ModusLink Global Solutions' leadership in sustainability recognized by Supply & Demand Chain Executive

While not a new concept, sustainability is fast becoming a standard expectation of consumers, forcing manufacturers to seek viable, repeatable ways to improve their sustainability profile. Although conventional wisdom dictates that sustainability will increase costs, organizations are realizing that sustainable best practices can frequently result in increased cost savings.

"Our clients are turning to us to help them reduce both costs as well as the environmental impact of their supply chain processes," said Lorcan Sheehan, senior vice president of marketing, ModusLink. "Most consumer product OEMs want to be socially responsible. ModusLink's in-depth understanding of our clients' business processes and sustainable best practices allows us to work with them to identify and implement practical steps to realize their sustainability and cost objectives."

ModusLink's Sustainable Solutions Suite is designed to help supply chain practitioners minimize the environmental impact of their supply chain processes and reduce total supply chain costs. The Company evaluates an organization's carbon footprint and offers a solution set to reduce Green House Gas (GHG) emissions, reduce the use of plastics, increase the use of recyclable materials and minimize the amount of product and components sent to landfills. Through its work with the world's leading technology brands, ModusLink has developed sustainable packaging solutions that are designed eliminate 4,085 metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions from the environment every year; or a savings of 8,254 barrels of oil.

This release contains forward-looking statements, which address a variety of subjects including, for example, the expected benefits of the Sustainable Solutions Suite. The following important factors and uncertainties, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements: The Company's success depends on its ability to execute on its business strategy and the continued and increased demand for and market acceptance of its solutions and services, including the Sustainable Solutions Suite; the Company may not be able to expand its operations and capabilities in accordance with its business strategy; the Company may experience difficulties integrating technologies, operations and personnel in accordance with its business strategy; the Company derives a significant portion of its revenue from a small number of customers and the loss of any of those customers would significantly damage its financial condition and results of operations; the Company frequently sells to its supply chain management clients on a purchase order basis rather than pursuant to contracts with minimum purchase requirements, and therefore its revenue is subject to demand variability; increased competition and technological changes in the markets in which the Company competes; and risks associated with international operations. The occurrence of any of the foregoing factors may have an adverse effect on the Company's results of operations and financial results. For a detailed discussion of cautionary statements that may affect the Company's future results of operations and financial results, please refer to its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
