FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
FlagshipPDG Announces First Quarter Results
PITTSBURGH, PA, June 12, 2008 PDG Environmental, Inc. (dba FlagshipPDG) (OTC BB: PDGE), a leading provider of environmental remediation, disaster response and reconstruction services, today reported financial results for the fiscal first quarter ended April 30, 2008.
Revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2009 was $17.7 million, down 18.4% from the $21.7 million reported in the first quarter of fiscal 2008. Field margin for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 was $4.7 million or approximately 27% of revenue as compared to field margin of $6.5 million or approximately 30% of revenue in the prior year fiscal quarter. The company reported a net after-tax loss of $(1.1) million, or $(0.05) per diluted share in the first quarter of fiscal 2009, compared with net income of $0.3 million, or $0.01 per diluted share in the first quarter of fiscal 2008. EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) was a negative $(0.8) million for the current quarter versus a positive EBITDA of $1.3 million for the comparable period in fiscal 2008. Although other direct and SG&A costs were down $0.65 million sequentially from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008, they did increase by $0.35 million as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2008 due principally to marketing and re-branding costs, personnel costs for finance and sales professionals, non-cash stock option expense, and ongoing costs for Sarbanes Oxley. In the first quarter of fiscal 2009 and first quarter of fiscal 2008, FlagshipPDG recorded non-cash accounting costs of $0.2 million related to its July 2005 private placement. Average shares outstanding for the quarter rose to 20.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2009 from 20.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2008.
     “While the first quarter is historically very slow for FlagshipPDG, the revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2009 were significantly less than anticipated. Two significant projects in New York that were expected to start early in the quarter did not begin to ramp up until April, a large contract with a school district in California did not produce expected revenues, and reconstruction revenues were down significantly from the fourth quarter. Fortunately the two contracts in New York are now going strong, the California contract is beginning to generate additional revenues and we have recently received a number of significant awards on the reconstruction side that will be starting this quarter. Backlog remains strong at about $57 million and we continue to trim overhead costs where appropriate with recent cuts projected to save nearly $700,000 annually. On the strength of the recent backlog additions and ramp-up of existing contracts, we look forward to much improved results for the second quarter,” said John C. Regan, chairman and chief executive officer of FlagshipPDG.

The company makes use of EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) as a financial measure which it believes is a useful performance indicator. EBITDA is not a recognized term under generally accepted accounting principles, or “GAAP,” and should not be considered as an alternative to net income/(loss) or net cash provided by operating activities, which are GAAP measures. A reconciliation of EBITDA to net income/(loss) appears at the end of this release as actual results for the quarter.
