PhotoChannel Releases 2nd Quarter FinancialsRecord Revenue for the 6 months ending March 31, 2007VANCOUVER, BC – May 30, 2007, PhotoChannel Networks Inc. (TSX – V: PN; OTCBB: PNWIF) (“PhotoChannel” or the “Company”), the leading innovator in online media solutions for retailers, reports its financial results for the six month period ending March 31, 2007. The following discussion is qualified in its entirety by reference to the company’s financial statements and accompanying management discussion and analysis for the six months ended March 31, 2006, which are accessible on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. During the first six months, the Company saw continued year over year growth from its retail partners’ online photofinishing offerings. The Company believes this will continue throughout 2007, as retailers attempt to maintain and increase their market share in this new consumer offering. The marketplace, where PhotoChannel provides one of the dominant online solutions for photofinishers, continues to accelerate rapidly. The unique features of the new PNI Digital Media Platform, such as the up-sell to higher margin items, is providing retailers with opportunities to expand their service capabilities to their consumers. “PhotoChannel is pleased to report the strongest six months in its history, as we continue to experience triple digit transaction revenue growth year over year” states Peter Fitzgerald, Chairman and CEO of PhotoChannel. “During the first six months the Company invested, both time and money, on the development of the new PNI Digital Media platform, which now can offer both a best in class photo and music site experience for our retailers and their customers. With this new platform we continue to be fully committed to our photo offering and customer base, as we recognize that we can now compete with anyone in the world. We hope with the launch of our new music offering that we will further differentiate ourselves from our competition with the ease and ability to offer other forms of digital content. We are looking forward to the continued growth of revenues from both existing and new retailers.” Fiscal Highlights For Q2 – FY07 PhotoChannel reports:
