FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
 
CreditRiskMonitor Announces 2Q Results and New Service Options

VALLEY COTTAGE, NY—August 9, 2012—CreditRiskMonitor (OTCQX: CRMZ) reported that revenues increased 8% for both the 3 and 6 months ended June 30, 2012, to $2.74 million and $5.39 million, respectively. For the same periods, income from operations was $199,000 and $282,000, respectively, compared to $267,000 and $487,000 for the comparable 2011 periods. Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities at the end of the six-month period, however, increased $1.13 million to $9.41 million from the 2011 year-end balance of $8.28 million.
 
Jerry Flum, CEO said, “Our short-term income from operations continues to be adversely impacted by the cost of building our sales and service staff, adding new data elements, and creating new tools for subscribers. We continue to be debt free, generating strong free cash flow after dividends. Both of these conditions provide us with financial flexibility in case new opportunities arise.
 
“We recently launched a new set of tools that subscribers can use to analyze their trade accounts receivable data on both public and private companies, if they contribute this data to our service.  We are seeing a very positive reaction to these new tools, and an increasing number of subscribers are contributing their data.”
