New York, N.Y. - October 30th, 2002 - XML Global Technologies, Inc. (OTC BB:

for first quarter of fiscal 2003 or the period ending September 30th, 2002.

from the same period in fiscal 2002 and a 25% increase in revenue from the
previous quarter. The gross profit for the quarter was $271,012 representing
a gross margin of 85% as compared to 42% for the same period in fiscal 2002
and 66% for the previous quarter. Over the 12 month period costs have been

positive note with increases in both revenues and gross margins," said Peter
Shandro, CEO of XML Global, "as well a reduction in overall operating
expenses. We are now in a much stronger position to drive near term revenue
growth by focusing on our sales and marketing initiatives and our channel
sales partnerships. Our strategy of focusing on license revenues and
reseller channels has been clearly validated and will pave the way for
future growth. I am pleased with our results," continued Shandro, "as we
have made significant progress towards our goal of profitability without
hampering our long term growth potential."
