TEAM, INC. REPORTS THIRD QUARTER RESULTS; RE-AFFIRMS FULL YEAR EARNINGS GUIDANCE

ALVIN, TX, March 31, 2008—Team Inc., (NASDAQ: TISI) today reported net income of $2.9 million, or earnings of $0.15 per diluted share, for its third quarter ended February 29, 2008 and re-affirmed its full year earnings guidance of $1.10 to $1.20 per diluted share. Team’s revenues increased 48% to $108.8 million, and operating profits improved 29% to $6.5 million, compared to last year’s quarter. For the fiscal year through the end of the third quarter, Team’s net income was $14.3 million, or $0.73 per diluted share, which represents a 51% improvement from the corresponding prior year period when net income was $9.4 million or $0.50 per diluted share. Comparing revenues for the fiscal year through the end of the third quarter to the corresponding prior year period, Team’s revenues increased 51% to $334.6 million, and Team’s operating profits improved 52% to $28.8 million.

“We continue to be very pleased with the overall growth of our business from both our acquisitions and our strong organic business development,” said Phil Hawk, Team’s Chairman and CEO.

Team’s Discussion of Third Quarter Performance

Team’s fiscal year 2008 third quarter results included revenues attributable to the recent Aitec and LRS acquisitions of $10.8 million and $3.3 million, respectively. Excluding the effect of the recent acquisitions, Team’s overall revenue growth was $21.4 million, or 29%, compared to the same quarter last year. Revenues for Team’s TCM Division (Team’s inspection and field heat treating service lines; inclusive of Aitec) were $59.1 million for the current period, up $20.5 million or 53% from the same quarter last year. Revenues for Team’s TMS Division (Team’s mechanical service lines of leak repair, hot tapping, fugitive emissions monitoring, field machining, technical bolting and field valve repair; inclusive of LRS) for the current period were $49.7 million, up $15.0 million or 43% from the same quarter last year. The demand across both divisions was wide spread across nearly all regions and service lines and helped by continuing strong market fundamentals.

Operating profit in the third quarter ended February 29, 2008 was $6.5 million, up 29% from the same quarter last year. Operating profit margin as a percentage of revenue was 6% for the quarter, about 1% point lower than the prior year period. The decline in margin reflected lower gross margin that was partially offset by improved SG&A expenses as a percentage of sales.

Gross margin in the third quarter ended February 29, 2008 was $33.6 million compared to $24.1 million in the quarter ended February 28, 2007, an increase of $9.5 million or 40%. Gross margin as a percentage of revenues was 31% in the current quarter compared to 33% in the prior year quarter. Overall, Team’s gross margins as a percentage of revenue was impacted by the current period mix of services in which the lower margin TCM operations comprised a greater percentage of overall sales. TCM Division gross margins as a percentage of revenue for the


quarter were 27%, down from 30% in the same quarter prior year. About half of this decrease was due to the effect of the newer Aitec branches which currently earn lower gross margins than the legacy Team branches. The remainder of the decrease reflects lower gross margins in the legacy branches during this seasonally weak quarter. TMS Division third quarter gross margins as a percentage of revenues were consistent with the prior year period at 36%.

SG&A in the third quarter ended February 29, 2008 was $27.1 million compared to $19.0 million in the quarter ended February 28, 2007, an increase of $8.1 million or 43%. The increase in SG&A was due to the Aitec and LRS acquisitions along with investments in field infrastructure and personnel to support the growth of the business. As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses were 25% versus 26% in the prior year period.

Team Re-Affirms Full Year FY08 Earnings Guidance

Reflecting its continued positive outlook, the company re-affirmed previously issued performance guidance for the full fiscal year ending May 31, 2008. Team expects earnings to be between $1.10 and $1.20 per share which would represent approximately 40% earnings growth for the full year. Reflecting the most recent acquisition of LRS, which closed January 9, 2008, Team’s revenue estimate for the full year has been increased $10 million to approximately $460 million.
