Franchise Services of North America Inc. announces Third Quarter Results for Period Ending June 30, 2007

    CALGARY, Aug. 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - Franchise Services of North
 America Inc. ("FSNA" or the "Company") announced today its third quarter
 results for the period ending June 30, 2007. Revenue for the nine months
 ending June 30, 2007 was USD $9.8 Million and net income was USD $307,821,
 after consideration of approximately USD $200,000 of one-time expenses
 related to the acquisition and development of revenue from the newly
 acquired insurance agency. Both were in line with management's
 expectations, and compare to revenue of CDN $473,029 and a net loss of CDN
 ($90,717) for the comparable period in the prior year.
     These numbers include only seven months of U-Save's results due to the
 November 2006 Reverse Take-Over (RTO) between U-Save Auto Rental of
 America, Inc. and the predecessor company, Rent-A-Wreck Capital Inc.
 Reference is hereby made to the company's filings on Sedar, at
 www.sedar.com, for a detailed description of the RTO and the related
 financial information. The Company also announced that unique visitors to
 the company's website (www.usave.com) continued to experience exponential
 growth in the quarter, resulting in triple-digit booking growth.
     "The newly acquired insurance agency, and the insurance platform in
 general, incurred a non-recurring investment of approximately USD $200,000
 to build the infrastructure for its anticipated MGA designation and the
 expansion of its menu of insurance products. The insurance division
 currently represents a significant percentage of the companies' revenue,
 and with this investment we anticipate realization of the revenue stream to
 begin its increase in the fourth quarter and into the 2008 fiscal year. The
 addition of this revenue stream will enable us to continue our efforts to
 expand our franchise network in North America for the U-Save brand and in
 Canada for the Rent-A-Wreck brand. In addition, we continue to identify
 strong interest in new franchises and currently have several quality
 candidates under consideration," said Robert M. Barton, Chief Operating
 Officer of the Company.
