The Company’s gross margin increased to 30.9 percent in the fourth quarter from 28.1 percent in the third quarter, and compares to 32.3 percent in the fourth quarter of 2006. For the year, gross margin was 29.5 percent, a slight increase over the 2006 level of 29.2 percent. Selling, general and administrative costs (“SG&A”) during the fourth quarter was $1.9 million compared to $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2007 and $1.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2006. The increase in SG&A in the fourth quarter of 2007 over the third quarter represents the costs associated with the Company’s decision to heighten its sales and marketing effort to achieve its revenue quality strategic objectives. SG&A for 2007 was $7.1 million, which is

unchanged from the prior year level, excluding the $881,000 of net proceeds received by the Company during the second quarter of 2006 in connection with the release of claims relating to the terminated transaction with Vanguard Info-Solutions Corporation.

Sal Quadrino, Helios & Matheson’s chief financial officer, commented on the fourth quarter financial results, “The results of our fourth quarter reflect a heightened focus on diversifying our customer base and repositioning the company’s services to higher margined, reoccurring revenues. Virtually all of the increase in SG&A in the fourth quarter, as compared to the third quarter, represented an investment to enhance our sales and marketing effort. Our gross margin showed signs of improving, increasing almost three percent from the previous quarter.” Mr. Quadrino added, “Our company remains financially strong, with a current ratio of 3.5 and cash per share of $1.28 as of 2007 year-end.”

Michael Prude, Helios & Matheson’s chief operating officer, said, “As a premier provider of business solutions that maximize our clients’ return on (IT) investments, we develop partnerships with our clients based on expert guidance and service. We intend to reinforce our business value to our clients by enriching services that support their evolving needs.
