CTG Returns to Profitability in 2001 Third Quarter

Improvements Reported in Cash Earnings and Net Income

BUFFALO, N.Y. — October 15, 2001 — CTG (NYSE: CTG), an international information technology (IT) solutions and staffing company, today announced its financial results for the third quarter of 2001, which ended on September 28, 2001. CTG’s third quarter 2001 revenues were $75.1 million, compared to revenues of $79.8 million in the third quarter of 2000. CTG’s net income for the 2001 third quarter was $0.2 million, or $0.07 cash income per diluted share and $0.01 net income per diluted share, compared to a 2000 third quarter net loss of $0.2 million, or $0.05 cash income per diluted share and a $0.01 net loss per diluted share. Cash income excludes the amortization of goodwill and other identifiable intangibles, which are non-cash expenses.

For the first three quarters of 2001, CTG reported revenues of $241.6 million compared to revenues of $262.3 million in the first three quarters of 2000. CTG’s net loss for the first three quarters of 2001 was $2.6 million, or $0.03 cash income per diluted share and a $0.16 net loss per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $5.8 million, or a $0.12 cash loss per diluted share and a $0.36 net loss per diluted share, in the corresponding 2000 period. The net loss per diluted share for the 2000 year-to-date period includes a net after-tax restructuring charge of $0.18 per diluted share.

“CTG’s financial performance continues to reflect broad-based reductions and delays in corporate spending for information technology services,” said CTG President and Chief Executive Officer James R. Boldt. “While third quarter revenues were slightly below our initial forecast, CTG returned to modest profitability and reported bottom-line results consistent with expectations based on our ability to align our cost structure with recent revenues. Since the first quarter of 2001, we have reduced CTG ‘s selling, general, and administrative expenses by 21 percent on an annualized basis, and we will remain vigilant in our efforts to match costs with current revenues.

“Although our staffing business is currently experiencing lower demand due to the economic slowdown in the United States and Europe, health care and application management outsourcing stand out as two areas of significant growth opportunity in the IT services sector where CTG is well-positioned to win new business,” Mr. Boldt continued. “During the third quarter, CTG experienced a double-digit sequential increase in health care revenues as health care providers are increasingly looking to use IT to reduce operating costs. We expect continued increases in health care revenue as the deadlines for full compliance with HIPAA (the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) draw closer. More companies, including health care providers, are also considering application management outsourcing as a way to lower their costs, and that is reflected in a recent increase in our proposal activity.”

CTG also issued guidance for the fourth quarter of 2001. Based on current business and market conditions, CTG expects that its revenues and net income or loss per share for the fourth quarter of 2001 will range from $71 million to $73 million and $.04 to $.07 cash income per diluted share or a net loss of $0.02 to net income of $0.01 per diluted share, respectively.

“We are continuing to limit our guidance to the current quarter based on the widespread uncertainty in the economy,” Mr. Boldt concluded. “CTG has held its own through a very difficult period for our industry and is reporting positive operating results at a time when many competitors are not. Our plan going forward is to primarily focus our efforts on those areas of our business — staffing, application management outsourcing, and health care IT consulting — where the growth potential and CTG’s capabilities and market position are strongest.”
