CHYRON REPORTS IMPROVED THIRD QUARTER 2005 RESULTS

MELVILLE, N.Y. - November 8, 2005 - Chyron Corporation (OTCBB: CYRO) today announced that for its third quarter, the Company generated revenues of $6.6 million and net income of $0.5 million, which brought the Company into profitability on a year-to-date basis. For the first nine months of 2005, revenues were $18.3 million and the Company showed net income of $11 thousand.

Third quarter revenues of $6.6 million were an increase of $0.3 million or five percent over the $6.3 million reported for the same quarter last year. The revenues included approximately $0.1 million in sales from the Company's new ChyTV product line, which launched in the first quarter of this year. Nine-month revenues of $18.3 million, including $0.2 million for the ChyTV product line, were $1.4 million or eight percent higher than the $16.9 million reported for the first nine months of 2004.

CEO and President Michael Wellesley-Wesley commented, "The year-over-year increase in third quarter broadcast graphics revenues is encouraging. This growth coupled with tight expense controls resulted in the highest reported quarterly operating profit in several years. Our performance should continue to improve as ChyTV products begin to gain market acceptance and we continue to achieve further gains in broadcast graphics market share."

"At present the profitability of our broadcast graphics business is being obscured to some extent by the startup costs associated with our ChyTV business. Although ChyTV sales were flat with the prior quarter, the recent deployment of ChyTV's video alert system for a high profile government facility gives me confidence that ChyTV will soon begin to justify the $0.9 million expense attributable to the rollout of this product line in the first nine months of 2005," added Mr. Wellesley-Wesley.

The $0.5 million net income for the third quarter, which included a $0.3 million net loss from the Company's new ChyTV business, represented an improvement over the net income of $0.3 million for the third quarter of 2004. The $11 thousand net income for the first nine months was down from the $0.2 million net income for the comparable prior year period largely due to a $0.8 million net loss associated with the ChyTV business, which loss offset a slightly higher net income from the broadcast graphics business for the first nine months.

Gross margins for this year's third quarter were 60 percent and for the first nine months were 61 percent, the same as the prior year's comparable periods.

At September 30, 2005, the Company had cash on hand of $1.7 million and working capital of $2.6 million. For the nine months ended September 30, net cash of $0.2 million was used in operating activities, $0.3 million was provided by investing activities and $1.3 million was used in financing activities, primarily to retire early one-half of the Series C Debentures principal and accrued interest at the end of the first quarter. Excluding the cash used to retire Series C Debentures, the Company was cash positive for the first nine months of 2005.
