HALIFAX ANNOUNCES
THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS

ALEXANDRIA, VA — February 16, 2010 — Halifax Corporation of Virginia (HALX.PK OTC) today announced its financial results for the quarter December 31, 2009.

Revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2009 were $7.7 million compared to $8.1 million for the prior year. For the nine months ended December 31, 2009, revenues were $23.0 million compared to $26.0 million for the same period last year. The decrease in revenues for the quarter and the nine months ended December 31, 2009 was attributable to the termination of certain large nation-wide enterprise maintenance contracts and lengthening sales cycles as a result of continued economic uncertainties.

The Company reported operating income of $85,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2009, compared to operating income of $318,000 for the same period last year. For the nine months ended December 31, 2009, the Company reported operating income of $323,000 compared to $982,000 for the same nine month period of 2008. The reduction in operating income was due to lower revenues as well as transaction costs incurred during the three month period associated with the Company’s delisting of its common stock and other deal costs related to the Company’s pending merger transaction.

The Company reported net income of $26,000, or $.01 per basic and diluted share for the three months and $253,000, or $.08 per basic and diluted share for the nine months ended December 31, 2009.

Charles McNew, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “The current quarter revenues increased modestly over the second quarter of the current year, although profitability was down due to transaction costs of approximately $91,000 for the quarter. We are pleased to continue our string of profitable quarters and we continue to remain reasonably optimistic looking forward, given the pressures in the maintenance service marketplace and the economic environment in general.”
