ISCO International Reports Preliminary Financial Results for the Fourth Quarter 2007; Market Focus Update

ELK GROVE VILLAGE, IL -- 01/11/2008 -- ISCO International, Inc. (AMEX: ISO), a leading provider of radio-frequency management and interference-control systems for the wireless telecommunications industry, provided preliminary financial results for the fourth quarter 2007.

New orders received during the fourth quarter rose to approximately $4 million. Revenue for the fourth quarter was approximately $3.3 million, with backlog going into the first quarter 2008 increasing to approximately $1.6 million. Deferred revenue related to software contracts increased to approximately $0.3 million.

Final financial results and an investor conference call are expected to be provided during February.

Updates

"We are seeing two macro trend conditions that reinforce our strategic decisions heading into 2008," said Mr. Ralph Pini, Interim CEO of ISCO and a member of the board of directors. "The first is that the international wireless network infrastructure market looks healthier for the types of solutions we provide than domestically for 2008. Our decision to prioritize Europe, Asia and Latin America more aggressively, to complement our domestic business model, appears to be correctly focused. For example, we are prioritizing a 450 MHz opportunity in Latin America right now with our dANF adaptive interference management solution ('AIM') and plan to follow this opportunity with our fully digital DIF platform ('DIF') as we expand into related markets. More information in this area can be found at www.450world.org.

"We view ISCO's AIM family of products as ideally suited for emerging and transitioning CDMA 450 MHz customers in several areas, including the deployment of initial service in challenging areas and re-mining existing spectrum to add data services. We believe the best plan for us is to transition to our next generation DIF platform as we continue to pursue our expansion into the European market," said Mr. Pini. "The re-mining of UMTS at GSM frequencies offers great opportunities for the fully digital DIF platform in Europe, but the most current market data leads us to believe this is more likely to happen commercially in the second part of this year given the slower roll out of this re-mining transition. As we cannot control the overall program speed, we will continue to try to be positioned correctly as this particular market opens up.

"The other macro condition we have noticed is a growing significance of flexible, software-based products and applications for operators in conjunction with conventional hardware-based offerings. Both areas, hardware and software, remain important, and we are indeed committed to being a top supplier of solutions in each category, but we believe there is a shift in significance and focus toward more flexible applications and solutions. These pieces of data reinforce our views from last year when we decided to devote significant energies into international expansion and merge with Clarity Communication Systems Inc.

"We look to discuss these and other items as we progress through the first quarter," said Mr. Pini.
