Rosetta Helps hhgregg Drive Results With New eCommerce Site;

PRINCETON, N.J., Nov. 9, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — Rosetta, which operates as an
independent brand in the Publicis Groupe of global agencies and is one of the
nation’s largest digital and direct interactive agencies, together with hhgregg
(NYSE: HGG), the Indianapolis-based retailer of appliances and electronics,
announced the launch of a mobile eCommerce site to complement the re-designed
hhgregg.com website.

hhgregg began working with Rosetta in early 2011 to develop an eCommerce
platform that would provide the same high level of customer service hhgregg is
known for in their stores and to enable the company to compete more effectively
with national multi-channel retailers. Using IBM WebSphere Commerce, hhgregg and
Rosetta created a superior online experience providing the following new
features:

— Instant access to in-store and online product availability;
— Access to hhgregg’s lowest prices on appliances and electronics;
— Enhanced navigation and guided search;
— Personalized recommendations;
— Expanded learning content, product tours and guides;
— Additional shipping options, including pick-up in the store;
— Access to real-time order tracking.

Since the launch of the site in late August, hhgregg has seen a double digit
increase in site visits, largely driven by growth from natural search, and an
increase in new stores in the markets of South Florida and Chicagoland.

“Improving hhgregg.com is an important part of our strategy, and we know our
customers expect a great purchase experience online as well as in store,” said
Dennis L. May, President and CEO of hhgregg. “In Rosetta, we’ve found a partner
with a strong combination of web expertise, creative vision and technological
know-how to help us deliver what our customers desire.”

“hhgregg was founded on caring, personal service, and we’ve helped them create a
consolidated eCommerce platform that reflects those values,” said John Wade,
Rosetta Associate Partner. “We designed this site to help them reach their
customers in a more innovative and personally relevant way, and we’re pleased to
see that it’s making an immediate impact.”
