FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

American Mold Guard Reports Second Quarter 2006 Results

SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, Calif., July 25, 2006— American Mold Guard, Inc. (NasdaqSC: AMGI, AMGIW, AMGIZ), an industry leader in the field of mold prevention services, today announced financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2006.

Second Quarter Results

The company reported second quarter 2006 net sales of $2.6 million, an increase of 105 percent from $1.3 million for the second quarter of 2005. Net sales increased primarily due to higher demand for the company’s services and a price increase enacted in the beginning of the year. Gross margin for the second quarter of 2006 was $ 1.1 million, or 42.6 percent, an increase of 901 percent from the $110,377 gross margin for the second quarter of 2005. The gross margin increase was realized through less material usage and improved crew productivity on higher sales volume, as well as from a price increase that the company implemented in the beginning of the year.

The company reported a net loss for the second quarter of 2006 of $3.55 million, or $1.57 per share, compared to a net loss of $1.39 million, or $1.50 per share, for the second quarter of 2005. Included in the second quarter 2006 net loss is interest expense of $1.9 million, that resulted from the accelerated recognition of deferred interest charges associated with current quarter debt repayments and $27,107 of charges related to equity-based compensation as a result of SFAS 123R. The second quarter 2006 net loss increase from the prior year was primarily due to the increased cost of being a public company, investments in new service centers, marketing of the company brand and product and the write-off of unamortized interest expense related to pre-IPO debt incurred by the company. The majority of the debt was repaid in the second quarter of 2006. The per share net loss information reflects the effect of the one-for-.340124209 reverse stock split, effective April 7, 2006.

“We are executing on our plan to expand American Mold Guard’s mold prevention service to customers, having opened five new service centers this quarter” said Tom Blakeley, Chief Executive Officer of American Mold Guard. “I am pleased that our year-to-date sales in 2006 almost approximate 2005 full-year sales and that we continued to increase company gross margin through productivity improvements. With the IPO complete, the company is now positioned to continue to expand its service coverage and product offerings in an effort to accelerate our growth,” concluded Mr. Blakeley.

Third Quarter 2006 Outlook

For the third quarter of 2006, the company is estimating revenue in the range of $3.1 to 3.6 million.


Completion of the Company’s Initial Public Offering

On May 2, 2006, the company closed its initial public offering of 1,350,000 units at a price per unit of $13.00. Each unit consisted of two shares of common stock, two Class A warrants and two Class B warrants. The offering raised net proceeds of $16.0 million, after underwriter discounts. On May 23, 2006, the representative of the several underwriters of the initial public offering exercised an over-allotment option and purchased an additional 100,000 units. The exercise of the over-allotment option raised additional net proceeds of $1.2 million, after underwriting discounts. On June 7, 2006, the representative of the several underwriters again exercised the over-allotment option and purchased 100,000 shares of Common Stock, 100,000 Class A warrants and 100,000 Class B warrants. This second exercise of the over-allotment option raised additional net proceeds of $.6 million, after underwriting discounts. The total gross proceeds from the company’s initial public offering was approximately $19.5 million and the company realized aggregate net proceeds of approximately $17.8 million, after underwriting discounts. As noted in the company’s offering prospectus, significant amounts of the net proceeds of the offering was used to repay outstanding debt of the company and will be used for working capital purposes.
