Prestigious Hermes Creative Awards Go to ICF International

Strategic Communications Group Recognized for Excellence in Design, Implementation of Outreach Programs in Energy, Child Welfare, and Defense Markets

Hermes Platinum Award
Fairfax, Virginia, May 28, 2008 - ICF International (NASDAQ: ICFI) is the proud recipient of five prestigious awards in the 2008 Hermes Creative Awards. Administered by the Association of Marketing and Communications Professionals, the Hermes Platinum Award is one of the highest honors presented to creative professionals in traditional and emerging media.  

“We are truly excited to win these awards. Our creative team has grown significantly this year and we’ve been able to attract a 30-year advertising veteran, Chris Slingerman, as our creative director to lead the group,” said Kris Musumeci, senior vice president of ICF’s Strategic Communications group. “With Chris’s experience and leadership coupled with our talented team of art directors, graphic designers, and copywriters, I am confident that ICF will build on the great work we’ve done in the past and deliver even more outstanding, award-winning creative to our clients.”

ICF received Platinum Awards for its “Clean Air NY—Breathe It In” integrated marketing campaign for the New York State Department of Transportation, and for a “SmartGrowth” brochure created for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. ICF also won three Gold Awards for: a Youth Sponsorship Program Toolkit for the Department of Defense, a Children’s Environmental Health Excellence Awards integrated marketing campaign for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Office of Children’s Health Protection, and a self-promotion brochure for ICF’s Strategic Communications practice.

This year’s winners were selected from more than 3,500 entries from corporate marketing and communication departments, advertising agencies, public relations firms, design shops, production companies, Web-based innovators, and freelancers. Awards were given in the categories of advertising, publications, marketing/branding, integrated marketing, public relations/communications, electronic media, and pro bono.

Caution Concerning Forward-looking Statements
This document may contain “forward-looking statements” as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995—that is, statements related to future—not past—events, plans, and prospects. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “guidance,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “seek,” “should,” “will,” “would,” or similar words. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss our future expectations, contain projections of our future results of operations or of our financial position, or state other forward-looking information, and are subject to factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. For ICF, particular uncertainties that could adversely or positively affect the Company’s future results include but are not limited to: risks related to the government contracting industry, including the timely approval of government budgets, changes in client spending priorities, and the results of government audits and investigations; risks related to our business, including our dependence on contracts with U.S. Federal Government agencies and departments and the State of Louisiana; continued good relations with these and other customers; success in competitive bidding on recompete and new contracts; performance by ICF and its subcontractors under our contract with the State of Louisiana, Office of Community Development, including but not limited to the risks of failure to achieve certain levels of program activities, termination, or material modification of the contract, and political uncertainties relating to The Road Home program; uncertainties as to whether revenues corresponding to the Company’s contract backlog will actually be received; the future of the energy sector of the global economy; our ability to attract and retain management and staff; strategic actions, including attempts to expand our service offerings and client base, the ability to make acquisitions, and the performance and future integration of acquired businesses; risks associated with operations outside the United States, including but not limited to international, regional, and national economic conditions, including the effects of terrorist activities, war, and currency fluctuations; and other risks and uncertainties disclosed in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These uncertainties may cause ICF’s actual future results to be materially different than those expressed in the Company’s forward-looking statements. ICF does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements.
