YEAR END INCOME AND REVENUES
 

Elma, NY -- Servotronics, Inc. (Amex – SVT) reported an 87.2% increase in net income to $2,052,000 (or $1.06 per share basic, $0.96 per share diluted) on a 27.8% increase in revenues to $31,378,000 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007. Net income and revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 were $1,096,000 (or $0.55 per share basic, $0.51 per share diluted) and $24,548,000 respectively. The Company attributes the increased revenue and net income to increased product shipments for commercial and government applications in conjunction with continuing cost containment activities and the onset of certain production programs whose development costs were appropriately expensed in prior periods.
 
The Company is composed of two groups – the Advanced Technology Group (ATG) and the Consumer Products Group (CPG). The ATG primarily designs, develops and manufactures servo control and other components for various commercial and government applications (i.e., aircraft, jet engines, missiles, manufacturing equipment, etc.). The CPG designs and manufactures cutlery, bayonets, machetes and combat, survival, sporting, agricultural, and pocket knives for both commercial and government applications.
 
The ATG is continuing its aggressive business development efforts in its primary markets. Also, the ATG is increasing its product presence in both the domestic and foreign markets -- which include the aerospace, military, commercial and medical among others. The current backlog for the ATG is strong.
 
The CPG continues to introduce new products for expanded government related cutlery applications. Also, the Company’s increased activities in foreign markets are continuing to result in new development activities in support of new applications.
 
In January of 2006, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the purchase by the Company of up to 250,000 shares of its common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. As of December 31, 2007, the Company has purchased 194,357 shares under this authorization.
