IGO REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2009 FINANCIAL RESULTS

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., April 29, 2009 — iGo, Inc. (Nasdaq: IGOI), a leading provider of innovative portable power solutions, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2009. Total revenue was $14.9 million in the first quarter of 2009, compared with revenue of $18.9 million in the first quarter of 2008.

Excluding revenues related to business lines divested during and subsequent to the end of the first quarter of 2007 (handheld and expansion/docking), total revenues were $13.4 million in the first quarter of 2009, compared to $17.4 million in the same quarter of the prior year. According to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP), iGo must consolidate the operating results of Mission Technology Group, the acquirer of the Company’s expansion/docking business, into its financial results until such time as the Company’s financial interest in the performance of Mission Technology Group no longer meets the criteria for consolidation.

Net loss attributable to iGo, Inc. was $1.1 million, or ($0.03) per share, in the first quarter of 2009, compared with a net loss of $235,000, or ($0.01) per share, in the same quarter of the prior year.

Excluding non-cash compensation expense, severance expense, litigation settlement income in the first quarter of 2008, and the operating results of the divested businesses, net loss was $360,000, or ($0.01) per share, in the first quarter of 2009, compared to net loss of $348,000, or ($0.01) per share, in the first quarter of 2008. A detailed reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial results is provided in the financial tables at the end of this release.

Michael D. Heil, President and Chief Executive Officer of iGo, commented, “As expected, we saw a decline in sales due to the weaker economic conditions and retailers being more conservative with their inventory levels. We have taken appropriate steps to manage through the economic downturn by reducing expenses and headcount, which resulted in minimal cash burn this quarter despite the lower level of sales.

“We have also restructured our sales organization to reflect our strategic focus going forward. Our new structure will put us in a better position to launch our new netbook charger and iGo Green Technology products later this year, add more retail accounts, and increase our European distribution. Given the economic uncertainty and our transition away from our historical private label distributor, we expect to have limited visibility on sales levels over the next few quarters.

However, we expect cash flow from operations to be neutral to slightly positive for the foreseeable future,” said Mr. Heil.

First Quarter Product Area Highlights

• Unit sales of universal chargers for high-power mobile electronic (ME) devices, such as portable computers, were approximately 266,000 units in the first quarter of 2009.

• Unit sales of universal chargers for low-power ME devices, such as mobile phones, PDAs, MP3 players and digital cameras, were approximately 316,000 units in the first quarter of 2009.

• Revenue from the sale of power products for high-power ME devices was $9.7 million in the first quarter of 2009, a decline of 12.9% from $11.1 million in the same period of the prior year. High-power revenue in the first quarter of 2008 included $1.0 million from the OEM channel, which the Company no longer services. Excluding revenues from the OEM channel, sales of power products for high-power ME devices declined 5.7% in the first quarter of 2009.

• Revenue from the sale of power products for low-power ME devices was $3.7 million in the first quarter of 2009, a decline of 36.9% from $5.8 million in the same period of the prior year.

Financial Highlights

Gross margin was 30.9% in the first quarter of 2009, compared to 29.5% in the first quarter of 2008. Excluding the operations of the divested businesses, gross margin was 29.1% in the first quarter of 2009, compared to 27.7% in the first quarter of 2008. The increase in gross margin is primarily due to improved margin on sales of low-power products in the wireless and retail channels.

Total operating expenses in the first quarter of 2009 were $6.0 million, compared with $6.9 million in the first quarter of 2008. Excluding non-cash equity compensation expense, the operations of the divested businesses and severance expense incurred in 2009, operating expenses were $4.5 million in the first quarter of 2009, or 33.7% of revenue (excluding revenue from divested businesses), compared to $5.4 million in the first quarter of 2008, or 31.1% of revenue (excluding revenue from divested businesses).

Excluding assets of the divested businesses, the Company’s balance sheet remained strong with $29.3 million in cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments at March 31, 2009. The Company continued to have no long-term debt and had a book value per share of $1.21 based on 32 million common shares issued and outstanding at March 31, 2009.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Although the Company consolidates the operating results of Mission Technology Group, the acquirer of its docking/expansion business, for accounting purposes under U.S. GAAP, the Company believes that the discussion of operating results excluding the handheld and expansion/docking lines of business and non-cash equity compensation allows management and investors to evaluate and compare the Company’s operating performance on a more meaningful and consistent manner. In addition, management uses these measures internally for evaluation of the performance of the business, including the allocation of resources. These non-GAAP

financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP.
