FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

CreditRiskMonitor Operating Results for 1st Half of 2011

VALLEY COTTAGE, NY—August 8, 2011—CreditRiskMonitor (OTCQB: CRMZ) reported that revenues increased 10% for both the 3 and 6 months ended June 30, 2011 to $2.54 million and $4.98 million, respectively. For the same periods, income from operations was $267,000 and $487,000, respectively, compared to $353,000 and $665,000 for the comparable 2010 periods. Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities at the end of the six-month period increased $782,000 to $7.63 million from the 2010 year-end balance of $6.85 million.

Jerry Flum, CEO said, “We’re continuing to follow our long-term business strategy of investing in infrastructure and new data content to make our product more attractive, realizing that this strategy reduces our profitability in the short-term. However, our free cash flow net of dividend payment for the trailing 12 months is over 80% of our beginning tangible net worth, and our current balance of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, which is currently producing very low returns, is almost 3 times tangible net worth. Furthermore, we continue to be debt free and cash on our Balance Sheet provides us with financial flexibility in case new opportunities arise.”
