SINGAPORE, 10 November 2009 – Mainboard Listed InnoTek Limited (“InnoTek”


or “the Group”) announced today that its net profit after tax for the quarter ended
30 September 2009 (“3Q’09”) rose to S$954,000 from S$160,000 a year earlier on
continued cost and operational improvements despite lower revenue due to the
global economic slowdown.

________________________________________________________________________

The higher profit was achieved despite weaker stamping components and
assembly sales which lowered revenue recorded by its wholly owned precision
metal components business, Mansfield Manufacturing Company Limited (“MSF”),
to S$92.0 million from S$108.1 million. MSF posted a net profit of S$2.3 million in
3Q’09, reversing a loss of S$1.2 million, over the comparative period.

MSF recorded reduced sales of lower-margin TV parts with higher-cost materials,


which resulted in improved 3Q’09 profit margin as compared to 3Q’08. The lower
sales of such TV parts were mitigated by an increase in sales of higher-margin
automotive and medical-related products which contributed to an increase in profit
margin of MSF in 3Q’09.

The net profit growth of MSF was offset by a loss of S$1.4 million recorded by the
Company in 3Q’09 (compared to a net profit of S$1.3 million in 3Q’08) due mainly
to foreign exchange loss of S$1.1 million compared to a foreign exchange gain of
S$1.1 million over the comparative period. The Company’s corporate gain in 3Q’08
had included a reversal of provision for warranties amounting to S$0.8 million.

For the nine months ended 30 September 2009 (“9M’09”) InnoTek reported a net
profit attributable to shareholders of S$4.6 million, up 57% from S$2.9 million.
9M’09 revenue declined to S$268.7 million from S$310.0 million over the
comparative period due to lower global demand for flat-panel TVs and printing
equipment which affected the stamping, assembly and frame businesses.

The Group recorded an earnings per share (fully diluted) of 0.41 cent for 3Q’09, up
from 0.07 cent in 3Q’08; and EPS of 1.96 cents for 9M’09, up from 1.25 cents in
9M’08.

The Group remains in a healthy financial position, having generated S$10.1 million
of positive operating cash flow in 3Q’09. As at 30 September 2009, the Group had
a cash balance of approximately S$98.6 million with total borrowings of S$46.3
million, amounting to a net cash position of S$52.3 million.

Commenting on the 4Q’09 outlook, the Group said that while there have been
signs of stabilization of global economy, business outlook for the next 12 months
remains uncertain.

The Group will continue to improve operational efficiencies and cost management.
“In the absence of any further deterioration of business conditions and major
weakening of the US$, the Group will record a profit for 4Q’09 and FY2009,”
management commented.
