Item 8.01 Other Events.

In June 2005, Sono-Tek Corporation (the "Company"), completed an internal review
from which the Company determined that a former employee had misappropriated
approximately $250,000 of the Company's monies, primarily through unauthorized
check writing from the Company's accounts over a period of time. The Company has
previously expensed substantially all of the misappropriated funds and,
accordingly, their discovery is expected to have no further impact on previously
reported financial statements and is expected to have only minimal effect on the
results of operations and balance sheet to be reported in the Company's
quarterly report on form 10-QSB for the quarter ended May 31, 2005.

As of July 5, 2005, the Company had pursued appropriate remedies to recover the
majority of the funds, and is proceeding to do so. However, the Company can
offer no assurance that it will be successful in its efforts to collect some or
all of the anticipated remaining restitution according to the negotiated
schedule of payments. Additionally, the Company has taken steps to strengthen
its financial organization, recently adding a Chief Financial Officer enabling a
greater segregation of duties.
