NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - August 6, 2009) - Evermedia Biometrics Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of The Evermedia Group, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: [ EVRM ]), joined teaming partners this week to discuss recently submitted bids and future business opportunities for the balance of the current year and fiscal year 2010. Collectively, Evermedia Biometrics and its teaming partners have presented bids to perform over $15 million in services, and if awarded, could begin work as early as the fourth quarter of 2009. As bids are currently pending, details relating to any potential contracts will not be announced until agreements and task orders have been formalized. Evermedia's management and its teaming partners have stated a high level of confidence in their pursuit of future awards.

In addition to the already submitted bids, the company and partners are currently preparing proposals to bid on several projects funded by the American Reinvestment Act. "Several states and municipalities have already identified projects within their jurisdiction to invest in infrastructure, explore enhanced security protocols for ID and medical record management and deploy next generation IT solutions in sectors such as banking and transportation," said Jonathan Sym, CEO of the Evermedia Group. "We have an outstanding group of hard chargers and have worked very diligently this year to identify winnable contracts and have forged several teaming agreements with top companies to expand our resources and capabilities. I look forward to updating our shareholders frequently with updates and progress as they unfold."

Evermedia has also entered into discussions with several highly specialized companies to expand their investment portfolio in related technologies and non-core assets as a means to diversify its holdings. Technology integration, intellectual property, consumer non-durables and some specialized retail sectors are the primary areas of interest. "Several industries have been depressed since the last quarter of 2008 and many are still struggling to sustain meaningful valuations. However, we are seeing some attractive investment opportunities and with the recent rise in our own market capitalization, we are exploring growth through acquisition as another avenue to increase shareholder value," Sym added.
