NETWORK-1 SECURITY SOLUTIONS, INC. Dated: August 7, 2006 By: /S/ Corey M. Horowitz ------------------------------ Name: Corey M. Horowitz Title: Chairman & Chief Executive Officer EXHIBIT 99.1 ------------ FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Corey M. Horowitz, Chairman and CEO Network-1 Security Solutions, In (212) 829-5770 NETWORK-1 REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2006 FINANCIAL RESULTS NEW YORK, NEW YORK AUGUST 3, 2006-- Network-1 Security Solutions, Inc. (OTC BB: NSSI) today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. Network-1 reported a net loss of ($300,000) or $(0.02) per share for the second quarter ended June 30, 2006 as compared to a net loss of ($229,000) or $(0.01) per share for the second quarter ended June 30, 2005. Network-1 had no revenues during the quarter ended June 30, 2006. Network-1 reported a net loss from operations for the first six months of 2006 of $(616,000), or $(0.03) per share, compared with a net loss of $(960,000), or $(0.05) per share, for the first six months of 2005. Included in the net loss for the first six months ended June 30, 2005 is an expense of $500,000 incurred in connection with the Company's payment of additional purchase price in consideration for the restructuring of future contingent payments under its Amended Patent Purchase Agreement with Merlot Communications, Inc. Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $(616,000) or $(0.03) per share as compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of ($966,000) or ($0.05) per share for the six months ended June 30, 2005. At June 30, 2006, the Company had approximately $1,756,000 in cash and cash equivalents which management believes will be sufficient to fund its operations until December 2007, although there is no assurance that Network-1 will not have sufficient capital prior to such date. Network-1's patent infringement litigation against D-Link Systems Inc. and its corporate parent D-Link Corporation, Inc. of Taiwan involving the Company's Remote Power Patent is proceeding on a timely basis in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Tyler Division. During the second quarter, United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit issued an order refusing D-Link Corporation and D-Link Systems, Inc.'s request to transfer the litigation to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. As a result of the ruling, the litigation will proceed in Texas. A Markman hearing will be held on September 19, 2006 and a trial is set for March 9, 2007. "We are pleased with the progress of our litigation in Texas", commented Corey M. Horowitz, Chairman and CEO of Network-1. "It is important to recognize that the Markman hearing will be a significant event as we proceed to trial in March, 2007. While the outcome of the litigation is still uncertain, we have taken all the necessary steps to ensure that our case will proceed in a timely manner and that we have the capital required to protect our intellectual property." The Remote Power Patent relates to, among other things, the delivery of power over Ethernet cables in order to remotely power network connected devices including, among others, wireless switches, wireless access points, RFID card readers, VOIP telephones and network cameras. In June 2003, the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) approved the IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet ("PoE") standard (the "Standard") which has led to the rapid adoption of PoE. According to industry analysts, annual revenues for several of the markets adopting this technology each exceed or are projected to exceed $1 billion. About Network-1 Security Solutions, Inc.
