The net income for the second quarter 2008 included income from discontinued operations of $0.4 million.

For the six months ended June 30, 2009, consolidated revenues were $93.6 million compared to $103.6 million in the comparable period of 2008. The Company's net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2009 totaled $2.3 million, or $(0.03) per share, compared to a net loss of $0.5 million, or $(0.01) per share in 2008. The results for the six months ended June 30, 2009 include a non-cash charge of $1.6 million attributable to increased depreciation expense resulting from a reduction in the estimated useful life of the Company's current IT system. The 2009 results also include restructuring and other charges totaling $0.9 million. The net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2008 included restructuring and other charges of $1.7 million and $0.5 million of income from discontinued operations.

Revenues by service lines include:



  * Portamedic revenue totaled $34.6 million for the second quarter of 2009
    compared to $35.0 million for the first quarter of 2009 and $36.4 million
    in the second quarter of 2008.

  * Heritage Labs revenue totaled $3.1 million for the second quarter of 2009
    compared to $3.2 million in the first quarter of 2009 and $3.4 million in

    from $6.8 million for the first quarter of 2009 and $10.1 million in the
    second quarter of 2008, primarily due to reduced demand for the Company's
    outsourced underwriting services.

  * Health & Wellness revenue totaled $2.0 million for the second quarter of
    2009, a decline from $2.4 million of revenue in the first quarter of 2009
    primarily due to seasonality, but an increase of 48% from $1.3 million of
    revenue in the comparable second quarter of 2008.

Cash provided by continuing operations approximated $3.1 million in the second quarter of 2009. As of June 30, 2009, cash and cash equivalents totaled $12.4 million, with no borrowings under the Company's credit facility.

Roy H. Bubbs, President and Chief Executive Officer of Hooper Holmes, commented, "The downturn in the economy continues to challenge our customers and as a result our revenues continue to be under pressure. However, we continue to diligently reduce costs through a number of initiatives to better align our costs with forecasted revenue levels. As we execute on these cost reductions, we are not losing focus on expanding revenues and gaining market share. We believe as the year progresses and the economy begins to stabilize, we are taking the right steps to achieve profitability."
