Dreams, Inc. Announces Quarterly Financial Results

Quarterly Revenue Increased 30% to $7.9 Million

PLANTATION, FL, August 17, 2006 – Dreams, Inc. (DRMS.OB) announced today its financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2007. For the quarter ending June 30, 2006, Dreams, Inc.’s (“Dreams”) total revenue increased 30% to $7.9 million in the first quarter fiscal 2007 versus $6.1 million reported in the first three months of fiscal 2006.

Chief Executive Officer Ross Tannenbaum commented,

“We have seen meaningful revenue growth in our first fiscal quarter each of the previous four-years which confirms that there is a demand for our products throughout the year. Furthermore, we have learned over the years that this is a strategic quarter for the Company; requiring us to begin properly positioning the operating divisions with the right mix and levels of inventory in order to achieve our sales and earnings goals for our all important holiday quarter. While it is clearly our objective to operate profitably each and every quarter, these results met our internal budgets and have us on track to achieve our fiscal year goals. Also, it appears that our investments in infrastructure and new technology platforms predominantly made in our retail segment is the reason for our nominal operating losses in this first fiscal quarter; this need to make additional investments will wane over the next few months and should provide us with our desired outcome.

“Each of Dreams’ primary business units reported strong gains during the quarter. Manufacturing and distribution revenue increased 37% to $4.1 million in the first quarter fiscal 2007 versus $3.0 million in the first three months of fiscal 2006. Net revenues (after eliminating inter-company sales) increased 38% to $3.3 million in the fiscal 2007 period from $2.4 million in the same period last year. Retail operations revenue increased 28% to $4.1 million in the first three months of fiscal 2007 versus $3.2 million in the same period last year. Our internet division recorded a 48% increase in retail sales totaling $3.1 million during the first three months of fiscal 2007 from $2.1 million during the same period in fiscal 2006. Moreover, while retail sales through our company-owned Field of Dreams stores were the same $1.0 million in the first quarter for both fiscal 2007 and fiscal 2006, the same store sales increased 18% during the quarter versus the first three months of fiscal 2006. Finally, our Franchise segment representing the 20 operating Field of Dreams franchised stores provided for a 47% increase in royalty revenue in the period versus the first quarter of fiscal 2006 with same store sales up 12%.

Additional accomplishments and highlights include:

“In June, Mounted Memories launched their new Super Bowl MVP memorabilia product line of one-of-a-kind, high-end sports collectibles including signatures of all 35 living Super Bowl MVPs’. The new product line is the first complete series of Super Bowl MVP signatures ever produced and the first time that all 35 MVPs had signed any product representing every Super Bowl. These exclusive products included 40 limited edition pewter Super Bowl XL Pro-Line helmets sold solely in Field of Dreams® stores across the country and 120 Super Bowl XL Pro-Line helmets and 40 art prints. Additionally, Super Bowl XL Pro- Line helmets and art prints are available at our sister companies prosportsmemorabilia.com and fansedge.com.

“During the quarter, Mounted Memories provided an array of A-list athletes highlighting the Ninth Annual SportsFest sports and entertainment collectibles show. Among the autograph guests were former USC football greats and 2006 NFL first-round draft choices Reggie Bush and Matt Leinart; a large number of current defending World Series champion White Sox players including Paul Konerko, Joe Crede, Jim Thome, Scott Posednik and Mark Buehrle; former baseball greats Luis Aparicio, Minnie Minoso and Steve Carlton; Super Bowl XX Bears Otis Wilson, William Perry and Steve McMichael; Gordie Howe and current Blackhawks Adrian Aucoin and Martin Lapointe; and Ben Gordon of the Bulls,” Tannenbaum concluded.
