ORBIMAGE Announces Results for First Nine Months of 2005

Cash Flow and Leverage

As of September 30, 2005, ORBIMAGE had $253.3 million of cash and cash equivalents. Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 was $92.1 million. During 2005, ORBIMAGE received approximately $75.6 million of milestone payments from the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency ("NGA") related to the construction of the OrbView-5 satellite. Net cash used for investing activities were $119.4 million for the first nine months of 2005. Capital expenditures for the first nine months of 2005 were $112.7 million, much of which represents expenditures associated with the OrbView-5 satellite and related systems. ORBIMAGE also used approximately $6.7 million for the initial payment and other acquisition- related costs associated with the purchase of Space Imaging.

Net cash provided by financing activities were $220.0 million for the first nine months of 2005. During the first quarter ORBIMAGE received approximately $74.0 million of proceeds from the exercise of warrants by certain of its investors and from the issuance of shares in conjunction with a subscription rights offering which concluded in March 2005. Approximately $22.2 million of the warrant proceeds were used to redeem the Senior Notes on March 31, 2005 as discussed above. On June 29, 2005, ORBIMAGE Holdings Inc. issued $250 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Secured Floating Rate Notes due 2012 (the "Notes"). The Notes were offered in a private placement to certain qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. The purpose of the offering was to contribute the proceeds to the capital of its wholly-owned subsidiary, ORBIMAGE Inc., to be used for construction costs for the OrbView-5 satellite, to mandatorily redeem all of the outstanding Senior Subordinated Notes of ORBIMAGE Inc. that were to mature in 2008 and for general working capital purposes. The Notes bear interest at a rate per annum, reset semi-annually, equal to the greater of nine-month LIBOR or three percent, plus a margin of 9.5 percent. ORBIMAGE Holdings entered into an interest rate swap arrangement pursuant to which it has fixed its effective interest rate under the Notes at 13.75 percent through July 1, 2008.
