FIND/SVP ANNOUNCES CHANGE TO ITS BOARD OF DIRECTORS

NEW YORK, December 20, 2005—FIND/SVP, Inc. (OTCBB:FSVP), the nation’s only single-source provider of custom business research and analysis, today announced that Martin E. Franklin has resigned from its Board of Directors, but intends to retain his significant equity position in the Company.

As previously reported, Mr. Franklin had informed FIND/SVP’s Board of his intention to resign this year on September 22, 2005. Mr. Franklin serves on the Board of Directors of four publicly-traded companies and has decided to resign from the Board of Directors of the Company in order to comply with the guidelines of Institutional Shareholder Services by limiting his membership to three Boards of Directors for publicly-traded companies. Mr. Franklin’s decision to resign from FIND/SVP’s Board was not related to any disagreement with the Company or its Board of Directors. Further, Mr. Franklin has advised the Company that his resignation is in no way reflective of any changed confidence in the Company or its long-term prospects, and as outlined in his previously delivered letter to the Board of Directors, he fully intends to, in his capacity as a major shareholder, provide counsel and assistance as requested by the Board of FIND/SVP.
