ROBBINS & MYERS ANNOUNCES FOURTH QUARTER
AND FULL YEAR 2010 RESULTS

Finished Fiscal 2010 with Strong Earnings and Cash Flow;
Orders and Backlog Support Expectations for Business Growth in 2011

DAYTON, OHIO, October 6, 2010...Robbins & Myers, Inc. (NYSE: RBN) today reported diluted net earnings per share (DEPS) of $0.45 for its fiscal fourth quarter ended August 31, 2010 and $1.01 for the full fiscal year, or $0.53 and $1.09, respectively, before fourth quarter restructuring charges. The Company reported DEPS of $0.39 in the prior year fourth quarter and $1.66 in the prior full year.

“Our strong earnings in the fourth quarter reflect in part the continued improvements in business conditions that began earlier this year, especially in energy markets,” said Peter C. Wallace, President and Chief Executive Officer of Robbins & Myers, Inc. “Order rates continue to trend up in each of our business platforms, and we are converting these orders to more profitable sales. We expect our higher backlog levels, along with recent restructuring activities and other business initiatives, to contribute to even stronger results next year.”

Robbins & Myers had fourth quarter 2010 orders of $190 million, 55% higher than the comparable prior year period, and sales of $178 million, 15% higher. Backlog expanded sequentially for the fourth consecutive quarter, and fiscal 2010 ending backlog of $175 million is the highest level in 18 months. The Company reported fourth quarter 2010 earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) of $22 million, 46% higher than the prior year quarter, despite of incurring nearly $3 million of restructuring charges in its Process Solutions Group. Before these special charges, operating margins grew 410 basis points to 13.6%. Cash flow from operating activities was $31 million in the quarter, higher than the $27 million generated in the prior year fourth quarter.

Full year 2010 orders of $641 million were 16% higher than the prior year due to recovery in the Company’s end markets. Sales of $585 million were 9% lower due to the prior year benefiting from a large beginning backlog of orders. The Company had full year EBIT of $51 million in 2010, including nearly $3 million of restructuring charges, and reported operating margins of 9.2% versus 11.6% in the prior year. Robbins & Myers generated $88 million of cash from operating activities in 2010, 71% higher than the prior year and nearly matching 2008 record levels.

“We started 2010 with difficult business conditions and a strong commitment to control costs, investments and working capital,” said Mr. Wallace. “As a result, we created significant cash flow throughout the year and repaid all of our debt. Profits accelerated when business levels improved in the second half of the year. We also preserved and funded those programs vital to the long-term success of Robbins & Myers.

“We expect recent favorable market trends to continue into fiscal 2011. Demand for our energy products remains robust, industrial demand is improving, and we expect to see a

continued slow recovery in demand for capital goods serving Western chemical markets. Enterprise initiatives will be focused primarily on growth, including improving sales, product management and aftermarket capabilities; commercializing new products; and, increasing strategic activities. We will continue to create a more competitive cost structure through lean activities and other targeted programs. Robbins & Myers is well-positioned to execute its long-term strategy of profitable growth to create shareholder value.”

The Company expects fiscal 2011 DEPS of $1.45-$1.65 and first quarter DEPS of $0.25-$0.35, without the cost of restructuring actions. These forecasts also exclude the financial impact from the separately-announced proposed acquisition of T-3 Energy Services, Inc.

Fourth Quarter Results by Segment

All comparisons are made against the comparable year-ago quarterly period unless otherwise stated.

In January 2010, the Company announced a realignment of its businesses that included moving its Chemineer US and Asian operations from the Process Solutions Group to the Fluid Management Group. All results included in this press release have been adjusted to reflect the new operating and reporting structure. A recasting of quarterly segment results for fiscal 2007 through 2009 can be viewed in the “Investor Presentations” page of the “Investor Relations” section of the Company’s website, www.robn.com.

The Company’s Fluid Management segment reported orders of $100 million, up 72%, due primarily to strength in energy markets. Sales of $93 million were 37% higher, and EBIT doubled to $25 million. EBIT margins of 26.6% were 850 basis points higher than the prior year. Ending backlog of $58 million is the highest since the first half of fiscal 2009.

The Process Solutions segment reported orders of $55 million, 52% higher than the trough levels of a year ago. Demand for capital goods in Western chemical markets remains weak, while demand in Asian markets is favorable. Sales of $46 million were 8% lower, and the business had breakeven EBIT without $2.8 million of restructuring costs in the fourth quarter of 2010. In the prior year, the business reported $1 million of EBIT. Ending backlog of $79 million is the highest since the first quarter of fiscal 2009.

The Romaco segment had orders of $35 million, an increase of 24%. Backlog increased 23% to $38 million, excluding from the prior year backlog the $9 million order that was originally recorded in fiscal 2006 and cancelled in the second quarter of fiscal 2010. Sales increased 5% to $38 million, and EBIT declined 20% to $3 million.

Conference Call to Be Held Today, October 6 at 3:00 PM (Eastern)

A conference call to discuss these results, as well as Robbins & Myers’ proposed acquisition of T-3 Energy Services, Inc., has been scheduled for 3:00 PM Eastern on Wednesday, October 6, 2010.
