                 IDMoS plc (AIM: IDO) ('IDMoS' or the 'Company')

Further to the announcement by IDMoS on 8 February that it was contemplating a 
range of transactions including an offer for the entire share capital of the
Company  and the confirmation on 20 February that the Board were actively
pursuing all  opportunities including seeking buyers for the entire issued share
capital of the  Company, the Board of IDMoS confirms that the parties have been
unable to reach  agreement and that offer discussions have now been terminated.

As a result, the board has taken advice and no longer believes that the Company 
is in a position to continue its commercial operations.  Colin Dempster and
Andrew  Davison of Ernst & Young LLP, were today (April 16, 2008), appointed 
Joint Administrators of the Company and they will now seek to find a buyer for 
the business and assets including the Cariescan product and underlying
technology.

The Company's Nominated Advisor, Nomura Code Securities Limited has terminated
its existing contract with the Company, effective today.
