ONSM0.62, -0.03, -4.6% ) , a leading online service provider of live and on- demand digital media communications and applications, announced today it held a conference call on August 22nd to discuss its fiscal 2006 third quarter and year-to-date financial results and latest business developments.
The presentation by Randy Selman, President and CEO, and Robert Tomlinson, CFO, both of Onstream Media, included the following key points:

- Fiscal 2006 third quarter revenues increased by approximately 13% over
the corresponding prior year quarter to approximately $2.3 million.
Both Digital Asset Management Group and Webcasting Group revenues
increased during the recently ended quarter, as compared to the
corresponding quarter of the prior year as well as the immediately
preceding quarter of this year.

- The Company's net loss decreased by approximately 49% to approximately
$1.2 million, or an $0.08 loss per share, in the third quarter of
fiscal 2006, as compared to a net loss of approximately $2.3 million,
or a $0.27 loss per share, for the comparable prior year period. A
primary contributor to the Company's fiscal 2006 third quarter net loss
was non-cash expenses, net of non-cash income, totaling approximately
$800,000. These net non-cash expenses include the amortization and
write-off of unamortized discount on convertible debentures,
depreciation, amortization, professional fees paid with shares and
options, interest paid with shares and valuation of derivatives under
EITF 00-19.

- The cash portion of the Company's net loss was approximately $405,000
in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 compared to approximately $636,000
in the same quarter of last year, and approximately $912,000 in the
immediately preceding quarter of this year, representing reductions of
approximately 36% and 56%, respectively. The cash portion of the
Company's net loss is calculated as the Company's net loss less the
impact of non-cash expenses, net of non-cash income, included in that
net loss.

- For more than a year, America Online (AOL) has utilized Onstream
Media's video indexing technology for the AOL(R) Video archive on the
AOL(R) service and the AOL.com portal, and during the recently ended
quarter, extended its contract with the Company.

- Included in Digital Asset Management Group revenues for the quarter was
approximately $120,000 from a new client, Discovery Education, a
subsidiary of Discovery Communications, Inc., the leading global real
world and knowledge-based media company, which selected Onstream Media
to process content for their new online education service. Onstream
Media received a $360,000 non-refundable initial payment in connection
with this contract of which $90,000 was recognized in the current
quarter (as part of the total $120,000 revenues) and the remaining
$270,000 will be recognized as revenue during the remainder of this
calendar year. Onstream expanded its encoding operations to ramp up the
volume of deliveries under the contract, and as a result, expects to
significantly increase revenues for at least the remainder of this
calendar year.

- The Company launched an extension to its Visual Webcaster Platform with
a new lead generation Webinar service. Webinars are becoming an
increasingly popular and cost-effective tool in the overall sales and
marketing functions of many companies. Onstream Media's new service
enables clients to hold real-time virtual seminars over the Internet.
In its own test of the Webinar service, from a single event and a
marketing budget of less than $5,000, Onstream Media received 377
registrations and 197 qualified leads. From those leads, the Company
has set 27 appointments, of which the first 11 meetings have generated
9 proposals valued at over $150,000 and signed contracts for $30,000.

- Onstream increased the capacity of its Digital Media Services Group to
meet expanding demand from its clients and more readily scale its
business, including the investment of more than $700,000 during the
quarter on capital expenditures for hardware, software and facilities.
The Company continues to enhance the DMSP, including the recent
development of new services including ad insertion, upgrades to its
smart encoding technology and new video player design.

- The Company's balance sheet improved due to its discontinuance of
rescission accounting as of June 30, 2006. As a result, the Company
reflected an increase in its additional paid-in capital of
approximately $7.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2006,
$5.9 million of which was recognized in the recent quarter.



Mr. Selman stated, "We believe that increasing revenues is the key to eliminating our ongoing cash burn rate and the results of this quarter signify we are making good progress in that regard. We believe that approximately $3.0 million in quarterly revenues will allow us to reach cash flow breakeven, and we are now closer to achieving this goal. Increased sales activity from existing clients, as well as the realization of deferred revenues and new sales from recently awarded contracts, should continue to grow our revenues for further improvements at least through calendar 2006."
