MILWAUKEE, WI – Catalyst International, Inc. (OTC: CLYS.OB), a global provider of customer-driven software and services that optimize the enterprise supply chain today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2003.

Revenues during the second quarter of 2003 were $6.7 million, an increase of 7.2% from revenues of $6.3 million in the first quarter of 2003 and a decrease of 22.6% from the $8.7 million in the second quarter of 2002.    The second quarter 2003 net loss, which includes $469,000 in separation and severance costs, was $1.5 million or ($0.19) per share compared to a net loss of $1.9 million or ($0.24) per share in the first quarter of 2003, and a net loss of $1.7 million or ($0.21) per share in the second quarter of 2002. Days Sales Outstanding were exceptionally strong at 44 days, down from 74 days at March 31, 2003. The Company ended the quarter with $3.9 million in cash as compared to $3.9 million at March 31, 2003 and $3.0 million at December 31, 2002.

“Our second quarter operating loss reached its lowest level in over two years,” said James B. Treleaven, President and CEO of Catalyst. “We continue to monitor revenues closely and anticipate that they will trend upward from here.”

Highlights of the second quarter include:

·

Released CatalystCommand 9.1, the first warehouse management solution that effectively combines support for both warehousing and flow-through distribution into a single product.  Other enhancements in this release include improved yard management  (YMS) and vendor quality management (VQM) capabilities along with enhanced SAP R/3 mappings.

·

Signed an agreement with The Aldo Group in Montreal, one of the largest footwear retailers in North America, to implement CatalystCommand 9.1, CatalystCommand Simulator, CatalystCommand Yard Management System (YMS), and CatalystCommand Vendor Quality Management (VQM).  This contract represents one of the largest opportunities in our industry this year.

·

Continued to strengthen the sales pipeline by focusing on opportunities to help companies leverage the power of their SAP systems, and to help existing customers achieve higher performance from their supply chains.  Four new customers signed in the quarter, plus one more already in the early part of the third quarter.

·

Signed an agreement with Daydots, a Fort Worth, Texas-based manufacturer and distributor of food safety products and solutions, to implement SAP LES and WM (Warehouse Management) software and to manage both the RF infrastructure development and its integration with automated material handling systems.  

·

Completed new installations during the second quarter for Dollar General, Fred’s, Medline, Snap-on and Sweetheart Cup, plus the first two installations of CatalystCommand 9.0 at Dixon’s in the United Kingdom and Sunbeam in Neosho, Missouri. These installations were delivered on-time and on-budget.

·

Continued to aggressively manage the business to take advantage of the efficiencies gained through process improvements and investments made during the last two years. As a result, we were able to eliminate 25 positions in the second quarter and reduce our quarterly break-even point by approximately $475,000.

Other Recent Events:

•

Effective July 1^st,  the Company closed its previously announced  acquisition of Catalyst Consulting, one of SAP AG’s global SAP LES (Logistics Execution System) implementation partners.  This move advances Catalyst’s unique strategy to deliver enterprise-centric solutions—especially within the SAP environment.  Financial results will be fully consolidated in the third quarter of 2003, and we expect the acquisition to be accretive.

Treleaven concluded, “Through careful management of resources, we have lowered our break-even point by approximately 50 percent since 2001.  We expect revenues to grow as we aggressively pursue new opportunities within the ERP environment in addition to our traditional market.  We look forward to improved financial performance in the second half of 2003.”

Catalyst will hold a conference call to discuss these results at 5:30 P.M. EST on August 14, 2003.  Investors and other interested parties may listen to the live Web cast by going to the Investor Relations page of Catalyst’s Web site at www.catalystwms.com.  You will need Windows Media, which can be downloaded from the site.
