Industrial Services of America, Inc. Management's Comments

With the release of our earnings for the second quarter of 2005, we are pleased to announce that we have now recorded nine consecutive profitable quarters. This sustained profitability continues to place us in a stronger financial position, allowing for greater flexibility to adjust to changing economic market conditions.

On June 29, 2005, we completed the purchase of approximately five acres at 1565 East 4^th Street, Seymour, Indiana, where our Indiana operation resides. This property was under a lease purchase arrangement for the previous three years.

Last year's record level of production in our ferrous material operations was based on high demand for ferrous materials worldwide. As the demand for ferrous materials declined during the last nine months, our goal has shifted to purchasing, upgrading and selling our recycling products in order to maximize profitability based on market conditions. As a result of the decrease in shipments, earnings for the second quarter of 2005, while consistent with historical data, were not as high as the second quarter of 2004 when demand and production were abnormally high. Our outlook for the third quarter remains positive due to the recent increase in ferrous scrap selling prices.

Net income, basic and diluted earnings per share for the second quarter and six months of 2004 have been adjusted to reflect a permanent tax benefit of $127,300 reported as an increase to additional paid-in-capital that was inadvertently recorded as a reduction to income tax expense. Additional information is available in the Company's Form 10-Q, which is available for review at the Securities and Exchange Commission web site, http://www.sec.gov/edgar/searchedgar/companysearch.html.

Industrial Services of America, Inc., is a Louisville, Ky.-based logistics management services company servicing commercial, industrial and logistics customers nationwide. Industrial Services of America, Inc. provides scrap processing, waste and recycling management services, and equipment sales and service. Industrial Services of America, Inc. also actively participates in international markets, exporting non-ferrous metals and other recyclable materials. Additional information is available at www.isa-inc.com.

This news release contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from predicted results. Specific risks include varying demand for waste managing systems, equipment and services, competitive pressures in the waste managing systems and equipment, competitive pressures in the waste managing business and fluctuations in the price of recycled materials. Further information on factors that could affect the Company's results is detailed in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to the forward-looking statements.

EBITDA is calculated by the Company as net income before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization. The Company uses EBITDA as a key performance measure of results of operations for purposes of evaluating performance internally. This non-GAAP measurement is not intended to replace the presentation of our financial results in accordance with GAAP. Rather, we believe the EBITDA calculation provides additional information to investors and debt holders due to the fact that tax credits, tax rates and other tax related items vary by company. Additionally, years of service for fixed assets and amortizable assets are based on company judgment. Finally, companies have several ways of raising capital which can affect interest expense. We believe the presentation of EBITDA provides a meaningful measure of performance exclusive of these unique items.
