FUTUREMEDIA ANNOUNCES ACCELERATION OF GROWTH FUNDING
FROM YORKVILLE ADVISORS

Achievement of Financial Milestone Results in Early Funding Payment of $1.4 Million

Names Deloitte & Touche LLP as Independent Auditor

Brighton, England - November 13, 2007 - Futuremedia plc (NasdaqCM: FMDA), a leading e-learning provider and design, exhibition and events agency, today announced that that it has received an accelerated funding payment from Yorkville Advisors in association with the $6 million funding agreement announced August 23, 2007. The funding payment of $1.4 million was accelerated as a result of Futuremedia exceeding certain financial milestones. The funding was originally set to be delivered to the Company in three monthly instalments through January 15, 2008.

As per its agreement with Yorkville the four monthly funding tranches from October 15, 2007 through January 15, 2008 were tied to the Company achieving total revenue of $3 million for the fiscal first quarter of 2008 ended September 30, 2007. In the first quarter of 2008 Futuremedia generated revenue of $3.68 million or 22.6% above the target. Since entering the agreement in August, Futuremedia has received $5.1 million in funding from Yorkville.

Chief Executive Officer, George O'Leary, commented, "This advanced funding payment is a strong indication of the support and confidence Yorkville has for the Company. I am very proud that our new management team was given a specific financial target and stepped up to beat it by more than 20%. We continue to make progress on our strategic plan, specifically with regard to our goals of growing the company and becoming cash flow positive in our fiscal third quarter ended March 31, 2008."

The Company also announced in a 6-K filing on October 31, 2007 that it has named Deloitte & Touche LLP as its independent auditor replacing BDO Stoy Hayward LLP. Mr. O'Leary, commented, "We are pleased to have a company of Deloitte & Touche's stature perform our 2007 audit."
