TRANSACT TECHNOLOGIES REPORTS
SECOND QUARTER 2007 RESULTS

Hamden, CT, August 6, 2007 – TransAct Technologies Incorporated (NASDAQ: TACT), a leading producer of market specific printers for transaction-based industries worldwide, today announced financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007.

Revenues for the second quarter of 2007 were $13.9 million compared to $16.9 million in the same period a year ago. The Company recorded net income of $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2007, compared to $0.9 million in the same period of 2006. Net income per share for the three months ended June 30, 2007 was $0.03 per diluted share compared to $0.09 per diluted share in the same period a year ago.

Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2007 were $25.4 million compared to $33.3 million in the same period a year ago. The Company earned net income for the first half of 2007 of $0.1 million compared to $1.9 million in the first half of 2006. Net income per share for the first half of 2007 was $0.01 per diluted share compared to $0.19 per diluted share in the same period a year ago.

Bart C. Shuldman, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of TransAct Technologies, said, “We are encouraged by the progress we made in our business during the second quarter of 2007 given the weak domestic casino market. Our international gaming sales more than offset continued softness in our domestic gaming sales, which shows the success of our efforts in the international gaming market. Separately, we have made progress in POS and banking, as sales in this market increased compared to the first quarter of 2007, despite not having a large banking order in the quarter. Finally, TransAct Services Group continues to grow in the areas we are focusing on, consumables and services.”

Steven A. DeMartino, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of TransAct Technologies, commented, “We are very pleased with the results of our continued effort to lower product costs through initiatives to move production to Asia. Gross margin increased to 35.4% from 34.0% in the same quarter of last year despite lower sales. Our operating expenses were higher this quarter due largely to legal expenses related to the lawsuit with FutureLogic. We incurred approximately $175,000 of legal expenses associated with the lawsuit during the second quarter of 2007. Our balance sheet remains strong, as we ended the quarter with no debt and approximately $2.5 million in cash. Finally, regarding our stock repurchase program, we did not buy back any shares in the quarter because we were working on the FutureLogic lawsuit and other corporate matters.”

Mr. Shuldman continued, “Overall, while we believe that we are nearing the end of the domestic gaming slowdown, we expect to have one or two more quarters of mixed results. We are optimistic about 2008. We expect to see significant improvements in sales as ticket-in, ticket-out takes hold in Australia. We also anticipate continued gaming growth in Asia and improved sales in the domestic gaming market as server-based gaming gets closer to becoming a reality. In addition, we are encouraged by the opportunity for growth in gaming sales due to our efforts in what we term ‘off premise’ gaming.”
