FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

 

SOURCINGLINK ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

 

SAN DIEGO, CA, NOVEMBER 3, 2003, — SourcingLink.net, Inc. (OTC BB: SNET.OB), a provider of business-to-business merchandise eSourcing, today announced the results for its fiscal 2004 second quarter and six months, ended September 30.

 

Net revenues for the second quarter were $421,000, compared to $719,000 in the same period a year ago. The net loss for the three-month period ended September 30, 2003 was $433,000, or $0.04 a share, compared to a net loss of $510,000, or $0.05 a share, a year ago. For the six-month period ended September 30, 2003, net revenues were $948,000, compared to $1,625,000 in the prior fiscal year’s first six months, and the operating loss in the first six months of fiscal year 2004 was $802,000, compared to an operating loss of $889,000 in last year’s first six months. The net loss for the six month period ended September 30, 2003 was $804,000, or $0.08 a share, compared to a net loss of $789,000, also $0.08 a share, in the same period last year.

 

The decline in net revenues for the three and six-month periods as compared to the same periods in the prior year is due to a lower level of services activity in the current fiscal year, primarily associated with the successful completion in the first part of fiscal 2004 of the services work under a multi-year project for Carrefour S.A. The decrease in services under the Carrefour contract was partially offset by increases in non-Carrefour services revenue. The Company’s six-month operating loss of $802,000 was approximately $90,000 less than the operating loss in the first six months of the prior year as cost reductions undertaken by the Company in the latter part of fiscal year 2003 offset the impact of the lower level of revenue this year. The difference in the operating loss and the net loss in the prior year’s six-month period was primarily due to a one-time gain of $98,000 recognized upon the June 2002 closure of the Company’s non-operating subsidiary, of which $86,000 was due to cumulative foreign currency translation amounts.

SourcingLink’s Chairman and CEO Marcel van Heesewijk said, “SourcingLink is positioned to pursue several market opportunities for its solution, but sales cycles remain lengthy. Accordingly, we recently announced our plans to take the Company private and eliminate the substantial costs associated with being a public company. We believe this step is critical to our future, as a company of our size and resources cannot currently afford the costs and expenses to maintain our public company status. Further, this step gives our smaller stockholders a means of cashing out their shares of our common stock without having to pay any brokerage fees.”

 

Mr. van Heesewijk added, “We look forward to continuing our pursuit of market opportunities. We have begun a pilot project for MySourcingCenter® with a new prospect and, related to our agreement with the WorldWide Retail Exchange, are working on a pilot phase for our services work in a new location with a current customer. With the retail industry beginning to standardize electronic data formats globally and establish standard data pools, we believe the coming 12 to 18 months will see the beginning of more electronic links between retailers and their suppliers, and we will continue to pursue our place in that market.”

 

This press release is not a solicitation of a proxy or an offer to acquire any shares of the Company’s common stock. Information concerning the proposed going private transactions will be included in the proxy statement to be furnished to stockholders. SourcingLink has filed a preliminary proxy statement covering the proposed transactions with the Securities and Exchange Commission (www.sec.gov), and will mail a copy of the final proxy statement to its stockholders prior to the annual meeting, which is anticipated to be held towards the end of this calendar year. Stockholders are advised to read the proxy statement carefully because it will contain important information about the proposed going private transactions, the persons soliciting proxies, and their interests in the transactions and related matters.
