ST.
          PAUL, Minn.  February 22, 2006  IntriCon Corporation (AMEX:
          IIN) a designer, developer and manufacturer of miniature and microminiature
          medical and electronic products, today reported higher sales and earnings for
          the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2005.

For
the fourth quarter, the company reported sales of $11.2 million, up from $9.0 million for
the 2004 fourth quarter. The 25 percent year-over-year growth was driven by increases in
IntriCons medical, hearing health, professional audio, and electronics product
groups. On a year-over-year basis, medical was especially strong, growing at 69 percent
for the quarter. Hearing health sales rose 13 percent, with professional audio ahead by 5
percent and electronics up a strong 42 percent.

Income
from continuing operations for the 2005 fourth quarter was $167,450, or $0.03 per share, a
sharp increase from a loss of $1.6 million, or $0.31 per share in the year-ago period.
Total company net income for the fourth quarter of 2005 increased to $876,071, or $0.16
per share, up from a loss of $1.0 million, or $0.20 per share, for the 2004 fourth
quarter. The 2005 fourth quarter included a $0.13 per share amount from discontinued
operations, primarily resulting from a favorable adjustment to the companys
remaining liability for the post retirement medical plan of a divested business.

For
the year, IntriCon reported net sales of $44.5 million, a 26 percent increase from $35.2
million in 2004. All markets contributed to the gains, with medical leading at 71 percent
growth; hearing health rose 27 percent, professional audio was up 10 percent, and
electronics increased by 11 percent.

Income
from continuing operations for 2005 was $761,457, or $0.14 per diluted share, a
significant improvement from a loss of $1.9 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, for the
prior year, which included a $3.1 million gain on the sale of the companys building
located in Dresher, Pa. Total company net income for 2005 increased to $1.5 million, or
$0.29 per diluted share, up from $147,826, or $0.03 per diluted share, in 2004. The 2005
results included a $0.15 per share amount from discontinued operations primarily resulting
from the favorable adjustment noted above in the fourth-quarter discussion.

Mark
S. Gorder, president and chief executive officer of IntriCon, stated: We are pleased
with the strength our business units demonstrated in 2005. The market segments that we
have selected to focus on continue to grow, and we believe, with ongoing investment, will
provide even greater financial opportunities in the future.

Business Update        On
October 6, 2005, IntriCon closed on the acquisition of the Amecon Corporation, a small
manufacturer of magnetic components including chokes and coils, inductors, cores, filters,
relays, transformers and ballasts, current sensors and instrumentation products, based in
Anaheim, Calif. The new business has been successfully integrated into the companys
existing electronic components facility in Anaheim, Calif. Management believes the
acquisition will provide support to the growing competencies of IntriCons electronic
components business.

Added
Gorder, As we grow, we identify opportunities to leverage our products and services
among various core competencies. We are developing solid relationships with top-tier
medical device companies, while building on relationships in our other markets with a
broad range of customers, from high-growth startup firms to large multi-national
corporations. In 2006, we expect to grow by maintaining focus on our core business
segments and emphasizing production efficiency. We will continue to drive sales both
through new product development and expanding relationships with new and existing
customers. Combined with tight expense management, we believe our model has the scale and
flexibility to be successful in 2006 and beyond, concluded Gorder.
