Sono-Tek Holds Annual Shareholders Meeting

MILTON, N.Y., Aug. 14, 2015

During the meeting, Dr. Christopher L. Coccio, Chairman and CEO, highlighted the past year's business performance and the Company's successful track record over the past decade which led to a tripling of sales, income, and a manifold increase of cash and marketable securities. He described the Company's diversification strategy in terms of new products and markets, coupled with geographical expansion to multiple areas of the world. Dr. Joseph Riemer, VP for Food Business Development, discussed the advances in the Food Business segment, one that holds significant promise for the Company's future growth. Robb Engle, VP of Engineering, discussed advances in technology platforms, which are the heart of the Company's business growth model.

The Company's President, R. Stephen Harshbarger, described plans to create future growth between now and 2020. He described a goal of $20,000,000 in revenues by 2020, coupled with leverage to achieve $.10-$.16 earnings per share over that time period. He indicated that the Company expects this growth in sales and profits to come from (1) implementing LEAN Manufacturing to shorten product cycle times and to reduce related costs and (2) by creating a New Product Development team to accelerate the Company's successful strategy of developing new applications for precision ultrasonic spraying and coating systems.

Since the meeting takes place just prior to the end of the second quarter of the Company's current fiscal year, Dr. Coccio indicated that "We will be reporting an increase in second quarter sales compared to last year, as well as compared to the first quarter of this year."
