Exhibit 99.1

For Immediate Release

IGO REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2012 FINANCIAL RESULTS

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., August 7, 2012 – iGo, Inc. (Nasdaq: IGOI), a leading provider of eco-friendly power management solutions and accessories for mobile electronic devices, today reported financial results for the second quarter ending June 30, 2012.

Revenue was $7.3 million for the second quarter of 2012, compared with $10.8 million in the same period of the prior year. The decline in revenue is primarily attributable to lower sales of power products in international markets and in the wireless carrier channel.

Net loss was $3.5 million, or ($0.10) per share, in the second quarter of 2012, compared with a net loss of $1.9 million, or ($0.06) per share, in the same quarter of the prior year. Net loss in the second quarter of 2012 includes a $1.0 million writedown in the value of the Company’s investment in Pure Energy Visions. Excluding the $1.0 million writedown, the increase in net loss is primarily attributable to a lower level of sales of power products and to lower gross margins in the retail channel.

The Company had $12.9 million in cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments, and no debt as of June 30, 2012.

Michael D. Heil, President and Chief Executive Officer of iGo, commented, “We are highly focused on improving the performance of our power products business. We have a number of new power products set to be introduced in the second half of the year including more chargers designed for tablet computers. We have also established new distribution relationships that we believe will help us better penetrate key markets and distribution channels.”

Gross margin for the second quarter of 2012 was 19.7%, compared with 25.9% in the second quarter of 2011. The decline in gross margin is primarily due to the lower level of sales and more competitive pricing for power products in the retail channel.

Total operating expenses were $4.0 million in the second quarter of 2012, compared with $4.8 million in the second quarter of 2011. The decline is primarily attributable to lower marketing expense and lower personnel-related expense.
