Homeland Security Capital chairman and CEO, said, "We continue to
be very pleased with the progress in our Nexus subsidiary, which
has posted its third consecutively profitable quarter. Nexus' cost
cutting efforts and focus on higher margin projects has already
paid off, and we believe will continue to yield favorable results.
Our Polimatrix subsidiary has redefined how police, fire fighters
and first responders detect radiological threats and because of its
efforts was chosen to supply 22,000 hand-held radiation detection
devices to the State of Illinois over the next years. We believe
this is the biggest award ever issued in the United States in the
hand-held radiation detection equipment industry. I believe these
favorable results create value for our company and especially our
shareholders." McMillen continued, "The sale of Security Holding
Corp resulted in a 22% return on investment for our shareholders.
Also, we recently invested in a special purpose acquisition
corporation, which raised $80 million in an IPO in late October. We
are in discussions with other target companies and will continue
following our business plan of acquiring companies that fit our
model. We hope to complete one or two transactions in the first
half of 2008." About Homeland Security Capital Corp. Homeland
