SCOTTSDALE, AZ--(Marketwire - January 22, 2009) - EMTA Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB: EMHD), an energy company focused on the development of innovative fuel-based products to conserve energy, and maker of XenTx™, Synergyn™ and other engine treatment and diesel fuel efficiency products, announced today that its estimated revenues for the Company's third fiscal quarter topped $18.9 million. The substantial increase in top-end income is largely a result of EMTA Holding's successful acquisition of the consulting company Easy Staffing Solutions, Inc. ("ESSI"), which specializes in the human resources and other operational solutions for industrial-based businesses. ESSI, which has been a wholly owned subsidiary of EMTA Holdings since October 17, 2008, currently has an operating staff of 94, operates 26 offices in 10 states, and manages approximately 5,000 leased employees. ESSI's generated estimated revenues of $18,285,013 during the Company's third quarter, which ended December 31, 2008.

In addition to absorbing ESSI's quarterly revenue, EMTA Holdings was also able to pay off one loan from Sauk Valley Bank of $340,000, and it paid down another loan by $50,000. Also expected to be in the upcoming financial report is the fact that EMTA Holdings reduced past due IRS payroll taxes by $300,000, and made three payments of $22,800 on Burton Placement acquisition debt. In total, EMTA's acquisition debt of $8,900,000 was reduced by $758,400 during the quarter.

The fuel efficiency / lubrication product revenues generated by EMTA's XenTx and Synergyn product lines was $674,657 as compared to $310,102 for the same quarter last year, and the loss from operations reduced to $25,001 versus $771,642 -- an improvement of $746,641. The revolving line of credit (LOC) being provided to XenTX Lubricants Inc. by a regional bank was terminated as a result of the financial meltdown, and was eventually converted into a term loan by the Company.

Edmond Lonergan, President and CEO of EMTA Holdings, stated: "This has been one of the most challenging, yet rewarding quarters in the Company's history. Although our revenues have grown significantly, and we have reduced our debts, the Company still wrestles with some cash flow issues."

"I fully expect that the many expense reductions the Company has initiated over the past 75 days will begin to have an impact on margin in this operating quarter," continued CEO Lonergan. "Furthermore, the Company projects that by March, 2009, EMTA should be operating at a profit and be cash flow positive. This is an exciting growth period for our Company, and I want to re-assert that much of my efforts lately have been spent on increasing shareholder value so that our loyal investors can finally be rewarded for their support of the Company."

EMTA Holdings is projecting revenues for its upcoming fiscal year, which begins April 1, 2009, will likely exceed $124 Million with profits of at least $16 Million.
