  CLEVELAND, May 17, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --      
  SearchPath HCS, Inc. (Pink Sheets:SRCP), a leading Human Capital      
  Solutions Company, today announced an increase in net income and      
  gross profit during its fiscal 3rd Quarter ended March 31, 2010      
  compared to its fiscal 3rd Quarter ended March 31, 2009, as well as      
  from the cumulative first three quarters of fiscal 2010 compared to the      
  same period in 2009.      
       
  SearchPath, HCS, Inc. recorded $53,183 in net income during the 3rd    
  Quarter of 2010 compared to recording a loss of $120,722 during the    
  3rd Quarter of 2009. Additionally, during the nine months ended    
  March 2010, the Company recorded cumulative net income of    
  $49,786 compared to a loss of $500,354 during the nine months

  profit of $557,054 vs. $440,969, representing a 26% increase and    
  Net Revenues of $656,224 compared to $544,414, representing an      
  increase of over 20%.      
         
  The largest factor behind SearchPath HCS's increase in net revenues      
  during the first three quarters of 2010 vs. 2009 was a 59% increase in      
  Franchise Fees collected during this period which were $389,475 and      
  $244,725 respectively.      
         
  Additionally, SearchPath, HCS experienced a drastic reduction in      
  expenses during the 3rd Quarter of 2010 compared to the same      
  period in 2009, helping facilitate the Company's increase in net      
  income and gross profit. The Company's Operating Expenses were      
  $150,744 in the 3rd Quarter of 2010 vs. $259,229 during the 3rd      
  Quarter of 2009, representing a decrease of 42%.      
         
  "We are extremely pleased with our overall performance during the      
  last three quarters. Our efforts to increase revenue generation while      
  implementing cost control measures have resulted in a strong quarterly      
  performance. The economic climate of the last two years has been      
  very difficult, however the fact that our franchise royalty income,      
  which is one of our key performance metrics, has increased, clearly      
  demonstrates that SearchPath's training and operational platform is      
  sound," commented Thomas K. Johnston, Chief Executive Officer of      
  SearchPath HCS, Inc.      
         
  "The Human Capital markets as a whole are behaving in line with      
  historical trends where the labor market tends to be one of the first      
  segments to feel the impact of a recessionary market and is also one of      
  the first to rebound. It is our expectation that the overall employment      
  and staffing market will continue to strengthen as the global economy      
  continues to improve and organizations seek to develop and increase      
  staff," continued Mr. Johnston.
