inTEST REPORTS 2013 THIRD QUARTER RESULTS 

MOUNT LAUREL, NJ, October 30, 2013 - inTEST Corporation (NYSE MKT: INTT), an independent designer, manufacturer and marketer of temperature management products and semiconductor automatic test equipment (ATE) interface solutions, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2013.

2013 Third Quarter

• Third quarter bookings were $10.4 million, compared with second quarter 2013 bookings of $11.0 million, and third quarter 2012 bookings of $8.7 million; 36% of third quarter 2013 bookings were derived from non-semiconductor test.
• Third quarter net revenues were $9.9 million, compared with second quarter 2013 net revenues of $11.2 million, and third quarter 2012 net revenues of $10.8 million; 37% of third quarter 2013 net revenues were derived from non-semiconductor test.
• Third quarter gross margin was $4.8 million, or 48%, compared with second quarter 2013 gross margin of $5.5 million, or 49%, and third quarter 2012 gross margin of $4.8 million, or 44%.
• Third quarter net income was $1.1 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, compared with second quarter 2013 net income of $1.0 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, and third quarter 2012 net income of $664,000, or $0.06 per diluted share.
• Cash and cash equivalents of $16.8 million at September 30, 2013 increased by 4% as compared with June 30, 2013.

Commenting on financial results for the third quarter, Robert E. Matthiessen, president and chief executive officer, noted, "The industry slowdown experienced in the second quarter continued into the third quarter. While this led to an unanticipated decline in overall bookings and net revenue, we maintained solid profitability for the quarter, delivering earnings per share of $0.10, which was at the high end of our guidance range. Non-semiconductor test revenue increased both in terms of absolute dollars and as a percent of revenue, increasing 44% sequentially and representing 37% of total third quarter net revenues. In addition, we have a solid balance sheet, are generating cash, and continue to carry no debt."

Fourth Quarter 2013 Financial Outlook:
Mr. Matthiessen said, "Looking forward, we are encouraged by quote activity which gives us a positive outlook for 2014. We had forecast that our orders and net revenues in the second half of 2013 would be stronger than those of the first half, with a sequential increase in revenues in the fourth quarter. While we still expect this to be the case with respect to orders and currently anticipate a positive book to bill for the fourth quarter, we now see revenue growth resuming in 2014."

We expect that net revenues for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013 will be in the range of $8.5 million to $9.5 million and that net earnings will range from $0.02 per diluted share to $0.06 per diluted share. Our outlook is based on our current views with respect to operating and market conditions and customers' forecasts, which are subject to change.

Mr. Matthiessen concluded, "Our long-term objective is to grow and evolve inTEST Corporation into a broad-based thermal solutions test company as we continue to execute on our differentiated product strategy. We are well positioned to meet the evolving needs of our current and future customers with a wide range of thermal test products and custom solutions. Today, inTEST has evolved into a thermal test solutions provider, offering a comprehensive product portfolio capable of addressing growth markets in both the semiconductor and non-semiconductor markets which include: automotive, consumer electronics, defense/aerospace, industrial, energy, and telecommunications. We believe the conditions for our long-term success remain firmly in place."
