyperX HD, high definition character generator was delivered to major broadcasters in the third quarter, including Turner Entertainment and the Fox Stations Group. The HyperX is the first high definition character generator with absolutely no compromise in performance and it has

been extremely well received by customers and industry commentators alike (The HyperX won a Broadcast Engineering Magazine Pick Hit Award at 2004's NAB industry trade show). In September the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, at its 2004 Primetime Emmy Awards, awarded Chyron the Academy's Philo T. Farnsworth Corporate Achievement Emmy for outstanding achievement in engineering development for the Company's invention and development of the character generator."

"Chyron's intellectual property and strong reputation as a technology innovator in the field of broadcast quality graphics software has facilitated our entry into the booming Dynamic Digital Display and Security Alert markets with the recent launch of our ChyTV product line. We are very excited by the opportunities we see in these new markets and we will continue to aggressively seek out new applications areas for our software while maintaining a strong focus on the priority of continuing to deliver cost effective solutions to our core Broadcast customers", added Mr. Wellesley-Wesley.

The $0.2 million net profit for the first nine months of 2004 included a $0.2 million gain on the sale of marketable securities in the first quarter of 2004, and the $1.8 million loss from continuing operations for the first nine months of 2003 included a $0.6 million write-off in the third quarter of 2003 of an investment in and note receivable from a former subsidiary company and a $0.2 million loss in the first quarter of 2003 from impairment of marketable securities.

Interest expense was $0.1 million in the third quarter of 2004 and $0.3 million for the first nine months of 2004, down from $0.5 million in the third quarter of 2003 and $1.5 million for the first nine months of 2003. Net loss from discontinued operations [the Company's former Chyron UK Holdings Ltd. and its Pro-Bel subsidiary] for the third quarter of 2003 was $0.7 million or $0.01 per share and for the first nine months of 2003 was $0.7 million or $0.02 per share.
