NEW YORK, May 9 PRNewswire-FirstCall — Enliven Marketing Technologies (Nasdaq: ENLV), a leading internet marketing technology company, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2008.

Enliven reported total revenue of $4.4 million for the first quarter 2008, a 38 percent decrease as compared to $7.1 million in the fourth quarter 2007 and a 33 percent increase as compared to $3.3 million in the first quarter 2007.

Yesterday Enliven and DG FastChannel announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement to merge in a stock-for-stock transaction.

Based on DG FastChannel's last reported sales price of $18.49 on May 7, 2008 (the date of entry into the definitive agreement) the proposed transaction values Enliven at approximately $98.0 million, inclusive of approximately $4.5 million based on the fair market value of Enliven's debt.

Patrick Vogt, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our team at Enliven is very excited by our announcement yesterday of our merger with DG FastChannel. By combining DG FastChannels' innovative media solutions with Enliven's unique Internet marketing and advertising technology, we will deliver a technology platform that will drive efficiencies and enhancements across the entire advertising value chain. Furthermore, we believe this merger is great for our company, customers and shareholders alike and are delighted to have structured this transaction in a manner that will allow Enliven shareholders to participate in the combined company's future growth. Together, DG FastChannel and Enliven will meet a wider set of customer needs and have a significantly greater opportunity to grow and expand into the emerging advertising markets. We look forward to working closely with Scott Ginsburg and his team."
