TORONTO – August 3, 2005 – Tucows Inc. (OTCBB: TCOW) today reported continued strong results for the second quarter of fiscal 2005, ended June 30, 2005.

Highlights for the second quarter included:

• A 13% year-over-year increase in net revenue to $12.0 million, the Company’s second highest quarterly revenue;

• Income from operations of $0.4 million;

• Cash flow from operations of $1.5 million;

• Net income of $0.5 million, the Company’s twelfth consecutive quarter of profitability; and

• An 11% year-over-year increase in deferred revenue to a record $36.6 million.

Net revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2005 increased 13% to $12.0 million from $10.6 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2004. This increase was the result of both a higher number of domain name registrations and a higher contribution from ancillary services.
