reported financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2006.

    Second Quarter 2006 Highlights:
    --  Consolidated revenue of $105.8 million
    --  Kanbay, excluding Adjoined, generated revenue of $72.8 million,
        14 percent sequential and 28% year-over-year revenue growth,
        respectively
    --  Third party revenue, excluding Adjoined, was $34.6 million, a
        21 percent sequential increase
    --  Diluted EPS of $0.18 is net of $0.03 for employee stock compensation
        expense
    --  Integration of Adjoined Consulting running ahead of schedule
    --  A total of  35 new clients were added in the quarter
    "We are exceptionally pleased with Kanbay's financial results for the
second quarter," commented Raymond Spencer, Chairman and CEO of Kanbay. He
continued: "We achieved this quarter's results based on strong execution
and favorable market conditions within both pre-merger Kanbay and Adjoined
Consulting's business models. We also made substantial progress integrating
the organizations in a timely fashion.
    "We have said repeatedly we would not take our eye off the ball and we
believe these second quarter results are proof of our ability to execute
our business plans while completing the bulk of integration tasks ahead of
our original schedule," Spencer said.
    Kanbay's third party revenue growth accelerated in the quarter due to
strong demand within the financial services industry, notably the need to
support and upgrade legacy systems and mission critical applications.
Discretionary spending trends are also strong as the industry seeks to
enhance revenue and increase operating efficiencies.
    Spencer added: "We also had strong revenue trends at Adjoined, coupled
with consistent execution, serving to drive solid operating results. Early
revenue synergies are being realized and this is strong evidence of the
strategic rationale for this transaction. We are very pleased with
Adjoined, its current and future growth prospects.
    "Our pipeline of existing and potential client opportunities is robust.
The market is highly responsive to our approach which delivers highly
efficient and domain-centered IT services and consulting solutions. We are
excited about the fact we signed 35 new clients in the quarter, the largest
number in our history," Spencer stated.
    Financial Review
    Bill Weissman, Kanbay's Chief Financial Officer, added, "We posted a
strong quarter of growth across all service lines. Of the $105.8 million in
consolidated revenue, $72.8 million was contributed by Kanbay, excluding
the Adjoined acquisition, and this represents an increase of 14 percent
sequentially and 28 percent year-over-year. Adjoined posted $33 million in
revenues in the second quarter, a solid performance.
    "We are particularly pleased with the growth of third party revenue in
the second quarter. Kanbay third party revenue, before Adjoined, grew 21
percent sequentially in the second quarter. We experienced good growth
across most of our existing client base and had 12 pre-merger Kanbay
accounts performing at a platinum level, up from 9 in the first quarter."
    Weissman added, "Our related party revenue from HSBC grew 9 percent
sequentially and 29 percent year-over-year on a comparable basis, another
quarter of strong performance.
    "Diluted earnings per-share after stock compensation expense was $0.18
in the second quarter," Weissman added. "While Adjoined was earnings
neutral in the quarter, after integration costs, amortization of
intangibles and interest expense, it was dilutive to EPS by $0.03 due to
additional shares outstanding following the transaction. Further, employee
stock compensation expense decreased EPS by an additional $0.03 in the
second quarter."
    Kanbay's second quarter earnings per share before stock compensation
expense and before the impact of the Adjoined acquisition was $0.24, which
was consistent with the first quarter, despite salary increases and high
visa costs, and compared to $0.19 in the second quarter of last year, a 26%
increase.
    Outlook and Guidance
    Regarding the third quarter, Kanbay anticipates total consolidated
revenues of at least $109 million in the third quarter. On a stand-alone
basis, Kanbay should achieve revenue of approximately $75 million while
Adjoined should contribute approximately $34 million in the third quarter.
This outlook reflects not only continuing growth in the business but also
the fact that projects at several accounts started sooner than anticipated
in the second quarter.
    Based on Kanbay's performance year-to-date and taking into account
revenue synergies, the company is increasing full year consolidated revenue
guidance from at least $385 million to at least $402 million.
    In terms of earnings, on a consolidated basis, Kanbay is targeting
third quarter 2006 EPS of $0.21 with a full year EPS of at least $0.81.
    Raymond Spencer concluded: "We have moved quickly to integrate our
organizations at multiple levels, including people and business processes.
Our goal is to move rapidly to manage Kanbay as a fully integrated
organization. Looking ahead, we feel highly confident that our early and
successful integration is just beginning to bring the rewards all Kanbay
stakeholders expect."

    Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
    In the text of this press release and the accompanying supplementary
financial information, Kanbay presents certain revenue measures excluding
the acquisition of Adjoined Consulting, all of which are non-GAAP financial
measures. The Company's management uses revenue excluding the impact of
these matters to evaluate the quarterly and annual growth of the company
before the impact of the Adjoined Consulting acquisition. This non-GAAP
financial information is provided as additional information for investors
and is not in accordance with, or an alternative to, GAAP. In addition, the
non-GAAP financial information provided may be different than similar
measures used by other companies. However, the Company's management
believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors,
potential investors, securities analysts and others so each group can
evaluate the Company's current and future growth in the services business
in the same manner as management if they so chose. Reconciliation from
revenue to revenue excluding Adjoined Consulting has been provided in the
accompanying supplementary financial information.
