ITEX Reveals Fourth Consecutive Profitable Year

ITEX Corporation (OTCBB: ITEX) filed its Form 10-KSB with the Securities and Exchange Commission and announced its results for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2007.

�Over the past four fiscal years, we have increased operational income and cash flow year over year,� stated Steven White, Chairman and CEO. �During the same period, we increased stockholder equity from a negative $481,000 to more than $12 million, increased revenue 34%, and almost doubled our membership base.

�We attribute our growth to focusing our model on cashless transaction processing for small businesses in a unique, vertical marketplace. Our fiscal 2007 results reflect another solid year with gains in key areas including income from operations, operational cash flow, and earnings per share,� he continued.

�As a result of our gains and strong cash flow, our balance sheet continued to strengthen in fiscal 2007 with total assets increasing 34% and total liabilities decreasing 27%. Our ability to invest in technology and to initiate new projects in order to grow revenue affords us a firm footing for the future.

�During fiscal 2007, we upgraded and expanded the franchise portion of our web site, we retained outside technology and marketing firms to help execute a multi-faceted strategy to increase revenue, and we announced our Executive Privileges Program.

�We anticipate that these programs and initiatives will have a long-term positive effect on our operations by expanding our Trading Community member base and increasing participation in our Marketplace,� White concluded.
