               Genesys Conferencing Reports Second Quarter Results

                    -Automated services reach 53% of revenue-

                      -Call center consolidation on target-

                        -Reaffirms 2002 EBITDA guidance-



MONTPELLIER, France, August 13, 2002 - Genesys Conferencing (Euronext: 3955)
(Nasdaq: GNSY), the world's leading conferencing specialist, today reported
revenue and earnings for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002.
All financial results are reported under French Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles (GAAP).



Highlights for the second quarter compared to the prior year period included:

         o  Total call volumes reached 282 million minutes, up 39%

         o  Continued acceleration of deployment of automated services: volumes
            increased 114%

         o  Closed two call centers and prepared for the closure of the third in
            August

         o  Negotiated new long distance contract

         o  Genesys Meeting Center now exceeds 120,000 seats



The results for 2001 reflect the combined performance of Genesys Conferencing,
Vialog Corporation, which was acquired by Genesys on April 26, 2001, and Astound
Incorporated, which was acquired by Genesys on March 28, 2001 as if these
acquisitions were completed on January 1, 2001.



Deployment of automated services continues to accelerate in the second quarter

Total call volumes were 282 million minutes for the second quarter, up 39% from
the prior year period. Automated services call volumes were up 114% from the
second quarter of 2001 and increased 16% from the first quarter 2002. Automated
services represented 52.7% of revenue and 71% of call volumes in the second
quarter compared to 34% of revenue in the prior year period.



Revenues decreased 2.5% to (euro)52.7 (US$52.5) million for the second quarter
of 2002, from (euro)54.0 (US$53.9) million in the second quarter of 2001.
Revenue was negatively impacted by the weakening U.S. dollar and the strong
shift to automated services which have lower per-minute rates, but generate
higher gross margins.



Gross margin, before non-recurring costs, expanded to 59.0%, a 190 basis point
improvement from the same period last year. The non-recurring costs consists of
(euro)1.2 million (2.3% of revenue) associated with terminating a U.S. long
distance contract and (euro)500,000 (0.9% of revenue) of duplicate personnel
costs related to the call center consolidation. During the second quarter, the
Company renegotiated a long distance supplier contract in the U.S. The Company
expects savings of approximately (euro)1.9 million in the third quarter 2002 and
(euro)2.3 million in the fourth quarter 2002, as a result of the new long
distance contract. To allow the Company to obtain maximum benefit from the lower
rates under the renegotiated contract in future quarters, the Company terminated
a contract with another long distance supplier in the second quarter which
required the Company to satisfy a minimum purchase requirement as a condition of
termination (costing approximately (euro)1.2 million).



Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), before
non-recurring charges noted above, increased to (euro)7.5 (US$7.5) million in
the second quarter, an increase of 56.8%, compared to (euro)4.8 (US$4.8) million
in the prior year period.



Michael E. Savage, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, stated,
"During the second quarter, we incurred (euro)500,000 in duplicate personnel
costs related to the call center consolidation and (euro)1.2 million from
additional long distance costs which enabled us to terminate a contract with a
more expensive long distance provider. Excluding these non-recurring costs,
EBITDA would have been 14.3% of revenue. With most of our call center
consolidation behind us, we now expect non-recurring costs to diminish
significantly in the second half of 2002." Mr. Savage continued, "With (euro)9.7
million of cash on hand as of August 9, 2002 and strong projected free cash
flow, we are comfortable with our debt service requirements and working capital
needs."



Genesys Meeting Center

Genesys Meeting Center has reached over 120,000 seats sold. Since its
introduction, Genesys Meeting Center has become the fastest growing web
conferencing service in the world, based on the number of seats sold. Francois
Legros, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "Large enterprises
continue to show a very strong interest in deploying Genesys Meeting Center for
enterprise wide applications. Our pipeline of opportunities looks very
encouraging."



Guidance for 2002

Management is updating guidance for 2002 as follows:

         o  Automated services are expected to reach between 60 and 65% of
            revenue in Q4 compared to prior guidance of 50%

         o  Revenue is projected to be between (euro)200 million and (euro)210
            million based on the acceleration of automated services deployment
            and unfavorable shift in currencies experienced during the second
            quarter from prior guidance of (euro)230 million to (euro)250
            million

         o  Management reaffirmed that 2002 EBITDA, excluding non-recurring
            costs, is projected to grow between 27% and 33%, on a proforma
            basis, compared to 2001.


Mr. Legros concluded, "While the continuing shift to higher margin automated
services has impacted our near term revenue, we expect the continued growth of
automated services, our new long distance contract and the realized savings from
the call center consolidation to have a positive impact on our second half
results."
