$10,886,972 and $32,682,756, respectively.

    Revenues during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 were $10,886,972
compared to $6,936,581 in the comparative period a year ago, representing
an increase of 57%. Fourth quarter continuing operations earnings before

(after deemed dividends) were $455,804 in the most recent current quarter
compared to a loss of $6,557,511 during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006.

    Consolidated revenues from continuing operations were $32,682,756 during
fiscal 2007 compared to $24,127,026 during fiscal 2006. The company
posted $28,327,665 in product sales revenues and $4,355,091 in

segment revenues from continuing operations grew from $10,251,385 during
fiscal 2006 to $14,940,030 in 2007, representing a 46% increase.

    The fiscal 2007 operating results included a non-cash $2,515,767 deemed

substantially improved from $9,927,265 during fiscal 2006.

    The operating results of mmwave Technologies Inc. and Knowlton Pass
Electronics Inc. have been classified as discontinued operations and the
earnings recorded represent the disposal of entities with significant
shortfalls in net assets.

    John Simmonds, Wireless Age's CEO commented, "We're pleased with the 2007
turnaround. The latter half of the year and in particular the fourth
quarter is indicative of the results of our efforts to clean up matters.
The outlook for the Company is very bright and we now have all the
historical problems behind us. Our plan now is to focus on several
opportunities that have been identified that can make Wireless Age a
significant participant in our market place."
