Second Quarter 2006 Results Release Scheduled for August 3rd

Tel Aviv, Israel, July 21, 2006 Scopus Video Networks Ltd. (NASDAQ: SCOP), a provider of digital video networking products, today announced that it will be releasing its second quarter 2006 results on Thursday, August 3rd, 2006, before the US market opens.

Revenue is expected to be about $12.5 million for the quarter with a loss per share, excluding FAS 123 impact, between ($0.04) and ($0.05). The lower than expected EPS results are primarily due to exchange rate related expenses as a result of the strong appreciation of the Shekel versus the US dollar during the quarter and higher than anticipated operating expenses. Gross margin in the quarter is expected to be around 49%.
