Evolucia CEO Releases Shareholder Update

SARASOTA, Fla., Aug. 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Evolucia Inc., (OTCBB & OTCQB: ILED), a global leader in the development and commercialization of high performance LED (light emitting diode) lighting systems, released today the following update to shareholders from its Chief Executive Officer, Mel Interiano:

Dear Shareholders,

Today, we filed our 2^nd quarter 2013 financials that include revenues of just over $400,000.  This represents only a small portion of our current order backlog.  In order to begin fulfilling our backlog orders, some of our redesigned products required updated certifications from various organizations, including UL, CE, DLC and NOM.  Although this process delayed 2^nd quarter product fulfillment, our customers have remained committed to Evolucia, and we have not lost any backlog orders.  We have successfully rescheduled shipment dates with these customers, and are fulfilling backlog orders as certifications are awarded.

In concurrence with the release of our 3rd quarter filings on November 14, 2013, we will hold our first corporate earnings conference call and webcast for investors and shareholders on Friday, November 15, 2013 at 10 a.m. EST.  These conference calls will continue with each quarter going forward in accordance with the release of Evolucia's quarterly and annual securities filings.  Conference call and webcast instructions will be broadcast prior to the release of each filing.

We are currently working to align Evolucia with a full-service investment bank that has the relationships and experience to help guide us to the next level.  We are in discussions with multiple investment banks, and expect to select and finalize a formal agreement with one of these firms in 2014. The finalization of this relationship will be essential to our efforts of reaching a more expansive investment community and gaining institutional support for our securities.

I would like to thank our investors and shareholders for their patience as we finish building a foundation that will help to ensure our long term and sustained success.  We have added more than 150 new products over the last 18 months, and have hired 20 new experienced lighting professionals to support our growth.  In addition, we are already beginning to move into our brand new 61,000 square foot state-of-the-art facilities in Sarasota, Florida, and will host an open house later this year so that our shareholders and investors can experience the evolution of light firsthand.

The future is bright!

 Yours sincerely,

Mel Interiano

Chief Executive Officer &

Chairman of the Board
