SERVOTRONICS, INC. (AMEX– SVT) ANNOUNCES INCREASED 2004 SECOND QUARTER AND SIX MONTH PROFITS AND REVENUES

Elma, NY -- Servotronics, Inc. (Amex – SVT) reported a pre-tax and net income of $343,000 and $215,000 respectively (or $0.11 net per share – Basic and $0.10 net per share - Diluted) on a 43% increase in revenues to $5,640,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 as compared to a pre-tax and net loss of ($35,000) and ($22,000) respectively (or ($0.01) net per share Basic and Diluted) on revenues of $3,945,000 for the same quarter ended June 30, 2003. Pre-tax and net income for the six month period ended June 30, 2004 was $595,000 and $373,000 respectively (or $0.18 net per share – Basic and Diluted) on revenues of $10,968,000 which represents an increase in revenues of approximately 41% and a turn around in pre-tax income of over $742,000 when compared to the revenues of $7,774,000 and pre-tax and net loss of ($147,000) and ($93,000) for the same six month period in 2003. The year to year increase in pre-tax income is attributed to increased shipments, the successful replacement of lost business resulting from 9/11, productivity improvements, cost containment activities and the successful production realizations of earlier engineering/marketing efforts. Receipts of new orders continue to be strong.

The Company’s Advanced Technology Group’s (ATG) new programs and product application activities are aggressively moving forward in such areas as the Joint Strike Fighter, new generations of jet engines, program upgrades and new precision control markets. Similarly, the Company’s Consumer Products Group (CPG) continues to expand its presence in the Government, sportsmen and collectible markets.

The Company’s demonstrated ability to counteract the adverse effects of 9/11 and to grow sales revenues continues to be enhanced by its significant engineering and marketing commitments and the maintenance of a strong backlog, cash flow and balance sheet. During 2004, the Company continues to invest resources and front-end costs associated with prototype, preproduction and start-up activities for both the ATG and CPG. The timing of such costs directly contributes to fluctuations in operating results from period to period because these costs are expensed as incurred and, as such, are not matched to their future revenues and benefits.

The Company is composed of two groups – the Advanced Technology Group and the Consumer Products Group. The Advanced Technology Group designs, develops and manufactures servo control and other components for various commercial and government applications (i.e., aircraft, jet engines, missiles, satellite launch vehicles, etc.). This group is currently providing products for a significant number of aerospace programs such as the F/A-18 E/F Super Hornet and other jet fighters; the Bell/Boeing MV-22 Osprey Tiltrotor Joint Service Aircraft, the Blackhawk, Apache, A-10 and other helicopters, the Standard Missile, numerous business and regional jet aircraft, Raytheon's Hawker Horizon Aircraft, Embraer TwinTurbo Fan aircraft, the Airbus 300 series and Boeing 700 series commercial aircraft, DeHavilland DHC8-40 and various other programs.

Servotronics’ Consumer Products Group designs and manufactures cutlery, bayonets, machetes and combat, survival, sporting, agricultural, and pocket knives for both commercial and government applications.
