          DESWELL INDUSTRIES INC. EXPECTS FISCAL 2003 REVENUE GROWTH TO
                              EXCEED EIGHT PERCENT

         - EXPANDED PLASTIC INJECTION MOLDING FACILITY NOW OPERATIONAL -

              - FOURTH QUARTER 2003 AND FIRST QUARTER 2004 RESULTS
                    TO BE ANNOUNCED ON OR BEFORE AUGUST 20 -

HONG KONG (July 3, 2003) - Deswell Industries, Inc. (Nasdaq: DSWL), today
announced it expects the revenue of fiscal 2003 to exceed eight percent growth
as compared with fiscal 2002. The Company also expects that first quarter of
fiscal 2004 revenues will exceed first quarter 2003 revenues.

The Company expects fourth quarter fiscal 2003 and first quarter fiscal 2004
results and dividend payments will be announced on or before August 20, 2003.

Mr. Lau, chairman and chief executive officer of Deswell, stated, "Our decision
to change auditors means that we will not be able to announce our audited fourth
quarter results until August. We appreciate our investors' patience in this
matter. We have always announced our results within a time frame consistent with
U.S. companies and will return to announcing our results in a timely fashion
with the second quarter of fiscal 2004."

The Company also announced that production commenced at its new
300,000-square-foot facility in mid June. Fifty-two of the 55 sets of
injection-molding machines have commenced operation. By the end of July, once
thorough testing is completed, the 35,000-square-foot clean room will also be
operational. Large-scale injection molding machines will be installed in the new
plant during September and should be operational by November.

Mr. Lau continued, "Both our plastics and electronics division grew during the
year and the growth should continue into the first quarter. We are particularly
enthusiastic about our new manufacturing facility, which began operation in
June. The combination of this facility's state-of-the art machinery and lower
labor costs should help us build revenues with existing and new customers while
reducing expenses."
