Business Wire, August 10, 2006

SAN DIEGO -- iVOW, Inc. (NASDAQ:IVOW), a provider of disease management services for the treatment of chronic and morbid obesity, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2006.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2006, the Company reported a net loss of $589,000, or ($0.21) per basic and diluted share on revenues of $746,000, compared with a net loss of $514,000, or ($0.46) per basic and diluted share, on revenues of $253,000 for the corresponding quarter of 2005. Included in the reported net loss was a gain from discontinued operations of $150,000, compared to a gain from discontinued operations of $129,000 for the second quarter in 2005. The Company noted that $340,000 of the increase in revenue came from its Sound Health Solutions (SHS) subsidiary, which the Company acquired in November 2005.

For the six months ended June 30, 2006, iVOW reported a net loss of $1,487,000, or ($0.57) per basic and diluted share on revenues of $1,350,000, compared with a net loss of $1,478,000 or ($1.34) per basic and diluted share, on revenues of $493,000 for the same period of 2005. SHS revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $665,000.

During the quarter, the Company completed a warrant exchange financing program, which generated net proceeds of $1,062,000. At the end of the quarter, the Company reported cash and cash equivalents of $1,617,000. The Company anticipates that it will need to raise additional capital sometime in the fourth quarter of 2006.

Dr. Michael Owens, President and CEO of iVOW, said "We have now had four consecutive quarters of increasing revenue. We are excited about the opportunities before us as our business continues to grow reflected by a 24% increase in revenue over the previous quarter. This is attributable to additional contributions from our lead-in consulting products as more hospitals have contacted us subsequent to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services' (CMS) ruling in February providing coverage for bariatric surgery."
