Management Comment

WidePoint CEO Steve Komar said, "We were pleased with the financial performance
in the first quarter of 2009. Each of our segments realized internally generated
growth, with revenue gains in our Mobile Telecom Managed Services (MTMS), PKI
(Public Key Infrastructure) Credentialing and Managed Services and Consulting
segments. 

"Our MTMS services revenue grew 42% to approximately $6.4 million as a result of
continued adoption by U.S. government agencies and departments. Our PKI
credentialing services segment was up 85% to $1.4 million as we continued to
witness the implementation of several federally sponsored programs. Our
Consulting services segment witnessed revenue growth of approximately 25% to
$2.4 million as we saw a bottoming and signs of a turnaround in demand from both
government and commercial clients," Komar said. 

WidePoint CFO Jim McCubbin said, "We were pleased with the revenue growth and
margin improvements we witnessed during the first quarter of 2009. While we
anticipate these trends should continue, we could possibly experience some
unevenness in future quarters attributable to delivery timeframes controlled by
our external partners and clients. We were also pleased to see another quarter
of profitability along with working capital improvements that included the
payoff of approximately $2.2 million dollars in subordinated debt during the
quarter. Overall, we continue to maintain a positive outlook for further revenue
growth and positive financial improvements in 2009."
