Second Quarter 2010 Results

Vuance Ltd. (the “Company”), a leading provider of Radio Frequency Verification Solutions, including active radio frequency identification equipment (“Active RFID”), completed its unaudited condensed financial statements for the second quarter period ending June 30, 2010.

As reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 23, 2010, during the quarter ended March 31, 2010, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Vuance, Inc., completed the sale of certain assets and liabilities related to the Company’s electronic access control market and Government Services Division, which included its Critical Situation Management System and Credentialing suites. Following the divestiture, the Company has focused its sales and marketing efforts on its core competencies, which include Active RFID technology and its PureRFid Suite, and on servicing existing projects, such as the agreement with a European country to provide an end-to-end system for a national multi-ID issuing and control system.

As of September 2010, the Company has not been in compliance with that certain convertible bond in the amount of $2,500,000.00, issued on November 16, 2006, as amended from time to time thereafter.

Second Quarter 2010 Selected Unaudited Financial Results

Revenues from continuing operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 decreased 13% to $1.9 million compared to $2.2 million in the year-ago second quarter. The second quarter revenues from continuing operations increased compared sequentially to the $1.3 million reported for the first quarter of 2010. The year-over-year decrease was largely driven by a decrease in revenues from the European International Airport Project, which were fully recognized through December 31, 2009 and from decrease in revenues from the European country. The quarter-over-quarter increase was due to an increase in revenues from the European country.

Gross profit from continuing operations decreased 2% to $1.44 million for the second quarter compared to $1.46 million for the prior-year second quarter. Gross profit margin for the quarter was 75% compared to 66% in the second quarter of 2009, and compared sequentially to 71% in the first quarter. The changes in gross profit margins attributed to changes in the Company’s mix of revenues.

Total operating expenses from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2010 were $1.8 million, compared to $1.4 million for the first quarter of 2010 and compared to $1.9 million for the second quarter of 2009. The quarter-over-quarter increase was mainly due to an increase in sales and marketing expenses associated with the increase in revenues.

The Company reported an operating loss from continuing operations for the second quarter of $407,000 compared sequentially to an operating loss from continuing operations of $519,000 for the first quarter of 2010 and compared to an operating loss from continuing operations of $439,000 in the year-ago second quarter.

The net loss from continuing operations for the second quarter was $552,000, or $0.10 per basic and diluted share (based on 5.7 million weighted average shares) compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $575,000, or $0.10 per basic and diluted share (based on 5.5 million shares) in the year-ago second quarter. Sequentially, the $552,000 net loss from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2010 compares to a net loss from continuing operations of $679,000, or $0.12 per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2010 (based on 5.7 million weighted average shares).

The Company's unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which presumes the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of operations. The application of the going concern basis is dependent upon the Company having sufficient available cash resources and achieving profitable operations to generate sufficient cash flows to fund continued operations. Should the Company fail to generate sufficient cash flows from operations, it will require additional financing to remain a going concern. The reported unaudited condensed financial statements are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP.
