PILAT TECHNOLOGIES INTERNATIONAL LTD ("Pilat", the "Group" or the "Company") Announces Interim and Second Quarter Results for the year to 30 June 2003. Second Quarter shows significant improvement in operating performance London and Tel Aviv 29 August 2003 - Pilat Technologies International Ltd ("PTI"), the AIM quoted human resources management consultancy, software and services group, announces its results for the half year and second quarter ended 30 June 2003 SUMMARY A small net profit of £42,000 in the quarter ending 30 June 2003, compared with a £190,000 loss for the same quarter in 2002. A smaller loss of £153,000 in the first half of 2003 compared to a loss of £ 488,000 in the first half of 2002. Enquiries: Pilat Technologies International Ltd + 972-3-767-9230 Chaim Helfgott, Chief Financial Officer PRELIMINARY STATEMENT OF RESULTS Half year and second quarter to 30 June 2003 Chairman's Statement The Board of Pilat Technologies International Ltd is pleased to present the Company's results for the second quarter of 2003. The quarter showed a continued improvement over the Q1 results - with the Company delivering a small operating profit. Q2 operating profits were £62,000 compared with an operating loss of £85,000 for the equivalent quarter ended 30 June 2002. This reflects continued improvements in the underlying businesses in each of our three core operating countries, the US, UK and Israel, with all companies in the group contributing positively to the result. Trading conditions continue to be difficult -especially in the Israeli market but earlier reported and planned cost reductions are now in place. Profit and Loss Account For the first six months of 2003 ("the Period"), Pilat's revenues of £5,622,000 decreased by 10% against the first six months of 2002 (£6,286,000). Revenues in the US and the UK during the Period were similar to those achieved in 2002, but due to market decline the operations in Israel suffered a 35% reduction in income. The cost of sales for the Period decreased by £633,000 compared to 2002, mainly due to the reduction of activities and the expenses of the headquarters. Approximately £188,000 of the £349,000 reduction in the General and Administrative expenses occurred in Israel, due to the cost reduction measures instituted, especially during the second quarter of 2003. For the Period, Pilat suffered a £123,000 operating loss, compared to a £ 399,000 operating loss for the previous period in 2002. However, during the second quarter of 2003, Pilat achieved a £62,000 operating profit as compared with an £85,000 loss in 2002. Financing expense, mainly resulting from the appreciation of the Israeli currency against the British Pound, was £59,000 (£ 88,000 in 2002). The total net loss for the Period was £153,000, as compared with a £488,000 loss for the first six months of 2002. Balance sheet The Company's current assets at 30 June 2003 were £5,447,000, which represents 82.7% of total assets (83.8% at 30 June 2002 and 81.5% at 31 December 2002). Compared with 31 December 2002, the reduction in current assets stems mainly from a decrease of approximately £664,000 in cash and short-term deposits, while the trade receivables increased by £358,000. The £100,000 increase in inventory occurred in Renaissance and was due to one large order, which was subsequently sold. Current liabilities decreased from £4,812,000 at 31 December 2002 to £4,650,000 at 30 June 2003, as a result of repayment of trade and other accounts payable, mostly by Pilat Israel (in the approximate amount of £640,000). Shareholders' equity decreased by £179,000 to £1,732,000. Liquidity For the Period the Company had a negative cash flow of £1,007,000 from its operations. This was primarily a result of the £153,000 operating loss and a reduction in accounts payable due to a first quarter £544,600 payment of suppliers by Pilat Israel and a second quarter increase in accounts receivables, mainly by Renaissance (£208,000). In the same period in 2002, the Company suffered a negative cash flow from operations of £718,000. Cash flows from investments, primarily resulting from the sale of short-term deposits, amounted to £162,000. Cash flows from financing activities, mainly through an increase of bank debt, amounted to £410,000. In total, the cash and cash equivalents together with the short-term investments decreased by £664,000, from £1,966,000 at 31 December 2002 to £ 1,302,000 at 30 June 2003. The excess of Current Assets over Current Liabilities is £797,000, and the current ratio is a healthy 1.17x.

These financial statements are to be read in conjunction with the audited annual financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2002, and their accompanying notes. NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The significant accounting policies applied in the audited annual financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2002 are applied consistently in these financial statements. NOTE 3:- FINANCIAL STATEMENTS IN BRITISH POUNDS a. The financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Israel. b. The Company's transactions are recorded in New Israeli Shekels. However, the Company's management has determined the British pounds as its primary reporting currency since the majority of the Group revenues are in foreign currency and a substantial portion of the fixed assets is purchased in foreign currency. Accordingly, monetary accounts maintained in currencies other than the British pounds are remeasured using the foreign exchange rate at balance sheet date. Operational accounts and non-monetary balance sheet accounts are measured and recorded at the exchange rate in effect at the date of the transaction. The effects of foreign currency remeasurement are reported in current operations.
