BiznessOnline.com Announces Second Quarter and Year to Date Results

WALL, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 3, 1999--BiznessOnline.com,
Inc. (NASDAQ NM: BIZZ) today reported unaudited pro forma results for
the quarter ended June 30, 1999. The pro forma financial results
presented below for the six months ending June 30, 1998 and 1999
assume the BiznessOnline.com initial public offering and related
acquisitions of four Internet service providers (ISPs) which took
place in May 1999, and the earlier acquisition of an ISP in January
1999 all had taken place as of January 1, 1998 and that the Company
operated as a consolidated entity from that date.

Pro forma revenues for the quarter increased 36% to $1,905,522,
from $1,401,297 for the quarter ended June 30, 1998. Pro forma net
loss for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 was $706,870, or $0.11 per
share as compared to a pro forma net loss of $728,380, or $0.11 per
share for the quarter ended June 30, 1998. The pro forma net loss for
both periods is attributable to non-cash amortization of goodwill
resulting from the acquisitions of the five ISPs by BiznessOnline.com
in 1999. Pro forma EBITDA decreased from $65,425 in 1998 to $11,314
for the quarter ended June 30, 1999. This decrease was a result of
increased advertising compared to 1998 and administrative costs
associated with integrating the combined companies.

Pro forma revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1999
increased 33% to $3,778,948, from $2,835,219 for the same period of
1998. Pro forma net loss for the six month period ended June 30, 1999
was $1,244,765, or $.18 per share, as compared to a pro forma net loss
of $1,261,676, or $.18 per share for the six months ended June 30,
1998. The pro forma net loss for both periods is attributable to
non-cash amortization of goodwill. EBITDA for the six months ended
June 30, 1999 was $283,532, as compared to $318,644 for the same
period in 1998. This decrease was a result of increased advertising
compared to 1998 and administrative costs associated with integrating
the combined companies. Subscribers increased 35% from 17,656 as of
June 30, 1998 to 23,766 as of June 30, 1999.
