EMB Corporation Announces Record Revenues


HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif., March 5, 2002 (PRIMEZONE) -- James E. Shipley, President of EMB Corporation (OTCBB:EMBI), (Berlin:EMBI.BE), (Frankfurt:EMBI.F), and (Hamburg: EMBI:EMBI:H), announced today that EMB Corporation achieved record net revenues in its second quarter ended December 31, 2001. Mr. Shipley also announced the restatement of the certain aspects of the financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2001, that resulted in a marked reduction in the accumulated deficit of the Company.

James E. Shipley, President of EMB, said, "Revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2001, were up over 41% to a record $2,286,889. The continued strong performance of our First Guaranty Financial Corporation subsidiary led this growth. We are also very pleased with the expansion of operations of our other subsidiary, American National Mortgage, and expect it to contribute to our growth and profitability in future reporting periods. We expect that the continued growth and profitability of our operating entities, coupled with an anticipated reduction in non-cash expenses at the corporate level will result in overall corporate profitability during the remainder of this fiscal year. At the present time we are in negotiations with other mortgage brokerage companies as possible acquisition candidates however, nothing has been signed and nothing is certain at the moment."

Mr. Shipley went on to say, "I am also pleased to announce the restatement of the treatment of the sale of EMB Mortgage Corporation in July 2001, as set forth in our Consolidated Statement of Stockholder's Equity in the Company's amended Annual Report, yields the Company additional equity in excess of $3,000,000, or an increase of $0.18 per share, which is a one-time event."
