Barter Industry Leader Interviewed by Wall Street Transcript

Don Mardak Relates Growth of International Monetary Systems

New Berlin, Wis., January 26, 2005 -- In its January 24th issue, The Wall Street Transcript has published an in-depth interview with Donald Mardak, President and CEO of International Monetary Systems (OTC BB: INLM), in which he talks at length about the company's business strategies.

Mardak stated that International Monetary Systems has been growing both internally and through acquisitions, having acquired eleven barter operations during the past several years. This has resulted in steady annual revenue growth for the worldwide leader in business-to-business barter services.

In describing the company's recent financial history, Mardak said, "In 2001 we had a trade volume in the range of $16 million. We increased that to $24 million in 2002. Last year it was $32 million, and in 2004 it will be right around $37 million. That has generated corresponding revenues of $1.5 million, $2.8 million, $3.9 million, and in 2004 we should do about $4.6 million in revenue. So that's a fairly impressive record of growth. We've been growing at about 25% to 30% per year, much of it by acquisition."
