Remote Dynamics (OTCBB: RMTD) (www.remotedynamics.com), a provider of asset tracking and fleet management solutions, reports its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2008.

Gary Hallgren, CEO of Remote Dynamics, commented, "We continued our momentum from the second quarter with an excellent third quarter. We had positive adjusted EBITDA of $121,000 during the third quarter and continued growth of our subscriber base. Despite the tough economic conditions, we have been successful in continuing to demonstrate value to our customers by delivering a quick return on investment. We are also continuing to expand our product offerings to satisfy customer demand."

Highlights for the quarter included:

--  REDIview subscriber base increased 12.8% in the first nine months of
    2008 and 19.1% on a year-over -year basis since September 30, 2007.

Ending REDIview units       9,057      9,560   10,182     10,462     10,787
--  Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2008 was $1.38
    million compared to $1.16 million during the three months ended September
    30, 2007.  The 19.3% increase in revenue from the comparable period in 2007
    is primarily attributable to REDIview unit growth.

--  Total gross profit margin was 66% for the third quarter 2008 compared
    to 56% for the third quarter of 2007.  Reduced costs of airtime and mapping
    costs were the primary reasons for the increase in gross margins.  Of the
    66% gross profit margin, 4 percentage points represents amortization of the
    deferred performance obligation of our installed base related to the
    reverse merger transaction on December 4, 2006.  We expect gross profit
    margins of greater than 55% to continue through 2008.

--  Total operating expenses totaled $989,000 for the three months ended
    September 30, 2008 compared to $904,000 for the three months ended
    September 30, 2007.  This $85,000 or 9.4% increase is primarily
    attributable to increased bad debt expense and payroll expenses.

--  Interest expense totaled $0.3 million for the three months ended
    September 30, 2008 compared to $1.4  million for the same period during
    2007.  The current period interest expense primarily relates to the
    accretion of the Series B Notes in the amount of $248,000.  The $1,017,000
    decrease in interest expense since the comparable period in 2007 can be
    primarily attributed to the fact that the Series A Notes were fully
    accreted in February 2008.  The accretion of the Series A Notes was $0 for
    the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared to $0.7 million for the
    three months ended September 30, 2007.  Additionally, default interest and
    liquidated damages on the Series A and Series B Notes totaled $513,000 for
    the three months ended September 30, 2007 versus $50,000 for the three
    months ended September 30, 2008.

--  Adjusted EBITDA was positive $121,000 for the third quarter of 2008
    compared to negative $27,000 for the same period in 2007.  Adjusted year to
    date EBITDA was positive $91,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
    2008 compared to negative $279,000 for the same period in 2007.  The return
    to positive EBITDA is attributable to continued sales growth as well as our
    efforts to reduce operating expenses and improve gross margins.
    

Other Highlights for 2008 include:

--  Through the first nine months of 2008, we issued 2,601,382 shares of
    common stock as partial principal payments on our series A notes in
    satisfaction of $495,156 of obligations due under the notes.  Additionally,
    we issued 1,240,060 shares of common stock as partial payments on our
    series B notes in satisfaction of $246,897 of obligations due under the
    notes.  We expect to issue additional shares of our common stock in payment
    of amounts due under the notes during the remainder of 2008 and thereafter.
    In general, the shares issued are available for immediate resale by the
    holders in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as
    amended.

--  On August 8, 2008, we amended our Amended and Restated Certificate of
    Incorporation to (i) effect a one-for-four hundred reverse stock split of
    our common stock and (ii) authorize (after giving effect to the reverse
    stock split) 5,000,000,000 authorized shares of our common stock having a
    par value of $0.0001 per share.  These actions were required for us to
    comply with the terms of our existing financing and other contractual
    arrangements. As of September 30, 2008,  we had 4,596,531 shares of our
    common stock outstanding.

Adjusted EBITDA Presentation

EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, before goodwill impairment, gains or losses on the extinguishment of debt and preferred stock, restructuring charges and other non-operating costs. EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP. However, we have included data with respect to EBITDA because we evaluate and project the performance of our business using several measures, including EBITDA. The computations of Adjusted EBITDA the respective quarters are as follows.

The company considers adjusted EBITDA to be an important supplemental indicator of its operating performance, particularly as compared to the operating performance of its competitors, because this measure eliminates many differences among companies in financial, capitalization and tax structures, capital investment cycles and ages of related assets, as well as certain recurring non-cash and non-operating items. It believes that consideration of EBITDA should be supplemental, because EBITDA has limitations as an analytical financial measure. These limitations include the following: EBITDA does not reflect its cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; EBITDA does not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on its indebtedness; although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; EBITDA does not reflect the effect of earnings or charges resulting from matters it considers not to be indicative of its ongoing operations; and not all of the companies in its industry may calculate EBITDA in the same manner in which it calculates EBITDA, which limits its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Management compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on its GAAP results to evaluate its operating performance and by considering independently the economic effects of the foregoing items that are not reflected in EBITDA. As a result of these limitations, EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), as calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, as a measure of operating performance, nor should it be considered as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.
