TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH CORPORATION REPORTS FIRST QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS

CLEARWATER, FLORIDA, August 6, 2010 – Technology Research Corporation (“TRC”), (NASDAQ-TRCI), today announced revenue and earnings for its first fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2010.

Revenue was $10.4 million for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $0.7 million from revenue of $9.7 million for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2009. Net income for the first fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2010 was $0.6 million or $0.08 per diluted common share compared with net income of $1.2 million or $0.20 per diluted common share for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2009. Operating cash flow, which we define as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), was $1.8 million for the current quarter, as compared to $2.0 million in the first fiscal quarter of last year.

Orders for the first fiscal quarter were $9.1 million, an increase of $3.1 million from the same fiscal quarter last year. Military orders were $4.0 million, an increase of $1.5 million from the first fiscal quarter of the previous year and commercial orders were $5.1 million, an increase of $1.6 million from the first quarter of the prior year.

Net cash and cash equivalents were $8.5 million at June 30, 2010, an increase of $0.3 million from March 31, 2010. We continue to have no borrowings outstanding under our line of credit.

Owen Farren, President & CEO said, “The integration of Patco into TRC is going very well. Our strategy of leveraging the sales and marketing expertise of TRC to expand the realm of Patco’s battery and charger products is progressing better than we had anticipated.

Our first quarter last year was very profitable due to the timing of deliveries to our largest customer, and we generated operating cash flow of $2.0 million for that quarter. For the quarter just ended, our net income was impacted by the $0.6 million of amortization expense relating to intangible assets from the Patco acquisition, however, I am very pleased that our operating cash flow, including Patco’s contribution, totaled $1.8 million, almost matching last year’s performance.”

The first quarter dividend of $.02 per share was paid on July 15, 2010 to shareholders of record as of June 30, 2010.
