Aberdeen Reports Shareholder Equity of $0.61 Per Share for Second Quarter Ended July 31, 2013

ABERDEEN INTERNATIONAL INC. ("Aberdeen", or the "Company") (TSX:AAB) is pleased to announce that it has released its financial results for the second quarter of 2014, ended July 31, 2013. For more information please see the Company's Condensed Interim Financial Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") posted under the Company's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

As at July 31, 2013, Aberdeen's Shareholders' Equity (or Net Asset Value, "NAV") was $51.8 million, or $0.61 per share. Aberdeen's shareholders' equity decreased by $3.4 million from $55.2 million at the end of Q1 2014. The decrease in shareholders' equity was largely due to the performance of Aberdeen's equity investment portfolio in the second quarter, which had an unrealized loss of $2.7 million for the quarter. In the second quarter of 2014, the stock market performance for small capitalization mining and resource stocks continued to be weak. On a year-over-year basis, Aberdeen's shareholders' equity decreased by $19.5 million. Note that the reference to shareholders' equity is similar to previous references to Net Asset Value or "NAV" by Aberdeen.
