-- Advant-e Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: ADVC - News), a provider of Internet-based business-to-business electronic commerce services, today announced financial and operating results for the quarter ending September 30, 2005.

For the third quarter of 2005 the Company reported revenues of $1,143,058, a 24% increase over revenues of $920,038 in the third quarter of 2004.

"We are pleased with our continued growth in both revenue and earnings," said Jason K. Wadzinski, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Once again our revenue hit a new record and our net income for the third quarter increased by 37% over both the third quarter of last year and second quarter of 2005. Our history of revenue growth over several years and our profitability over the past nine consecutive quarters has resulted in a strong financial foundation which we intend to leverage to enhance growth in the coming years."

For the nine months ending September 30, 2005 the Company reported revenues of $3,258,931, a 25% increase over revenues of $2,610,655 in the same period in 2004. Net income for the period in 2005 was $390,324, or $.06 per share, compared to $342,212, or $.05 per share in the 2004 period.
