Business Wire, August 3, 2007

PISCATAWAY, N.J. -- EasyLink Services Corporation (NASDAQ: EASY), a leading global provider of outsourced business process automation services that transform manual and paper-based business processes into efficient electronic ones, reported financial results today for the second quarter ended June 30, 2007. During the second quarter EasyLink signed a definitive agreement with Internet Commerce Corporation ("ICC") for ICC to acquire EasyLink. The second quarter results include approximately $0.7 million of expenses related to the planned transaction.

Revenues for the second quarter of 2007 were $19.1 million as compared to $18.9 million during the second quarter of 2006 and $18.8 million in the first quarter of 2007. For the second quarter in a row, the Company's newer Transaction Management Services revenue growth of 38.5% over the 2006 quarter and 7.2% over the prior quarter exceeded the continuing decline in Transaction Delivery Services revenues. Gross margin was 64% in the second quarter of 2007 as compared to 58% in the second quarter of 2006 and 63% in the first quarter of 2007. The favorable 2007 results reflect the full cost savings from our network consolidation program implemented throughout 2006. Net income amounted to $765,000 or $.07 per share including the $0.7 million of transaction expenses related to the proposed sale of the Company. This compares to a net loss of $89,000 or $(.01) per share for the second quarter of 2006 and net income of $296,000 (including approximately $0.8 million of expenses related to the proposed sale) or $.03 per share in the first quarter of 2007.

The Company further reported that it achieved Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") of $2.0 million in the second quarter of 2007 as compared to EBITDA during the second quarter of 2006 of $0.9 million. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, operating cash flows, is attached in addition to a reconciliation to net income (loss) for all periods presented. The Company considers EBITDA to be a financial indicator of its operational strength, its ability to service debt and its capacity to make new investments in its services.

The Company's cash and cash equivalents balance at the end of the second quarter of 2007 was $5.5 million as compared to $6.7 million as of December 31, 2006. For the six months ended June 30, 2007, net cash of $2.0 million was provided from operations while $0.8 million was used for capital expenditures and $2.5 million was used to reduce the Company's outstanding loan balance.

Thomas Murawski, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of EasyLink, said, "I'm pleased with our second quarter's performance where revenues exceeded the top end of our guidance and earnings came in on target including $0.7 million of expenses relating to the sale of our Company. As we previously noted, EasyLink is now reaping the benefits of the cost reduction programs that we implemented in 2006."

For the second quarter of 2007 in comparison to the first quarter of 2007 and the second quarter of 2006, revenues (in thousands) for the Company's services were as follows:
