The Company continues to experience declines in revenues from its market data services to the professional market.

Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 were $32,842,000 compared to $27,385,000 for the same period in 2005, an increase of 20%.

The increased revenues were principally attributable to Track ECN. The 2005 period includes after-tax income of $369,000 from telecommunications credits and the reversal of a judgment on sales taxes assessed. The 2006 and 2005 periods include after-tax gains of $1,066,000 and $637,000, respectively, from the sale of Innodata and Edgar online common stock.
