(NYSE: VSH), announced today that net revenues for the fiscal quarter ended July 1, 2006 were $660,523,000, compared to $582,388,000 for the fiscal quarter ended July 2, 2005, an increase of $78.1 million or 13.4%. Net earnings for the fiscal quarter ended July 1, 2006 were $42,842,000, or $0.22 per diluted share, compared with net earnings for the fiscal quarter ended July 2, 2005 of $9,716,000, or $0.05 per diluted share. Net earnings of $42,842,000, or $0.22, per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2006 were impacted by pre-tax charges for restructuring and severance costs of $8,227,000, related asset write-downs of $3,794,000, losses resulting from adjustments to previously existing purchase commitments of $794,000 for tantalum powder and wire, a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $2,854,000 associated with the repurchase of the Company's Liquid Yield Option Notes, and an adjustment to increase the estimated cost of environmental remediation obligations associated with the 2001 General Semiconductor acquisition of $3,600,000. These items and their tax-related consequences had a negative $0.06 effect on earnings per share.

In addition, tax expense included a $3,698,000 favorable benefit, primarily due to a foreign tax ruling. These items and their tax related consequences had a negative $0.07 effect on earnings per share. Net revenues for the six fiscal months ended July 1, 2006 were $1,291,609,000, compared to $1,136,754,000 for the six fiscal months ended July 2, 2005, an increase of $154.9 million or 14%.

These items and their tax-related consequences had a negative $0.12 effect on earnings per share. Net earnings for the six fiscal months ended July 2, 2005 were impacted by pretax charges for restructuring and severance costs and related asset write- downs of $14,385,000, purchased in-process research and development of $9,201,000, Siliconix transaction-related expenses of $3,751,000, and losses resulting from adjustments to previously existing purchase commitments of $3,600,000, partially offset by a gain on sale of land of $2,120,000. In addition, tax expense is net of a $3,698,000 benefit, primarily due to a foreign tax ruling. These items and their tax related consequences had a negative $0.10 effect on earnings per share. Commenting on the results for the second quarter of 2006, Dr. Paul stated, "After a very good first quarter, Vishay was able to improve its results further. Due to continued high end demand and our efforts to expand critical capacities, we increased sales in the second quarter 2006 sequentially by 4.7%, resulting in a significant improvement in our adjusted operating income. We achieved an adjusted operating margin in line with our business model at the current revenue level. We continued to generate free cash-cash flows from operations for the quarter were $77 million and capital expenditures were $34 million." Commenting on the outlook for the third quarter 2006, Dr. Paul continued, "Strong orders from OEMs and EMS support our current business. Inventories in the supply chain are at a reasonable level to sustain the overall business activity. Customers remain optimistic for the second half of this year. We expect a continued friendly business environment, which will lead us to our best year since 2000. For the third quarter we expect sales in the range of $650 million to $670 million and are confident to maintain our good performance." Commenting on the Company's performance, Dr. Felix Zandman, Chairman of the Board and Chief Technical and Business Development Officer, stated, "Sales and adjusted operating results for Vishay have reached a level we have not attained since 2000/2001.

Statements contained herein that relate to the Company's future performance, including statements with respect to trends in revenues, bookings, and margins and the anticipated future benefits of the Company's product, acquisition, research and development and cost reduction strategies are forward-looking statements within the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are based on current expectations only, and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected. Among the factors that could cause actual results to materially differ include: general business and economic conditions, particularly in the markets that we serve, the availability of appropriate acquisition opportunities on terms that the Company considers attractive, difficulties in integrating acquired companies, difficulties in implementing our cost reduction strategies such as labor unrest or legal challenges to our lay-off or termination plans, under- utilization of production facilities in lower-labor-cost countries, operation of redundant facilities due to difficulties in transferring production to lower-labor-cost countries, difficulties in new product development, an inability to attract and retain highly qualified personnel, the current hostilities in Israel where the Company conducts certain of its businesses, and other factors affecting the Company's operations, markets, products, services, and prices that are set forth in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. You are urged to refer to the Company's Form 10-K for a detailed discussion of these factors. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Management believes that stating the impact on net earnings of items such as restructuring and severance, asset write-downs, charges for in-process research and development, gains or losses on purchase commitments, losses on early extinguishment of debt, special tax items and other items not reflecting on-going operating activities is meaningful to investors because it provides insight with respect to intrinsic operating results of the Company and, management believes, is a common measure of performance in the industries in which the Company competes. Investors should be aware, however, that this is a non-GAAP measure of performance and should not be considered as a substitute for the comparable GAAP measure. VISHAY INTERTECHNOLOGY, INC.

** The Company made a cash repurchase of all outstanding LYONs pursuant to the option of the holders to require the Company to repurchase the LYONs on June 4, 2006. In 2005, based on its action to settle the holders' purchase option on the June 4, 2004 purchase date in common stock, the Company assumed for purposes of the earnings per share computation that all future purchase options for the LYONs would be settled in stock based on the settlement formula set forth in the indenture governing the LYONs. Due to the decision to utilize cash to repurchase the notes on the June 4, 2006, purchase date, the earnings per share computation for the 2006 periods are based on the 3,809 shares that would have been issued in a normal conversion, weighted for the period they were outstanding.
