ST. PETERSBURG, FL., FEB. 2, 2004 — Catalina Marketing Corporation (NYSE: POS) today announced that it is reducing its domestic workforce by 6%, or approximately 70 positions. The company anticipates taking a pre-tax restructuring charge related to the workforce reduction of approximately $1 million during its fourth fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2004.

Reductions in personnel will primarily occur during the fourth fiscal quarter in corporate functions distributed across its US operations. The reductions do not include employees within Catalina Marketing Direct Marketing Services, Catalina Marketing Research Solutions or Pacific Media, a Tokyo-based billboard division. The company previously announced its intention to divest those business units.

“We are making reductions in staff based on our goals of streamlining our cost structure while maintaining superior levels of customer support” said Mike O’Brien, Catalina Marketing’s interim chief executive officer. “These actions are intended to improve our business performance in fiscal 2005, as we continue to build the value of the network.”
