Exhibit 99.1

Sono-Tek Holds Annual Shareholders Meeting

Milton, NY, August 18, 2011 - Sono-Tek Corporation (OTCQB: SOTK) held its Annual Shareholders Meeting on August 18, 2011 in Milton, New York. The results of Fiscal Year 2011, which ended on February 28, 2011, were reported. During the meeting, Dr. Christopher L. Coccio, Chairman and CEO, highlighted the business performance by noting that Sono-Tek grew sales by 37% for the year ended February 28, 2011 on top of a 13% increase reported in the prior fiscal year, in spite of a very depressed US economy. The Company had its strongest growth ever, and sales reached a record level of nearly $10 million for the year.

The Company significantly increased its profitability this year and reported earnings of $.04 per share versus earnings of $.01 per share in the prior year. The net income was almost $600,000, a seven fold increase over the previous year, and the gross profit margin was 48% of sales, a very strong performance. The balance sheet remained strong, with good cash, debt, and equity positions. The stock price has increased from $.40 per share to $1.35 per share over the past two and a half years (January 2009-July 2011) as the Company’s sales and income has increased.

Our Strategic Business team leaders presented information on the newer markets we are involved in such as advanced energy including fuel cells and solar energy, medical devices including arterial stent coatings and coatings for other medical implants, and our recent successes in the glass and food industries. Shareholders were also shown demonstrations of several new nozzle technologies, including our new highly corrosion resistant nozzles (the Gold Series) which are particularly suited for advanced energy applications.

Since the meeting takes place just prior to the end of the second quarter of our current fiscal year, Dr. Coccio provided those present with a preliminary view of where we are heading this year, indicating “we expect to see a more than 20% increase in sales over the previous Fiscal Year and we could end up the year with more than $12,000,000 in sales, coupled with a significant increase in profit to $1,000,000. A number of large orders are in hand to complete the second quarter and to provide a strong start to the third quarter of the current fiscal year as well.”
