Date: April 2, 2004 TelVue Corporation By: /s/ Frank J. Carcione Name: Frank J. Carcione Title: President and Chief Executive Officer EXHIBIT INDEX Exhibit No. Description 99.1 Press release, dated April 2, 2004. EXHIBIT 99.1 News Release Mt. Laurel, New Jersey April 2, 2004 TelVue Corporation to Shift its Business Focus in Response to Changing Cable TV Technology. Recent Loss of Major Customer Points Out Necessity. TelVue Corporation of Mt. Laurel, NJ was notified in writing on March 30, 2004 by Adelphia Communications of Greenwood Village, CO. that Adelphia will be discontinuing the use of TelVue's telephone based Pay Per View ordering service. According to Adelphia, it is their intention to use alternative technology for Pay Per View ordering. It is anticipated that the discontinuation of TelVue's services will take effect on or about June 30, 2004. According to TelVue Corporation President, Frank J. Carcione, Adelphia's business represents approximately 25 percent of TelVue's Pay Per View total ordering revenues. Mr. Carcione stated, "while the loss of Adelphia's business will not have a material adverse long-term effect on TelVue's operations, it will certainly affect TelVue's ability to remain profitable for the near term." TelVue's Pay Per View telephone ordering method was developed in the 1980's to service one-way analog cable systems. Currently, cable systems are increasingly shifting to digital cable and two-way ordering systems utilizing the set-top box. Mr. Carcione stated, "TelVue has anticipated this trend for several years and has been taking measures to adjust to the potential loss of subscribers' orders and cable systems using its services." Mr. Carcione further stated, "TelVue Corporation has been profitable for the last several years, paid down almost all of its debt and has been actively reinvesting profits into developing new state of the art business lines." Management believes these new business lines may allow TelVue Corporation to open new markets outside the cable industry.
