Commenting on the 2007 performance, President Dean Blythe said, “In 2007, the environment faced by our Shopper business was the most difficult we have seen since we went public in 1993. Given the magnitude and increasing rate of revenue decline throughout 2007, the actions we took on the cost side were insufficient to minimize the damage from the revenue shortfall. While Direct Marketing showed steady top line growth throughout 2007, it was at a rate less than we believe we can generate from this business over the longer term. Our 2007 combined revenues declined 1.8%, with operating income down 11.4%, and earnings per share down 9.4%.”

Discussing the fourth quarter performance of individual business segments, Doug Shepard, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, said, “Direct Marketing revenue was up 4.1%, with EBITDA up 2.5% and operating income up 3.4% compared to the prior year’s fourth quarter. Our high tech/telecom and select verticals both had strong year-over-year double-digit revenue growth in the quarter, and our financial vertical had growth in the low-single digits over the prior year’s fourth quarter. Our retail vertical was down in the low-single digits, while the pharma/healthcare market showed a high-single digit revenue decline driven by difficult year-over-year comparisons in the healthcare segment of this vertical.”

Turning to Shoppers fourth quarter performance, Shepard said, “The Shoppers negative performance trend continued, with revenue down 15.8%, EBITDA down 22.3%, and operating income down 25.3% from the fourth quarter of 2006. We continue to face difficult revenue environments in California and Florida. As we indicated last quarter, the impact has become more pronounced throughout the year, and has affected virtually all revenue categories. We are continuing to reduce our cost base to reflect current revenue levels.”

Concluding, Blythe said, “Our earnings decline in 2007 was driven by the performance of our Shoppers business in a very difficult environment. And while Direct Marketing had a respectable year in 2007 given comparisons to others in the market, we did not generate strong enough revenue growth or any profit growth from this business to offset the weakness in our Shoppers segment.”

“We are continuing to streamline our businesses to become more efficient, reduce costs, and further improve the delivery of our services. As we look to 2008, we are all facing uncertain economic times. Based on what we know today, we do believe we will achieve better revenue and profit performance in Direct Marketing in 2008 than we delivered in 2007. We do not believe, however, that the Shoppers revenue environment in 2008 will improve in any meaningful fashion given the current cyclical issues impacting the California and Florida markets, and may in fact deteriorate from the current levels.”

“The fundamental services we provide in each of our businesses are essential to customers in any economic environment and even more so in uncertain economic times. Even in this environment, our businesses continue to be strong generators of cash, with $105.4 million of free cash flow in 2007. We will be vigilant in 2008 to respond quickly to market conditions and optimize the performance of and cash generation from each of our businesses.”

Fourth quarter corporate events:

• Harte-Hanks paid a regular cash dividend of 7.0 cents per share in every quarter of 2007. On January 29, the Company announced a 7% increase in the quarterly dividend to 7.5 cents per share, effective with the dividend payable March 14, 2008 to shareholders of record on February 29, which is the thirteenth dividend increase since the Company’s 1993 IPO.

• Harte-Hanks purchased 3.6 million shares of its common stock in the fourth quarter bringing the full year 2007 repurchase total to 8.4 million shares. On January 29, the Company announced that the Board had increased the share repurchase authorization by 12.5 million shares, bringing the total remaining repurchase authorization to approximately 15.2 million as of January 15, 2008.

In that event, our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity could be materially adversely affected and investors in our securities could lose part or all of their investments. These risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors include, without limitation, (1) international, domestic, regional and local economic and business conditions, including market conditions in California and Florida that may impact local advertising expenditures in our Shoppers publications, (2) the demand for our services by clients and prospective clients, including the willingness of existing clients to maintain or increase their spending and our ability to predict changes in client preferences, (3) the financial condition and marketing budgets of our clients, (4) economic and other business factors that impact the industry verticals that we serve, including any consolidation of clients and prospective clients in these verticals, (5) our ability to manage and timely adjust our level of personnel and capacity and to otherwise effectively service our clients, (6) the impact of competition and our ability to continually improve our processes and to develop and introduce new products and services in a timely and cost-effective manner, (7) our ability to protect our data centers against security breaches and other interruptions in our operations and to protect sensitive personal

The forward-looking statements in this press release and our related earnings conference call are made only as of the date hereof and we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statement, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future.

Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

In this press release and our related earnings conference call, the company intends to provide investors with a better understanding of operating results and underlying trends to assess the company’s performance and liquidity. Harte-Hanks evaluates its operating performance based on several measures, including the non-GAAP financial measures of (1) free cash flow, defined as net income, plus depreciation and amortization, plus stock-based compensation (tax-effected), less capital expenditures, and (2) EBITDA, defined as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. Harte-Hanks believes that free cash flow and EBITDA are useful supplemental financial measures for investors because they facilitate investors’ ability to evaluate the operational strength of the company’s business. Free cash flow and EBITDA, however, are not calculated in accordance with GAAP and they should not be considered substitutes for net income as an indicator of operating performance. A quantitative reconciliation of free cash flow and EBITDA to net income is found in the tables attached to this release.
