This news release contains forward-looking information. The forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be significantly impacted by certain risks and uncertainties described herein and in Versar's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the fiscal year ended June 26, 2015, as updated from time to time in the Company's periodic filings.

SIDOTI & COMPANY, LLC is Wall Street's preeminent provider of equity research generally focused on companies with market capitalizations of under $3 billion. We cover over 250 companies across a range of industries. The companies covered by our traditional research typically have a history of profitability, maintain strong balance sheets, and tend to have limited, if any, coverage by other Wall Street firms.

For more information, please contact Investor Relations at:

6850 Versar Center, Suite 201 Springfield, VA 22151 703.642.6706 [e-mail] www.versar.com

Our approach affords institutional investor clients a combination of high-quality research, a small- and micro-cap company focused nationwide sales effort, broad access to corporate management teams, and extensive trading support. We serve nearly 500 institutional clients in the U.S., Canada and the U.K., including many leading managers of portfolios with $200 million to $2 billion of assets. We believe that these asset managers are generally underserved by other larger brokerage firms that typically target larger managers.

Sidoti also hosts a fee-based biannual Emerging Growth Convention in New York, and is a provider of company sponsored research.

We are a broker-dealer registered with the SEC and a FINRA member firm. We provide a broad range of securities-related services. In addition to our high-quality research, our sales and trading services are distinguished by prompt execution, a competitive commission structure and access to smart order routing that utilizes all available sources of liquidity. From time to time, we are invited to participate as an underwriter, dealer, placement agent or initial purchaser in securities offerings for issuers for which we provide research coverage. Given our knowledge of the companies we cover, we believe that we are able to contribute to these capital-raising transactions. We also assist our issuers with stock repurchase programs, block trades and organized (Rule 10b5-1) trading plans.
