JERSEY CITY, N.J., Feb 17, 2005 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Crown Financial Holdings, Inc., (the "Company," Pink Sheets: CFGI.PK) today announced that Crown Financial Group, Inc. ("Crown"), the broker dealer subsidiary of the Company, will be contracting trading activities. So as to protect customer orders and effect an orderly contraction from trading activities, Crown announced that effective Thursday, February 17, 2005, they will request that their valued customers cancel all open orders and cease routing order flow to Crown.

Crown is voluntarily contracting its market-making activities while the Company continues to seek financing from a strategic investor or investors. While Crown regrets that we must inconvenience our customers in this manner, we are doing so to protect our customer's interests.

It is Crown's intent to return all open orders to the customers prior to the close of business on Thursday, February 17, 2005.

While Crown hopes to resume full market making activities in the near future, regrettably, there is no assurance that we will be successful in achieving our objective. Crown and its employees would like to express our heartfelt thanks to our trading partners for the support you have provided over the years, and the business you have entrusted in Crown.
