SO. ST. PAUL, MN (May 7, 2007) -- Digital Angel Corporation (Amex: DOC), an advanced technology company in the field of rapid and accurate identification, location tracking and condition monitoring of high-value assets, today announced financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2007.

Revenue for the first quarter of 2007 was $16.0 million and the net loss was $3.5 million, or $0.08 loss per share, compared to revenue of $15.8 million and a net loss of $0.6 million, or $0.01 loss per share in the first quarter of 2006.

Digital Angel President and CEO Kevin McGrath commented, “I am pleased with the record revenues we reported in this first quarter and we have now increased our previously provided annual 2007 revenue guidance to $76-80 million. The significant investments we made in the fourth quarter of 2006 and first quarter of 2007, including the acquisition of McMurdo and our development contract with the U.S. Air Force, are essential to the future of our business and we expect to begin to reap the rewards associated with those investments beginning next quarter.”

The highlights for the 2007 first quarter included:

• The Company was awarded a multi-year contract worth up to $10 million with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for Passive Integrated Transponder (PIT) technology to be used in conjunction with an RFID antenna to monitor fish movement and stream and dam passage.
• The Company signed a multi-year exclusive distribution agreement with Schering-Plough Home Again LLC to provide electronic identification microchips and scanners as part of the HomeAgain™ Proactive Pet Recovery Network.
• The Company was awarded a $400,000 contract to design and develop the Harness Activation System that connects to the United States Air Force Jet Pilot Recovery Radio (URT 33). The Company won the initial contract in August 2006 to design and develop the URT 33 replacement radio.
• The Company won a $1.5 million order to provide the Swedish Air Force with a quantity of 600 SARBE 6-406 Personal Location Beacons. The Swedish Air Force also has an option for 200 additional units at a value of $500,000.
• The Company was awarded a $1.7 million order by the Royal Air Force of Oman to provide SARBE G2R Combat Recovery Radios to Omani Jet Fighter Pilots.

Subsequent to the 2007 first quarter, the Company completed its acquisition of certain assets and customer contracts of McMurdo Ltd., the U.K.’s premier manufacturer of emergency location beacons, from Chemring Group Plc. Digital Angel purchased McMurdo for approximately $5.7 million in cash (USD) and will have additional an deferred payment ranging from $0-$3 million (USD), dependent upon performance of the business following the sale.
