Radiant Systems, Inc. reports record second quarter revenues


Atlanta, GA, July 26, 2001--Radiant Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: RADS) today reported
financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2001.

Total revenues for the second quarter ended June 30, 2001 were $36.4 million, an
increase of 20.4% over revenues of  $30.3 million for the same period in 2000.
Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2001 were $70.4 million, an
increase of 12.4% over revenues for the same period in 2000 of  $62.7 million.
Net income for the second quarter ended June 30, 2001, was $1.0 million, or
$0.03 per diluted share, an increase of $400,000, or $0.01 per diluted share,
compared to net income of $600,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, for the same
period in 2000.  Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2001, was $1.4
million, or $0.05 per diluted share, a decrease of  $1.8 million, or $0.06 per
diluted share, over net income before extraordinary item of $3.2 million, or
$0.11 per diluted share, for the same period last year.

Mr. Erez Goren, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We are
pleased with our financial performance in the face of an evolving product line
and business model. We have signed contracts with a number of companies across
our markets, both domestically and internationally, and we


believe these contracts and the success of our solutions will drive growth in
revenues and profitability in the years ahead."

Mr. Goren continued, "The acquisition of Breeze Software Pty Ltd and our
agreement to acquire certain assets of Hotel Tools, Inc. have positioned us to
better serve and market our solutions internationally and to the hotel industry,
respectively. Both of these markets should contribute to our growth in future
years."

Mr. John Heyman, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, commented, "These
acquisitions are important for our long-term growth prospects. In the short-
term, we expect these acquisitions to be slightly dilutive, with the impact on
earnings per share approximating $0.01 to $0.02 per quarter for the remainder of
this year.  We believe this dilution is short-term and that these acquisitions
will be at least breakeven by the first quarter of 2002.  We view this dilution
as insignificant relative to the contributions we believe these acquisitions
will make to our Company's strategic efforts."

For 2001, the Company continues to expect revenues of between $150 and $160
million and earnings before non-recurring charges of between $0.15 to $0.19 per
share.  Additionally, for 2002 the Company currently preliminarily projects
revenues between $180 and $210 million, and earnings of between $.40 and $.60
per share.  The statements in this paragraph are forward-looking statements and
are based upon current economic conditions and assumptions involved with our
operations.

The Company will webcast its second quarter 2001 financial results conference
