SMTEK INTERNATIONAL, INC. ANNOUNCES APPOINTMENT
OF TWO NEW BOARD MEMBERS TO FILL VACANCIES


MOORPARK, Calif. (June 10, 2003) - SMTEK International, Inc.
(Nasdaq: SMTI / Pacific Exchange: SMK), a provider of electronics
manufacturing services, today announced the appointment of Edward Smith
and Robert Howard to the Board of Directors of SMTEK to fill the vacancies
created by the resignations of board members Oscar "Bud" Marx and Clay
Biddinger, who resigned to pursue other interests.

Mr. Smith is President and Chief Executive Officer of SMTEK.  Mr.
Smith joined SMTEK in January 2002 as Vice President, Business Development
and he became President and Chief Executive Officer in May 2002.  Before
joining SMTEK, Mr. Smith held the position of senior sales executive with
Avnet, Inc., a leading supplier of electronic components from 1994 through
January 2002.  In addition, he has over twenty years experience in various
managerial roles in the electronics sales and distribution industry.

Mr. Howard is President and Chief Executive Officer of TMW
Enterprises, Inc., a private equity investment company with primary
investments in real estate, marketable securities, and several
manufacturing businesses including electronic manufacturing services.
Prior to joining TMW Enterprises in April 2001, Mr. Howard served as CFO
of Electronic Products Integration Corporation (EPIC), a privately held
contract manufacturer serving the EMS industry.  In addition, he has over
twenty years of broad-based experience in manufacturing and the financial
services industry.  Mr. Howard currently serves as a director in nearly
all of TMW Enterprise's affiliated companies, and serves as Chairman of
the Board for EPIC.

"I have a tremendous amount of confidence in the current board and
management group to continue to strategically and tactically steer SMTEK
through its turnaround," said Bud Marx. "I know Mr. Biddinger joins me in
stating how proud we are of the opportunity to have been a part of the
growing momentum that the new management group has generated, and we look
forward to their continued progress."

"We appreciate the many years of valuable service that Bud and Clay
have provided to SMTEK and wish them well in their future endeavors," said
Jim Burgess, chairman of SMTEK. "I realize the amount of time and effort
it takes to be an active board member and both of these fine gentlemen
certainly have put forth their fair share."

He further commented, "The board believes Mr. Smith is making a
valuable contribution as Chief Executive Officer with the progress of the
turnaround to date, and we expect similar contributions as a board member.
Additionally, Mr. Howard brings to the board an impressive financial and
electronics background. Both have a wealth of knowledge and understanding
of our industry and are valuable additions to our board."
