Steve Komar, CEO of WidePoint, said, “The acquisition of iSYS in early January has provided us with a high growth subsidiary and a major point of inflection for WidePoint. Now representing more than 50% of the company’s revenue, iSYS’ Mobile Telecom Managed Services offering is opening new customer opportunities and providing an expansion in federal business opportunities. We believe there are more than 40 federal agencies that can benefit from our services with about 14 of those federal agencies presently engaged through the GSA in reviewing and showing near term interest in procuring such managed services. Revenue in this segment was up 500% year over year this quarter, and we believe as we migrate from the early stage adoption of these services and expand the offerings federal government wide this growth should continue into the foreseeable future.

“With the recent acquisition of Protexx, WidePoint has significantly expanded our core security offerings into the commercial sector. This broadens our portfolio of services to our existing base of current federal clients and provides a new customer base for us,” said Komar.

WidePoint CFO Jim McCubbin said, “All three of our segments reported operating profits for the second quarter of 2008 with the growth opportunities and outlook within our two niche segments continuing to look promising. The $4.1 million capital raise and subsequent expansion of our sales and marketing efforts should provide a positive return on investment as we scale both the Mobile Telecom and PKI segment opportunities. During the second quarter of 2008, WidePoint increased its total net cash flow for the quarter to $2,489,400. We ended the quarter with working capital of approximately $3.3 million and cash and equivalents of approximately $4.8 million.”

WidePoint will hold a conference call with CEO Steve Komar and senior members of the management team today, August 14, 2008 at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time. The call will cover the company’s second quarter results. Komar will open the call and a question-and-answer session will follow.
