PSYCHEMEDICS CORPORATION ANNOUNCES 3rd QUARTER
RESULTS — RECORD QUARTERLY REVENUE
$0.15 QUARTERLY DIVIDEND DECLARED

Acton, Massachusetts, October 31, 2007 — Psychemedics Corporation (AMEX: PMD) today announced third quarter results for the period ending September 30, 2007. The Company also announced a quarterly dividend of $0.15 per share. This will be the Company’s 45th consecutive quarterly dividend and will be paid on December 17, 2007 to shareholders of record on December 3, 2007.

The Company’s third quarter revenue was $6,463,516, up 1% as compared to $6,379,962 in the third quarter of 2006. Net income was $1,209,609 or $0.23 per share, down 14% from $1,402,953 or $0.27 per share for the same period in 2006. The Company’s revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was $18,677,412, up 6% as compared to $17,628,078 for the comparable period of 2006. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was $3,576,872 or $0.67 per share, a decrease of 4% over the comparable period last year during which the Company earned $3,726,238 or $0.71 per share.

Raymond C. Kubacki, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We are pleased to report record revenue for the third quarter and for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. Our revenue increase was, however, below historical levels and our expectations. The hiring environment for our clients was more active in the third quarter of 2006. The addition of new clients continues to grow at a healthy pace. Third quarter revenue and profit faced a tough comparison with the third quarter in 2006, which was our strongest growth quarter in that year.”

Kubacki continued, “Margins remained strong, with our gross margin still above 60%. Expenses, however, were adversely impacted by increased legal and audit fees. In addition, our tax rate is two percentage points higher than last year, resulting in a decline in net income and earnings per share for the quarter.”

Kubacki concluded, “Our balance sheet remains strong with $8.3 million of cash and short-term investments, no long-term debt and approximately $12.6 million of working capital. We continue to stay focused and are confident in our future growth. Therefore, we are pleased to declare our 45^th consecutive quarterly dividend, demonstrating our Directors’ continued commitment to rewarding shareholders and sharing the financial success of the Company with them as we grow. We continue to focus on building shareholder value while maintaining our dedication to being a lean, profitable, dividend-paying company.”
