TANDY BRANDS ACCESSORIES REPORTS FIRST QUARTER
FISCAL 2007 RESULTS

— Declares 14^th Consecutive Quarterly Dividend —

ARLINGTON, TX, October 25, 2006 — Tandy Brands Accessories, Inc. (Nasdaq NM:TBAC) today announced financial results for the first quarter ended September 30, 2006.

For the first quarter of fiscal 2007, net sales decreased 6.2% to $57.2 million compared to $60.9 million for the same period last year. The Company reported an increase in net income to $2.8 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, compared to net income of $1.5 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, in the prior year’s first quarter.

The decrease in net sales was a result of the Company’s exit from several lower-margin women’s categories, which resulted in a 350 basis point improvement in first quarter fiscal 2007 gross margins to 36.8% compared to 33.3% in the prior year period. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $1.4 million, or 8.4%, to $14.8 million, compared to $16.2 million for the prior year period, primarily due to the Company’s restructuring efforts.

J.S.B. Jenkins, President and Chief Executive Officer commented, “We believe we made strong progress in our overall performance in the first quarter. While total revenues were down due to our exit from several lower-margin women’s categories, sales from remaining categories in the women’s segment exceeded our internal projections. Sales in our men’s segment increased 7.9% for the first quarter due to increased demand for belts and gift accessories in most of our major channels of distribution.”

Mr. Jenkins continued, “We have worked very hard over the past year to improve the operational and financial performance in our business and believe our efforts are beginning to pay off. In addition to our exit from certain underperforming women’s categories, we have improved our shipping efficiencies, hired key senior personnel, consolidated our two women’s divisions, reduced our workforce and maintained a cautious position on spending.”

“We have also made significant improvements to our balance sheet compared to the first quarter last year. Our debt position continues to decrease, our cash flow is strong, and our inventory levels are much improved. We are also proud to be paying our 14^th consecutive dividend.”

Mr. Jenkins concluded, “Many of our initiatives are having a positive impact on our financial performance. We remain focused on improving our prospects for growth and believe we are off to a good start in fiscal 2007.”

The Company anticipates full year fiscal 2007 sales to be in the range of $177 to $182 million and fiscal 2007 earnings per share to be in the range of $0.67 to $0.72 per diluted share.

The Company also reported that the Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.0275 per common share that will be payable January 19, 2007, to shareholders of record at the close of business on December 29, 2006.
