Fieldworks Inc. Reports Third Quater Results

Eden Praire, Minn., November 15, 2000 - FieldWorks Inc. (OTCBB: FWRX) a leading solution provider and mobile computer supplier for demanding field applications, today reported 2000 third quarter revenue of $3.4 million as compared to the 1999 third quarter revenue of $4.8 million. For the three quarters ended October 1, 2000, revenue decreased from $18.3 million to $11.8 million over the same period last year. The decrease was due to cash constraints by the Company that delayed ordering of parts by our outsource partners and the subsequent delays in shipments. Additionally, the Company experienced delays in the introduction of its FW8000 workstation which negatively impacted sales for the first two quarters of fiscal year 2000.

The Company reported a net loss for the quarter of $7.3 million or $.82 per share as compared to the 1999 third quarter loss of $2.3 million or $.26 per share.
