TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH CORPORATION REPORTS FINANCIAL RESULTS INCLUDING RECORD ANNUAL REVENUES
                                      AND RECORD FOURTH QUARTER EARNINGS


CLEARWATER, FLORIDA, May 5, 2006 -- Technology Research Corporation (TRC), (NASDAQ-TRCI), today announced
revenues and earnings for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended March 31, 2006.

Fourth quarter revenues were $15.0 million, a decrease of $.5 million or 3% from the $15.5 million reported
in the same quarter last year.  Net income for the fourth quarter increased $.4 million to $1.2 million compared
with $.9 million for the prior year. Diluted net income per share increased $.06 to $.21 per share for the
fourth quarter compared with $.15 per share for the same quarter last year.

For the full fiscal 2006 year, revenues were a record $45.6 million, an increase of $6.2 million, or 16%, over
the $39.4 million of revenues in the prior fiscal year. Net income was $2.1 million for the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2006, an improvement of $.1 million from fiscal 2005 results. Diluted net income per share increased
$.02 from $.34 to $.36 in fiscal 2006.

Robert S. Wiggins, Chairman, President & CEO said, Our excellent fourth quarter performance, including an all
time TRC quarterly earnings record, combined with our strong third quarter, allowed the Company to overcome a
slow start in the first two quarters of the fiscal year. This outstanding second half achievement resulted in
the Company exceeding last years net income as well as contributing to our significantly improved balance sheet.
We were able to achieve these results in spite of incurring more than $.3 million in legal fees related to the
patent infringement lawsuit, which was initiated during fiscal 2006. Our strong performance in fiscal 2006
generated significant cash flow from operations. Cash and short-term investments increased $1.8 million over
our balances at the close of our previous fiscal year, while total debt declined $2.4 million to $3.0 million
during the same period. Wiggins added, Our financial results are a reflection of the Companys dedication and
commitment to controlling costs despite the intensely competitive nature of the markets in which our business
operates, as well as the  increases in our raw material costs we experienced, especially the 60% increase in
copper prices over this past year. Improved operating efficiencies helped us to maintain our gross profit
percentage within 1% of the previous year.

With respect to fiscal 2007, TRC is forecasting revenues to increase 10 to 15% from fiscal 2006 levels with the
largest increases in the international and U.S. commercial markets. Military revenues are expected to remain
steady but slightly lower than our outstanding fiscal 2006 results. Room air conditioner revenues are forecasted
to be at approximately the same level as in fiscal 2006, however, the Company plans to introduce a lower cost
technology for the room air conditioner market that should improve our competitive position. Operating expenses
are estimated to grow at approximately the same rate as our revenues reflecting increased investments in new
products and markets that are expected to accelerate growth in fiscal 2008. Based on these forecasts, net income
should increase at a rate at or above our revenue growth rate. From a balance sheet perspective, we are planning
to generate positive cash flow from operations that will allow us to continue paying down our debt as well as
funding strategic growth for our future. TRC intends to introduce several new products in fiscal 2007 that will
not only advance our leadership in electrical safety products with additional features and functionality but will
also provide us with new, competitive low-cost alternative solutions that the market is demanding. In summary,
fiscal 2007 is expected to be a year where the Company makes key investments for the future while achieving
sustainable growth in revenues and earnings. This guidance will not be updated during the year unless there is a
significant change in forecasts. From a quarterly perspective, as many investors are aware, TRCs revenues tend
to be seasonal in nature, mostly as a result of the seasonal nature of our room air conditioner business. The
highest demand for most of our room air conditioner products runs from November through March when manufacturers
are preparing for building units for the upcoming season. The Companys fiscal third and fourth quarters are the
highest revenue quarters while the first and second quarters usually have relatively lower revenues. TRC believes
that the best measure of our success is from year-to-year rather than from quarter-to-quarter.


The fourth quarter dividend of $.015 per share was paid on April 21, 2006 to shareholders of record on March 31,
2006.
