FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


                   INTRICON REPORTS 2005 FIRST-QUARTER RESULTS
         TOP- AND BOTTOM-LINE PERFORMANCE IMPROVES FROM YEAR-AGO PERIOD;
  COMPANY RESTATES PRIOR YEARS--CUMULATIVE AFTER-TAX IMPACT LESS THAN $600,000


ST. PAUL, MINN. -- JUNE 27, 2005 -- INTRICON CORPORATION (AMEX: IIN) today
announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2005.

         For the quarter, the company reported sales of $9.8 million, up from
$9.3 million for the 2004 first quarter. The 5 percent year-over-year gain was
driven by sales increases of 11 percent in hearing health, 76 percent in medical
and 6 percent in electronics. These gains were partially offset by a decline in
sales of professional audio communications products, which was the result of a
large, one-time order in the prior year from the Singapore military. Excluding
the one-time order, 2005 professional audio communications products sales rose
22 percent from the comparable 2004 period. IntriCon reported net income for the
2005 first quarter of $210,000, or $.04 per share, significantly improved from a
net loss of $793,000, or $.16 per share, for the year-ago period.

         "Demand increased for almost all of our product groups during the
quarter, and was particularly strong in medical," said Mark S. Gorder, president
and chief executive officer of IntriCon. "New products in all of our markets are
fueling growth, and we have initiatives under way to continue to expand our
product offering."

         As previously reported, the company sold the remaining portion of its
Heat Technology business on March 31, 2005, for a gain of approximately
$536,000. First-quarter results of operations for this segment, inclusive of
this gain, were included in income from discontinued operations of $464,000, or
$.09 per share, compared to a net loss of $79,000, or $.02 per share, for the
same three-month period in 2004.

         For the 2005 three-month period, IntriCon recorded a loss from
continuing operations of $254,000, or $.05 per share, narrowed from a loss of
$714,000, or $.14 per share, for the prior-year period. Stronger sales, lower
selling and administrative costs, and the transfer of certain manufacturing
projects to the company's Singapore facility, contributed to the stronger
performance.

         Gorder stated: "With the sale of our remaining Heat Technology
business, we believe we have successfully completed the shift to focus on the
emerging prospects in our precision miniature medical and electronics products
business, and our established opportunities in hearing health and professional
audio communications."

         On June 1, 2005, IntriCon announced that it would restate financial
results for prior years in order to correct the accounting for certain research
and development expenditures, primarily impacting the company's Singapore
operation. Today the company completed that process, restating results for 2000
through 2004. The cumulative, after-tax impact for the five-year period was a
charge to shareholders' equity of $543,000.

         Said Gorder, "With today's filings, we are now current with the
American Stock Exchange's listing requirements--and we're pleased to have
completed this before the stated deadline. As we've said previously, we believe
the circumstances leading to this event were unique and nonrecurring, and we
anticipate issuing future results in a timely manner."

BUSINESS UPDATE

         For the first quarter, sales in hearing health increased primarily due
to new product offerings in IntriCon's advanced line of amplifier assemblies and
systems based on Digital Signal Processing (DSP). Medical product orders
strengthened with new design and contract manufacturing projects with several
medical OEM customers. Sales of thermistors, which are IntriCon's highly
accurate thermometers, to a specific customer helped grow electronics products
sales. As previously stated, the decline in professional audio communications
product sales was the result of a large, one-time order from the Singapore
military in the year-ago period.

GROWTH STRATEGY

         IntriCon is focused on emerging opportunities in medical, hearing
health, professional audio communications and electronics. The company believes
its core competencies position it well to expand in these chosen markets and
increase its customer base.

         Said Gorder, "With our strong expertise in the robotic manufacture of
miniature and micro-miniature electronics products, we believe we are well
suited to compete in the growing medical device market -- and that will continue
to be a key initiative for IntriCon going forward.

         "We expect to grow by focusing on our core product lines and
accelerating the pace of new product introductions, which combined with our cost
reductions, will drive improved financial performance."

OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS

         Recently, Bill Kullback joined IntriCon as its new chief financial
officer. Kullback previously served as senior vice president and chief financial
officer of MedSource Technologies, Inc., a Minneapolis-based $185 million,
publicly traded provider of engineering and manufacturing services, and supply
chain management solutions to the medical device industry.

         Said Gorder, "Bill brings significant experience in the high
technology, medical device and related industries. He's a tremendous asset as we
build our visibility in the medical industry, and leverage already established
opportunities in hearing health, professional audio communications and
electronics."
