MIAMI -- DRYCLEAN USA, Inc. (AMEX: DCU)  today reported results of operations for the Company's year ended June 30, 2005.

Revenues increased by 25.3% to $18,389,009 for fiscal 2005 from $14,672,265 in fiscal 2004. Net earnings increased 31.7% to $706,263 or $.10 per diluted share in fiscal 2005 from $536,217 or $.08 per diluted share in fiscal 2004.

The Company also announced that its Board of Directors declared a $.04 per share semi-annual dividend, payable on November 1, 2005 to shareholders of record on October 14, 2005.

Venerando J. Indelicato, Chief Financial Officer of DRYCLEAN USA, Inc., stated: "Fiscal 2005 was a very successful year with revenues and earnings increasing at double digit rates, mostly due to our expanded sales territory and increased sales staff." He also reported that cash flow continued to be strong enabling the Board of Directors to increase the semi-annual dividend to $.04 per share from the $.035 per share paid in May.

Mr. Indelicato cautioned that Hurricane Katrina may affect the first quarter of fiscal 2006 due to shipping delays from one of the Company's major laundry equipment and spare parts suppliers located near New Orleans. "While the first quarter of fiscal 2006 may be skewed," he said, "results for the entire year should not be materially affected."

DRYCLEAN USA, Inc., through its subsidiaries, is one of the nation's leading distributors of industrial laundry and dry cleaning equipment and steam boilers. Its subsidiary, DRYCLEAN USA License Corp., is one of the largest franchise and license operations in the dry cleaning industry, currently consisting of over 400 franchised and license stores in the United States, the Caribbean and Latin America.
