COMSYS IT PARTNERS, INC. REPORTS 2007 FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR RESULTS

HOUSTON, TX (February 14, 2008) — COMSYS IT Partners, Inc. (NASDAQ:CITP), a leading provider of information technology staffing and consulting services, today announced results for its fourth quarter and year ended December 30, 2007.

Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2007 was $183.3 million, down 1% from $184.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2006. Excluding the impact of the 2007 acquisitions, revenue declined by 2.1% versus the prior year period.

Net income in the fourth quarter of 2007 was $8.7 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, within management’s fourth quarter net income guidance of $8.4 million to $9.3 million, or $0.42 to $0.46 of earnings per diluted share. Results for the fourth quarter of 2007 included a pre-tax charge of $1.0 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, related to the potential uncollectible accounts receivable exposure resulting from the bankruptcy of VMS provider, Chimes. Management’s guidance for the fourth quarter did not include any impact of the Chimes bankruptcy.

For the fourth quarter of 2006, the Company reported net income of $5.2 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, which included a pre-tax charge of $0.7 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, related to a loss on early extinguishment of debt. Excluding this amount in 2006 and the Chimes-related charge in 2007, net income for the fourth quarter of 2007 increased 65% over the fourth quarter of 2006.

Revenue for the full-year 2007 was $743.3 million, up 1% over $736.6 million for 2006. Net income for 2007 was $33.3 million, or $1.66 per diluted share, an increase from 2006 net income of $21.0 million, or $1.10 per diluted share.

“Except for the impact of the Chimes bankruptcy, we were pleased with our financial results in the fourth quarter,” said Larry L. Enterline, COMSYS Chief Executive Officer. “Net income rose over last year primarily due to the benefits of efficiency initiatives implemented throughout the past year. In addition, we had a decrease in interest expense due to our lower debt levels, and our gross margins continued to show the strength we experienced throughout 2006 and during the first half of 2007. Although our revenue softened during the fourth quarter, our process initiatives and our ability to generate cash and repay debt throughout the year have positioned us well for the uncertain economic times that many are now forecasting.

“I would especially like to thank our operations leaders and their staffs,” Enterline continued. “Their continued focus on our customers, even in the face of the Chimes situation and the integration of the Praeos and TWC acquisitions this quarter, will drive our success, and we are very grateful for their ongoing efforts.”

Amy Bobbitt, Senior Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer, commented, “We entered 2007 with 4,996 consultants on assignment, and after the seasonal reduction in consultant headcount we experience each year in January and the typical falloff we experience at the end of each quarter, we ended 2007 with

4,986 consultants, which includes approximately 170 consultants from businesses acquired in 2007. In 2008, our headcount has declined at a greater-than-normal pace and, as a result, our current headcount in February is approximately 4,750 consultants. Gross profit improved to 25.2% in the fourth quarter of 2007 from 24.6% in the same period last year, with gross profit up approximately $0.7 million between periods. Average bill rates also improved during this period, increasing to $73.25 in the fourth quarter of 2007 from $70.68 in the fourth quarter of 2006. For the fourth quarter of 2007, EBITDA as a percentage of revenues increased to 6.7% (7.3% excluding the Chimes charge) from 6.1% in the same period last year.”

The Company’s debt balance declined to $71.9 million at the end of 2007 from $98.5 million at the end of 2006. During 2007, the Company generated $58.8 million of cash flow from operations and used $30.9 million for acquisitions. The Company expects to make further debt reductions in 2008. During the fourth quarter of 2007, the Company generated EBITDA of $12.3 million compared with $11.3 million of EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2006.

Selected operating data and reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP results for the fourth quarter ended December 30, 2007, are included below in a section before the financial tables.

First Quarter 2008 Financial Guidance

For the first quarter of 2008, the Company expects to report revenue in a range of $181 million to $186 million and net income in the range of $5.1 million to $5.9 million, or approximately $0.25 to $0.29 per diluted share, on two more billing days than the fourth quarter of 2007. These estimated net income amounts include the seasonal impact of payroll-related taxes that the Company experiences in the first quarter of each year and are based on an effective tax rate of 24% (up from 7.6% in the first quarter of 2007).

A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). We believe EBITDA to be relevant and useful information to our investors in assessing our financial operating results as these measures are used by our management in evaluating our financial performance, liquidity, our ability to service debt and fund capital expenditures. Additionally, our Debt to EBITDA ratio affects the interest rates we pay on our credit agreements. However, these measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The non-GAAP measures included in this press release have been reconciled to the nearest GAAP measures as required under SEC rules regarding the use of non-GAAP financial measures.
