Precision Auto Care Announces Restatement of FY03 Results

LEESBURG, Va., July 21 -- Precision Auto Care, Inc. (BULLETIN BOARD: PACI) announced that it was restating its financial results for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2003. Revenue and operating profit did not change. Revenue was reported at $11.9 million and that number remains the same as does operating profit of $978,000. However, the gain that was associated with the Company's debt restructure is now reflected as an increase to paid in capital. Consequently, net profits dropped to $1.2 million. This change was made at the behest of the SEC.

"The Company initially treated the 2003 debt restructuring transaction as a "gain" transaction in its financial statements but the Company has now reflected this transaction as a "capital" transaction," said Robert Falconi, PACI's President. "This restatement does not have an impact on our total assets or our stockholder's equity. Moreover, it does not affect current operations or FY05 operating results which have been very positive."

Precision Auto Care, Inc.'s affiliate, Precision Franchising LLC, is one of the world's leading franchisors of auto care centers, with 424 operating centers as of July 21, 2005. The Company franchises Precision Tune Auto Care centers around the world.
