TRACK DATA REPORTS SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

Brooklyn, New York – August 14, 2009 – Track Data Corporation (Nasdaq: TRAC) today announced results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2009.

Revenues for the second quarter ended June 30, 2009 were $7,182,000 compared to $7,761,000 for the same period in 2008, a decrease of 7%. Net income for the second quarter of 2009 was $495,000, or $.24 per share, compared to net income of $551,000, or $.26 per share, in 2008. The Company’s Track ECN revenues decreased approximately $300,000. In November, 2008, the NSX changed its pricing for accessing its order delivery system pursuant to which it no longer pays rebates for adding liquidity to its book. As a result, Track ECN can only pay its subscribers for adding liquidity when there is an internal match on its own book. This change resulted in further deterioration of the trading volume on the Track ECN. The Company is presently exploring other venues for displaying its orders. Until such time there is no expectation of increasing volume of trading. Market data revenues decreased approximately $750,000 in 2009 compared to 2008. For several years, the Company has experienced a decline in revenues from its market data services to the Professional Market segment due principally to staffing reductions in the securities industry, the use by customers of internally developed services, or lower priced services that are offered by the Company or other vendors. This trend has continued in 2009, negatively impacting revenues and profits. Broker-dealer commissions increased approximately $450,000 in 2009 compared to 2008.

Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2009 were $13,801,000 compared to $15,531,000 for the same period in 2008, a decrease of 11%. Net income for the first half of 2009 was $491,000, or $.23 per share, compared to net income of $941,000, or $.45 per share, in 2008. The Company’s Track ECN revenues decreased approximately $750,000 for the reasons stated above. Market data revenues decreased approximately $1,400,000 in 2009 compared to 2008 for the reasons stated above. Broker-dealer commissions increased approximately $400,000 in 2009 compared to 2008.

All per share information has been adjusted to reflect a one-for-four reverse stock split that became effective on May 27, 2009.
