Both companies expect their new strategic partnership will continue beyond the term of this initial agreement for an additional two to three years, in a comprehensive effort by the customer to expand this energy efficiency program to all of its existing stores, as well as its new locations and its franchisees. Terms of any such future work have not been negotiated.

“Servidyne developed this program in conjunction with our customer over the past 18 months, through a series of pilot demonstration projects and initial installations,” noted Todd Jarvis, President and CEO of Servidyne’s Building Performance Efficiency (BPE) Segment. “We estimate that this initial investment by our customer will yield its shareholders a return on invested capital in excess of 40 percent.”

Servidyne’s work to be completed under the agreement consists of lighting efficiency upgrades and installation of new controls that will automate the scheduling and operation of the retailer’s heating and cooling equipment. The new controls system and related software will provide the customer with a robust information dashboard that will detail energy consumption and operating conditions on a near real-time basis. Servidyne will also help each of the customer’s 600 facilities take advantage of any special financial incentives that may be offered by their respective electric utility providers, and utilize the new controls systems being installed to enable the retailer to benefit from other potential value streams, including utility-sponsored demand response programs. Servidyne will also track the resulting reductions in greenhouse gas emissions and calculate other environmental benefits as part of this contract.

“Servidyne currently is involved in similar pilot demonstration projects for other major customers, including manufacturers and retailers,” added Alan R. Abrams, Servidyne’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We hope to be able to expand those efforts into other large scale implementation programs in the future as well.”

Certain statements contained or incorporated by reference in this press release, including without limitation, statements containing the words “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “should,” and words of similar import, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements in this release include statements regarding the following matters: the Company’s expectations of starting its project work under the contract almost immediately and completing its work over the next twelve to twenty-four months; the expectation that the new strategic partnership between Servidyne and its customer will continue for an additional two to three years beyond the term of the initial contract, in a comprehensive effort by the customer to expand the energy efficiency program to all of its existing stores, as well as its new locations and its franchisees; the Company’s estimate that the customer’s investment will yield a return on investment in excess of 40%; and the Company’s hope of expanding other similar pilot demonstration programs for other major customers into large scale implementation programs in the near future. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other matters which may cause the actual results, performance, or achievements of Servidyne, Inc. to be materially different from any future results, performance, or uncertainties expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors affecting forward-looking statements in this release include, without limitation, the factors identified under the caption “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2009, as updated from time to time in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Servidyne, Inc. does not undertake to update these forward-looking statements.

At the Company’s core Building Performance Efficiency (“BPE”) Segment, third quarter revenues grew by approximately 23% over last year to $4.1 million, including revenues from energy efficiency projects that grew by approximately 84% to $2.5 million. BPE revenues for the nine months ended January 31, 2010, were $11.9 million, an annual increase of approximately 26%, including energy efficiency project revenues of $6.6 million that were approximately 86% higher than last year.

Commenting on the results, Alan R. Abrams, Chairman, President and CEO, stated, “I continue to be encouraged by the level of customer order activity at our core BPE Segment. New order bookings increased in each successive month from September 2009 through January 2010, as the BPE Segment received approximately $5 million in new orders during the third quarter from customers in both the private sector and the government sector. There is an overall increase in capital spending by a number of our customers, and we are beginning to see positive impacts from the long-anticipated growth in federal expenditures for energy efficiency upgrades of government facilities. These factors contributed to the quarterly increase in BPE customer order backlog, which by the end of the third fiscal quarter had increased by more than 22% from the end of the second quarter. We expect that these improving trends will continue in the fourth quarter and into next fiscal year. As a result, we expect that the BPE Segment will generate positive EBITDA and net earnings within the next two (2) fiscal quarters, as revenues continue to grow.”

The consolidated net loss from continuing operations in the third quarter was $538,904, compared to last year’s third quarter net loss of $472,800. However, last year’s third quarter net loss included one-time pre-tax other income related to the settlement of an insurance claim of approximately $285,000.

In January 2010, the Company’s Real Estate Segment transferred its interest in a small office building in Newnan, Georgia, to the property’s mortgage note holder, which satisfied in full the Company’s repayment liability under the mortgage, and generated a pre-tax gain of approximately $1.2 million in the third quarter ended January 31, 2010. As a result, the current year third quarter results include consolidated net earnings from discontinued operations of $658,886, or $.18 per share.

The Company also reported that it is currently marketing for sale its owned shopping center in Jacksonville, Florida, and has engaged a third party real estate broker to assist it in those efforts. Based on the range of prices contained in the initial non-binding offers that the Company has received from prospective purchasers, the Company currently expects to sell the shopping center in the near future at an acceptable price, and generate a gain on sale and substantial liquidity as a result. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to consummate the sale as currently contemplated.

In addition, the Company reported that the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend in the amount of $.01 per share, the Company’s 123rd consecutive quarterly dividend, payable on April 21, 2010, to shareholders of record on March 31, 2010. The Company also announced that the Board of Directors has extended the authorization to repurchase up to 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock during the twelve-month period beginning March 16, 2010, and ending March 15, 2011. Any such purchases, if made, could be in the open market at prevailing prices or in privately negotiated transactions.

“We are receiving positive returns on the investment in sales and marketing that we initiated last fiscal year, which should benefit our operating results over the next few reporting periods,” said Alan R. Abrams, Servidyne’s Chairman, President and CEO. “There is an overall increase in capital spending by a number of our customers, and we are beginning to see positive impacts from the long-anticipated growth in federal expenditures for energy efficiency upgrades of government facilities. These factors have contributed to the growth in our third quarter backlog, which we anticipate will be notably above the levels we reported in recent quarters, but less than last year’s comparable amount. Order activity remained strong in February, the first month of our fourth quarter, and I expect that these improving trends will continue for the rest of the current quarter and into next fiscal year.”
