            ACCESS WORLDWIDE PROVIDES EARLY INDICATION OF QUARTER AND
                            YEAR END REVENUE RESULTS

    ARLINGTON, Va., Feb. 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Access Worldwide
Communications, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: AWWC), a Business Process Outsourcing
("BPO") services company, today reported an early indication of its revenue
results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2006. These preliminary
results may be subject to significant adjustment as a result of the audit
process by the Company's independent auditors. Definitive fourth quarter and
year end results will be disclosed in the 2006 Access Worldwide Annual Report on
Form 10-K.

    Our revenues from continued operations were approximately $8.0 million and
$27.3 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2006, compared to
$4.7 million and $14.8 million for the three months and year ended December 31,
2005. We expect to see continued improvement in both our U.S. and Philippines
operations and overall operating performance during fiscal year 2007.

    "Two of our business objectives in 2007 will be to continue to grow our
business development team and our offshore operations. In Manila, we are at full
capacity in our first facility, and our second 350 production seat facility is
scheduled to start production in February. The addition of our second facility
will provide us with approximately 700 production seats in the

    Philippines," commented Shawkat Raslan, Chairman, President and Chief
Executive Officer of Access Worldwide. "We are very pleased with the performance
of our domestic operations and expect this positive momentum to carry into 2007.
Although we are showing improvement, we still have a lot of work to do. We will
work diligently to continue to improve performance and enhance our position both
on and off shore in 2007."
