Invictus Financial Sells Operating Company

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Jun 11, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- Invictus Financial Inc today announced that the company has sold its operating business "Stockgroup Media Inc." to a group led by current management. The terms include the assumption by the management group of approximately $1.5 million in negative working capital and approximately $2.1 million in vendor liabilities.

In September 2008 the company hired Marlin & Associates to review all strategic scenarios for the company including a sale. The financial market collapse in late 2008 led to a significant decline in the Company's business. Even with significant cost cutting efforts and negotiations with vendors over the past year and a half the company was unable to change its working capital deficit. As a result of the decline in revenue and the impact on the Company's balance sheet, the Board has been unable to find a suitable buyer. Having carefully reviewed all alternatives, the Board has now determined that it is in the best interest of shareholders to divest of the operating business and pursue new business opportunities for Invictus.

The Board of Directors in accordance with the resolution authorized by the shareholders at the annual general meeting held December 31, 2009 has sold its wholly owned subsidiary under the following terms:

• Purchaser will assume the operating liabilities and assets of Stockgroup Media
• Purchaser will assume all employee severance liabilities
• Purchaser will provide administrative services to Invictus until the earlier of 365 days or until Invictus completes a private placement of any amount. Administrative services include:
• Office space
• Accounting services
• Filing services and fees
• Administrative support
• Purchaser will pay a royalty if applicable of 5% of all revenue over $4,000,000 in each 12 month period for 3 years to Invictus

Purchaser will be responsible winding down Stockgroup Systems (UK) Ltd. and Stockgroup Systems (USA) Inc. which have negligible assets and significant liabilities.

As a result of the sale Invictus will have no assets, a debenture of $ 231,519 due May 15, 2011 and approximately $22 million dollars in operating tax loss carry forwards. Marcus New has resigned his position as President and CEO of Stockgroup and will remain a Director of Invictus.

The board of directors will actively pursue new business opportunities for Invictus.

This transaction is subject to the TSX Venture exchange approval. Upon obtaining TSX Venture approval, Invictus will trade under the symbol - IVF.H.
