KEW GARDENS, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 23, 2000--DAG Media, Inc. (NASDAQ: DAGM - news), the leading independent print and online publisher of yellow page directories, today announced that National Investors Council (NIC) has issued a ``strong buy'' recommendation on DAGM by Skip Nordstrom resulting from the recent exciting developments in the Company. The report states estimated earnings at $0.80 per share in 2000 and a long-term price target at $16. The full report is available at http://www.nicstock.com/html/2000february.html, with investment highlights featured at http://www.nicstock.com/ Hardcopies of the report will be available in three days; for reprints, please contact Skip Nordstrom at 714-751-7547 or fax at 714-751-6532. The newsletter expects DAG Media to continue its rapid growth momentum by expanding its value-added service offering, especially in the Internet and e-commerce arenas, and by introducing a greater number of yellow page directories. DAG Media is scheduled to launch its NewYellow Manhattan directory this month, thus expanding beyond its proven capabilities in the special interest yellow page directory market. New Yellow will list the websites and email addresses for businesses published in the listing at no charge, and will also provide free email addresses to those companies that do not already have one. The new email and web publishing features, as well as a myriad of other breakthrough services provided by New Yellow directory, make DAG Media a formidable challenger to Bell Atlantic's dominance in the $300 million yellow page directories industry in New York. Rapid market penetration is also expected to be driven by the overwhelming cost advantage DAG Media is offering yellow page advertisers. New Yellow provides advertisers the same exposure as that of Bell Atlantic's Yellow Pages, but at a 70% discount. DAG Media, Inc. currently publishes and distributes two directories in print and online that service the New York metropolitan area and northern New Jersey. The Company also provides value-added products such as referral and tourist information hotlines as well as the web portal http://www.porty.com/, which offers free nationwide directory information, Internet voice and fax telephony, and a variety of other services.
