Castle Brands Announces Fourth Quarter and Fiscal 2007 Results

U.S. Launch of New Boru Vodka Generates Record Fiscal Fourth Quarter

Volume Growth of 120% Over Prior Year

NEW YORK, NY, June 28, 2007. Castle Brands Inc. (AMEX:ROX), an emerging international premium spirits company today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended March 31, 2007.

Fiscal Fourth Quarter 2007 Results

U.S. case sales increased 62% year over year to 49,813 nine liter cases in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007. This increase was largely attributable to Boru Vodka sales which increased 120% over the same quarter in the prior fiscal year due to the March introduction of the redesigned packaging for Boru and its three flavor extensions. Global case sales in the fourth quarter were up 49% to 72,395 nine liter cases.

For the fourth quarter fiscal year 2007, Castle Brands reported net sales of $6.1 million, representing a 64% increase over the prior year quarter.

Highlights for the quarter included:

• Total U.S. case sales up 62% year over year;

• Total global case sales up 49% year over year;

• U.S. Boru Vodka Sales up 120% year over year;

• U.S. accounted for 69% of total case sales versus 63% in the prior year; and

• Total revenues increase 64% year over year to $6.1 million.

Mark Andrews, the Company’s Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Fiscal fourth quarter 2007 was a key period for the company as we launched the new Boru Vodka bottle and its three flavor extensions. This launch was important for the company in positioning our brand in the highly competitive and rapidly growing premium vodka market. We are extremely pleased with the success of the

launch of the new Boru packaging and with the acceleration of Boru Vodka sales in the U.S.”

In addition to the strength of U.S. case sales of Boru Vodka during the fourth quarter fiscal 2007, Castle Brands also experienced 96% growth in U.S. whiskey case sales (which includes growth resulting from the addition of the McLain & Kyne bourbon brands which were acquired by Castle Brands in October 2006), 56% growth in U.S. rum case sales and 4% increase in U.S. liqueurs case sales. Fourth quarter international case sales were up 26%, led by a 39% growth in international rum case sales and 32% international growth in vodka case sales. International liqueur case sales were down 25% for the quarter but this was offset by 19% growth in international whiskey case sales.

Gross profit for the fourth quarter fiscal year 2007 increased 49% to $2.0 million, up from $1.4 million in the prior year quarter while gross margin decreased to 33.4% compared to 36.7% for the same period. The decrease in gross margin reflected a shift in product and size mix.

As a result of additional expenditure made to support the expansion and growth of its portfolio, Castle Brands’ selling expense increased 27.5% to $3.9 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2007 from $3.1 million in the prior year quarter. This support includes increases in costs associated with the Boru relauch, sales support costs and increased expenses in connection with certain elements of the Gosling’s rum advertising campaign. However, selling expense as a percentage of net sales decreased to 64.7% from 83.3% in the comparable prior year period.

General and administrative expenses were $2.4 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 as compared to $1.5 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales were 39.7% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 as compared to 39.5% in the comparable period of fiscal 2006. This increase in general and administrative expense was partly attributable to the incremental increases in costs associated with being a public company. In addition, Castle Brands has hired additional employees over the past year, resulting in an increase in compensation expense. Castle Brands also adopted SFAS 123(R), Share-Based Payment on April 1, 2006, which resulted in stock-based compensation expense of $0.4 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2007, as compared to zero in the comparable period in the prior year.

As a result of the forgoing, the company reported a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $4.5 million, or $(0.38) per share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 as compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $4.0 million, or $(1.28) per share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006.

Fiscal 2007 Results

For the twelve months ending March 31, 2007, total case sales were 314,644, an 18% increase over the prior year. Volume was driven by strong sales in the United States, with Boru Vodka contributing significantly to this growth. This increase in vodka case sales was approximately 54% in the U.S. and 9% internationally. The rum category was also a driver during the year, with a 21% lift in global case volume for the fiscal year. Case sales of liqueurs were down 5% for the full year, in part due to the discontinuation

of certain lower-margin Irish cream products. The decrease in liqueur sales was offset by case sales of Whiskey which grew 26%, benefiting from the contribution of the McLain & Kyne bourbon brands which were acquired by Castle Brands in October 2006.

Castle Brands’ international sales, which totaled 40% of total case volume for fiscal 2007, also experienced continued gains, up from 117,154 cases in fiscal 2006 to 125,647 cases in fiscal 2007. Rum was the fastest growing category for the Company’s international business, reflecting activity by the Gosling-Castle Partners joint venture, with an increase to 17,992 cases in fiscal 2007 from 13,471 cases in fiscal 2006. This was followed by whiskey case sales up 10% and vodka case sales up 9%. International liqueur case sales declined by 49%. As noted, growth in the Company’s flagship brands was partially offset by reduced sales of certain lower-priced Irish cream products which accounted for approximately 17,600 cases in FY 2006 and only approximately 5,100 cases in FY 2007.

For the full year 2007, net sales increased 19% over the same period in the prior year to $25.2 million.

Gross profit increased 12% to $8.4 million during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007 from $7.5 million in the comparable prior period, while gross margin decreased to 33.3% during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007 when compared to 35.4% for the prior fiscal year, reflecting shifts in brand and size mix.

Selling expense increased 29% to $16.8 million in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007 from $13.0 million from the prior fiscal year. This increase in selling expense was attributable to the expansion, growth and continued support of Castle Brands premium portfolio. This support includes increases in costs associated with the Boru relaunch, sales support costs and increased expenses in connection with the Gosling’s rum advertising campaign. In order to provide proper support for its portfolio, Castle Brands added new personnel, which resulted in an increase in consultancy and compensation expense. Castle Brands also adopted SFAS 123(R), Share-Based Payment on April 1, 2006, which resulted in stock-based compensation expense of $0.4 million in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007, as compared to zero in the comparable period in the prior year. As a result of the foregoing, selling expense as a percentage of net sales increased to 66.6% in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007 as compared to 61.7% for the comparable prior year period.

For the full year, general and administrative expenses were $8.6 million as compared to $5.5 million in fiscal 2006. This increase was largely attributable to the incremental increases in costs incurred by Castle Brands in being a public company. In addition, Castle Brands hired additional employees over the past year, resulting in an increase in compensation expense, and adopted SFAS 123(R), Share-Based Payment on April 1, 2006, which resulted in stock-based compensation expense of $1.0 million in the year ended March 31, 2007, as compared to zero in the comparable period in the prior year. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales were 34.4% for fiscal 2007 as compared to 26.0% for fiscal 2006.

For the twelve months ended March 31, 2007, Castle Brands generated a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $16.6 million, or $(1.40) per share, versus a net

loss attributable to common stockholders from the prior year of $14.7 million, or $(4.73) per share.

Reflecting on the year, Mr. Andrews said, “Fiscal 2007 was a pivotal year for Castle Brands and we saw our heavy investments in distribution and brand building begin to yield results. Enhanced distribution, as well as a broader product portfolio, enabled U.S. sales to grow significantly faster than overall company growth. Globally, we were able to deliver record case sales and revenue despite the decision to discontinue sales of some lower margin Irish cream products.” Mr. Andrews further commented, “The momentum we have going into fiscal 2008, coupled with other initiatives underway to build brand awareness and drive sales is expected to result in another record year of case sales for Castle Brands.”

Balance Sheet

Cash and cash equivalents, together with short-term investments, totaled $6.9 million at March 31, 2007. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company closed a private placement of $21 million of common stock and warrants sold to certain institutional investors. The Company intends to use the proceeds from the offering for further brand development, acquisitions, and other corporate purposes.
