JER Envirotech Announces Record Q4 2008 and Quarter Over Quarter Revenue Growth

  JER Envirotech International Corp. (TSX-V: JER) (FRANKFURT: KFTB) ("JER") is pleased to announce that its preliminary
unaudited revenues for Q4 2008 (ended August 31, 2008) reached $1,126,515
up 94% over the same quarter in fiscal 2007 at $581,964. These revenues
were also up 72% over Q3 2008 at $653,979.

For fiscal 2008, JER's revenues totaled $2,601,209 which was up 193% over fiscal 2007 at $886,888.

"We are very pleased with our performance during Q4 2008, as it was the first quarter where our revenues surpassed $1M," states Ed Trueman, JER's President and CEO. "With polymer prices now nearly double from just one year ago, an enormous strain has been placed on all industries that use this material in the production of their products. As a biocomposite manufacturer offering a cost-effective, direct replacement for pure polymers, we are in an enviable position.

"We enable our customers to manufacture high quality products while protecting profit margins. In addition, the use of our compounds is a socially responsible decision that they can effectively market as a product differentiator. These factors, combined with the expanding reach of our sales and marketing team, are contributing to strong revenue growth, as evidenced by the 72% increase we experienced from Q3 to Q4 of the current fiscal year."

During Q4 2008, JER's compound business unit met management's performance expectations. The Company is also pleased to report that its extruded sheeting business unit had its first significant impact in current quarterly performance, accounting for approximately 10% of overall sales.

Quarter over quarter revenue performance for fiscal 2008, 2007 and 2006 was as follows:

From an operational standpoint, JER significantly reduced its cost of operations during Q4 2008, primarily through economies of scale in production, strategic purchasing of raw materials, a reduction in facilities overhead, and more efficient staffing. "We remain focused on moving the Company towards breakeven as early as possible," continues Trueman.

JER anticipates the release of its audited financial statements for fiscal 2008, along with management's discussion and analysis, on or about November 12, 2008.
