FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE



INTRICON REPORTS STRONG 2006 FOURTH-QUARTER

AND FULL-YEAR RESULTS

Fourth-Quarter Sales Up 27 Percent from Prior Year; Annual Sales Increase 16 Percent



ST. PAUL, Minn.  February 27, 2007  IntriCon Corporation (AMEX: IIN), a designer, developer, manufacturer and distributor of miniature and micro-miniature medical and electronic products, today announced financial results for its fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2006.

For the fourth quarter, the company reported strong sales of $14.2 million, a 27 percent rise from sales of $11.2 million for the 2005 fourth quarter. IntriCon delivered fourth-quarter net income of $443,000, or $0.08 per diluted share, versus net income of $876,000, or $0.16 per diluted share, for the 2005 fourth quarter. The 2005 period included a $0.13 per share benefit from discontinued operations, primarily resulting from a favorable adjustment for the post-retirement medical plan of a divested business. The 2006 fourth-quarter net income included stock option expense of $64,000, or $0.01 per diluted share, due to the 2006 adoption of FAS 123(R).

Were very pleased to report strong sales for both the quarter and year, said Mark S. Gorder, president and chief executive officer of IntriCon. We believe our growth strategy of focusing on our core markets and miniature/micro-miniature strengths, continues to drive double-digit gains. Project timing, which is a normal part of our business, continues to impact bottom-line performance in certain quarters.

For the year, IntriCon reported sales of $51.7 million, an increase of 16 percent from 2005 sales of $44.5 million. Net income for 2006 was $1.16 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, compared to $1.53 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, for the prior year. The 2005 results included a $0.15 per diluted share benefit from discontinued operations for the reason noted above in the fourth-quarter discussion. Due to the 2006 adoption of FAS 123(R), a charge of $214,000, or $0.04 per diluted share, in stock option expense was recognized in 2006.

February 27, 2007

On a continuing operations only basis, IntriCon recorded 2006 fourth-quarter net income of $479,000, or $0.09 per diluted share, a significant increase over net income from continuing operations of $167,000, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the prior-year period. For the 2006 year, the company posted net income from continuing operations of $1.24 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, up from $761,000, or $0.14 per diluted share, for 2005.



Business Update

For the fourth quarter,IntriCons sales rose 27 percent from the prior year. For the year, sales rose 16 percent from 2005 with increases coming in all four markets: professional audio grew 21 percent; medical rose 18 percent; hearing health increased 9 percent; and electronics was up approximately 1 percent.

Said Gorder, We saw solid growth across our business during 2006. Our fourth quarter was particularly strong, with medical leading the way as several large projects with leading OEMs ramped up; and professional audio and hearing health posted significant gains over the prior year as well.

In the fourth quarter, IntriCon joined the Hearing Instrument Manufacturers Patent Partnership (HIMPP). Members of the partnership include the six largest hearing aid manufacturers as well as several other smaller manufacturers. The strategic investment in the partnership will grant IntriCon access to more than 45 U.S. registered patents.



Growth Strategy

IntriCon expects to drive growth in 2007, in part, by aggressively pursuing new product development through an increased commitment to research and development (both company and customer sponsored). In hearing health, the company will use improved digital signal processing (DSP) technology to enhance its line of hearing aid assemblies as well as complete devices. In addition, low-power wireless initiatives are expected to enable new product launches during the year.

IntriCon anticipates that its medical business will gain further traction with the continued ramp up of projects with major device manufactures. Said Gorder, The demand for miniature, body-worn devices continues to rise as the worlds population agesand increasingly, IntriCon is being recognized as a leader in developing these for large medical OEM customers. We have several projects in the pipeline for 2007 and we will actively seek new opportunities as well.

Since entering the market in 2001, IntriCons professional audio business has almost doubled in sales. Driving future growth is the continuing trend for smaller ear-worn and head-worn, hands-free communication devices which utilize the same DSP and wireless technology that the company is developing for hearing health. During 2007 IntriCon plans to begin projects with existing customers, as well as pursue development of new products that incorporate DSP and wireless.

Concluded Gorder, As a company, we made substantial progress in 2006. In the last three years, we have grown annual revenues by more than $15 million and gone from a continuing operations net loss of more than 70 cents per share, to delivering earnings of more than 20 cents per share. Our focus on further developing our core product lines through a sustained commitment to research and development is driving these increases. In 2007 we expect to make further gains and continue to grow our customer base.
