&ndash;</B> Aware, Inc. (NASDAQ: AWRE), a leading global provider of biometrics software and solutions, today reported financial
results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2018.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Revenue for the first quarter of 2018 was
$2.9 million, a decrease of 30% compared to $4.2 million in the same quarter last year. Operating loss in the first quarter of
2018 was $0.7 million compared to operating income of $0.2 million in the first quarter of 2017. The decrease in revenue and resulting
operating loss were primarily due to: (i) lower biometrics software license sales; (ii) lower service revenue, and (iii) no income
from a patent arrangement that were partially offset by no cost of software licenses and lower cost of services.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Net loss in the first quarter of 2018 was
$0.5 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, which compares to net income of $0.3 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, in the same
period a year ago.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Kevin Russell, Aware&rsquo;s chief executive
officer and president, said &ldquo;Our results for the first quarter were below our expectations. We have a number of opportunities
that we are working on that we were not able to close in the first quarter. Our pipeline for 2018 looks promising, but we are unable
to predict when opportunities will result in revenue. We continue to see interest in our product offerings in the government, commercial
and mobile markets.&rdquo;</P>
