Breakaway Communications 631.244.1500 212.590.2554/2555 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Direct Insite Announces Continued Improvement in Operating Results for First Half 2004 Direct Insite adds another Fortune 100 Client for "IOL" services and Reports Reduced Net Loss of $366,000 Compared To $2,323,000 Loss In 2003 Bohemia, N.Y. - August 20, 2004 - Direct Insite Corp (OTC BB:DIRI.OB), a global provider of Electronic Invoice Presentment and Payment ("EIP&P") solutions, today announced its financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004. Revenue from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 was $1,716,000 and $3,822,000, respectively, compared to revenue from continuing operations of $1,958,000 and $3,894,000 for the same periods in 2003. The significant improvement in the net loss for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 compared to 2003 is attributable to gains in the higher margin recurring revenues associated with electronic invoice delivery through the company's Invoices on Line ("IOL") service, offset by reduced revenues from the professional services associated with the continued global deployment of the IOL application service. Direct Insite reduced its loss from continuing operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, 37.8% and 63.2%, to $567,000 and $629,000, respectively, compared to losses of $910,000 and $1,707,000 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003, respectively. The company closed its Platinum Communications, Inc. ("Platinum") operations during the fourth quarter of 2003. Income from the Platinum discontinued operations was $59,000 and $263,000 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, respectively, compared to a loss from discontinued operations of $$343,000 and $616,000 for the same periods in 2003. This resulted in a net loss after taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, of $508,000 and $366,000, respectively, compared to a net loss, after taxes, of $1,253,000 and $2,323,000 for the same periods in 2003. Basic and diluted net loss per share from continuing operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 was $0.17 and $0.22, respectively, compared to basic and diluted net loss per share from continuing operations of $0.25 and $0.46 for the same periods in 2003. The net income per share from discontinued operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 was $0.01 and $0.06, respectively, compared to a net loss per share from discontinued operations of $0.08 and $0.16 for the same periods in 2003. Direct Insite CEO and Chairman of the Board James A. Cannavino said, "We have observed a shift in our business as we are becoming increasingly more efficient in the delivery of the one time custom development activities necessary to generate the higher margin recurring revenues. This is a positive development for our longer-term interests, however, there is a short term impact on our revenue attributable to the reduced one time engineering fees such as we have seen in the second quarter. We are focused on growing the recurring revenues based upon the continued global deployment of the Invoices on Line (IOL) service offering while maintaining strict cost controls. These recurring revenues result from "per invoice transaction fees" derived from our largest customers under multi-year agreements. Therefore, as more of our revenues are derived from such agreements, there is better predictability of our revenue stream. The Company continued to expand the IOL service in the second quarter by adding another Fortune 100 customer. We plan on launching IOL into new geographic areas during the second half of 2004 and to leverage that success into additional opportunities in 2005." Direct Insite offers IOL, a uniquely positioned service offering in the industry, to provide web- based billing and payment system designed to handle the complex invoicing found in today's global business environment. The solution allows Global 1000 companies to receive, route, approve and pay invoices on-line in all major languages and currencies. By automating the traditional paper-based invoicing process, customers now have easy and quick access to line- item billing information, reporting and analytics. With the enhanced level of accuracy provided by IOL, invoice disputes are greatly reduced and overall customer satisfaction is substantially increased. Direct Insite also provides additional service offerings in the form of its patented dbExpress TM technology, a management information tool that allows users to visually data mine large volumes of transactional data via the Internet.
