INTRICON REPORTS 2006 THIRD-QUARTER RESULTS

Sales Up 5 Percent from Prior Year; Net Income Rises Significantly

ST. PAUL, Minn. — October 25, 2006 — IntriCon Corporation (AMEX: IIN), a designer, developer, manufacturer and distributor of miniature and micro-miniature medical and electronic products, today announced financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2006.

For the third quarter, the company reported sales of $12.5 million, up 5 percent from sales of $11.9 million for the 2005 third quarter. IntriCon delivered 2006 third-quarter net income of $438,000, or $0.08 per diluted share, up significantly from net income of $125,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, for the year-ago period. The 2006 third-quarter net income includes stock option expense of $56,000, or $0.01 per diluted share, due to the 2006 adoption of FAS 123(R).

“We’re pleased to report a sizeable year-over-year earnings increase in the 2006 third quarter,” said Mark S. Gorder, president and chief executive officer of IntriCon. “In addition, we posted a solid sales gain, fueled primarily by strong performances in professional audio and electronics. During the quarter, we further enhanced company leadership with the addition of a new independent director. Our team remains committed to investing in new customer projects, while making expense management progress.”

For the nine-month period, IntriCon reported sales of $37.5 million, an increase of 13 percent from 2005 nine-month sales of $33.3 million. Net income for the 2006 nine months was $719,000, or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to $653,000, or $0.12 per diluted share, for the 2005 period. Due to the 2006 adoption of FAS 123(R) a charge of $150,000, or $0.03 per diluted share, in stock option expense has been recognized in the current year.

On a continuing operations only basis, IntriCon recorded 2006 third-quarter net income of $453,000, or $0.08 per diluted share, an increase over net income from continuing operations of $174,000, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the prior-year period. For the 2006 nine months, the company posted net income from continuing operations of $762,000, or $0.14 per diluted share, versus $594,000, or $0.11 per diluted share, for the 2005 nine months.

Business Update

                For the third quarter, IntriCon’s sales were up 5 percent from prior year. For the nine-month period, sales rose 13 percent over the prior year nine months with increases coming in all four markets: professional audio grew 19 percent; medical rose 7 percent; hearing health increased 4 percent; and electronics was up more than 37 percent, with the company’s acquisition of Amecon in late 2005.

Said Gorder, “Year to date, we delivered increases over the prior year in all four of our chosen markets. While project timing may impact quarterly sequential comparisons, we’re achieving positive long-term growth on both the top and bottom lines.”

During the quarter, IntriCon named Philip N. Seamon to its board of directors. Seamon brings more than 30 years of corporate finance and operational consulting experience. With his addition to the company’s board, IntriCon now has five board members, four of whom are independent under applicable SEC and American Stock Exchange guidelines.

Concluded Gorder, “Our growth strategy continues to be further developing our core product lines by investing in strategic research and development opportunities combined with accelerated new product introductions. We’re encouraged by the success we’re seeing across the company, and we remain committed to growing by increasing business with existing customers and attracting new customers.”
