REDMOND, Wash., Nov. 19, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CoroWare, Inc. (OTCBB:CROE) today announced its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2008.

Professional Service revenues continued to decrease in the early part of the quarter as our largest customers continued to reduce expenditures in response to changing economic conditions worldwide.

General and Administrative expenses were 65.4% lower in the 2008 period due to substantial reduction in costs related to streamlining the company's operations, including finance and corporate governance.

Loss from continuing operations before other income was $274,356 during the 2008 period, which decreased 69.6% from $902,463 during the 2007 period. Net Loss applicable to common shareholders was $474,693 during the 2008 period compared to a Net Loss of $367,614 in the 2007 period.
