Brand spending picked up in late March, resulting in sequential quarterly POPS revenue growth of 16%. The revenue increase, in conjunction with lower operating expenses, resulted in a modest profit of $23,818. The current quarter should show an acceleration in the quarterly year-to-year POPS revenue growth rate. With respect to the fourth quarter, at this juncture we do not have good visibility as to what POPS revenue will be. We have four and one-half months of selling time remaining for business which can be executed in the fourth quarter." - more - Insignia Systems, Inc. * 6470 Sycamore Court North, Maple Grove, MN 55369 * Phone 763-392-6200 * Fax 763-392-6222 http://www.insigniasystems.com * email: info@insigniasystems.com July 16, 2003 INSIGNIA SYSTEMS, INC.
