PGV Velocity Portfolio Grp.,

Velocity Portfolio Group, Inc. (AMEX: PGV), a portfolio management company that purchases unsecured consumer receivables, announced today that it will be late in filing its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. The company was unable to file the Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission because it was not able to complete the preparation of the consolidated financial statements due to its revising of its expected estimated cash collection forecast methodology by extending the collection forecast useful life of its pools from 60 months to 84 months and adjusting the timing of expected future collections. The company expects to report a net loss for the year ended December 31, 2008 of $2,898,962, as compared to net income of $2,572,075 for the year ended December 31, 2007. The net loss was primarily attributable to an impairment expense of approximately $8.36 million on its consumer receivable portfolios. This impairment was the result of a combination of an extension of the collection curve from 60 to 84 months and an expected future shortfall in collections in certain pool groups against management's original forecast as a result of the current economic crisis. The company also expects to report that revenues in the year ended December 31, 2008 increased 6.1% to approximately $14,705,000 and that the company posted gross collections of approximately $17.7 million, compared to gross collections of $18.0 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, representing a 1.3% decrease.

The company filed a Form 12b-25 (Notification of Late Filing) on April 1, 2009 for a 15-day extension to file its Form 10-K, which was due on April 15, 2009. The company and its auditors are working diligently to complete the filing and the company intends to announce its fourth quarter and full year 2008 financial results and file its Annual Report on Form 10-K with the SEC on or prior to the end of business on Monday, April 20, 2009.
