previous quarter and $3.4 million in the same quarter a year ago. The

digital increased revenues during the quarter. The company employs a
"natural hedging" strategy in which management endeavors to match
revenue generated in a given currency against the associated client
delivery costs denominated in the same currency. This strategy results
in approximately neutral cash-flow impact from foreign exchange
movements, despite changes in reported gross revenues. The net loss for
the quarter was $2.6 million or ($0.02) per basic and diluted share,
compared to a loss of $3.3 million or ($0.04) per basic and diluted
share in the previous quarter and a loss of $8.2 million or ($0.21) per
basic and diluted share in the third quarter of 2007. The net loss for
the quarter reflects several non-cash items, including $188,000 in
stock-based compensation, compared to $73,000 in the previous quarter
and $1.2 million in the same year ago quarter. Additionally, the net
loss included restructuring charges of $162,000 relating to employee
