                      Performance Technologies Announces

                   Fourth Quarter and 2006 Financial Results

         "Company reports $.09 earnings per share for the latest quarter"

ROCHESTER, NY - February 23, 2007 -- Performance Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq:
PTIX), a leading developer of communication platforms and systems, today
announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and 2006.

Financial Information

Revenue in the fourth quarter 2006 amounted to $12.4 million, compared to $13.3
million in the fourth quarter 2005. Revenue for 2006 amounted to $48.4 million,
compared to $49.6 million in 2005.

Net income for the fourth quarter 2006 amounted to $1.2 million, or $.09 per
diluted share, including stock-based compensation expense of $.05 million, or
$.00 per share, based on 13.3 million shares outstanding. Net income for the
fourth quarter 2005 amounted to $.9 million, or $.06 per diluted share,
including restructuring charges amounting to $.1 million, or $.01 per share and
an intangible asset write-off amounting to $1.4 million, or $.07 per share,
based on 13.3 million shares outstanding.

Net income for 2006 amounted to $1.5 million, or $.11 per diluted share,
including restructuring charges amounting to $1.8 million, or $.10 per share; a
charge for non-compliant "RoHS" inventory amounting to $.8 million, or $.05 per
share; stock compensation expense of $.5 million, or $.03 per share; and
discrete income tax benefits amounting to $.4 million, or $.03 per share, based
on 13.3 million shares outstanding. Net income for 2005 amounted to $3.0
million, or $.23 per diluted share, including restructuring charges amounting to
$.4 million, or $.02 per share and an intangible asset write-off amounting to
$1.4 million, or $.07 per share, based on 13.2 million shares outstanding.

During 2006, the Company recorded restructuring charges relating to relocating
its engineering center in San Luis Obispo, California to a smaller, less
expensive facility located in the same city, closing its Norwood, Massachusetts
engineering center, and severance costs associated with reductions-in-force.
During 2005, the Company recorded restructuring charges for severance costs
primarily related to its centralization efforts.

At December 31, 2006, cash and investments amounted to $35.2 million, or
approximately $2.64 per share, and the Company had no long-term debt.

Business Overview

The following contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Securities Act of 1933 and Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is subject to the
safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

The Company is a global supplier of integrated IP-based platforms and solutions
for advanced communications networks and innovative computer system
architectures. It targets three vertical markets: telecommunications, defense
and homeland security, and commercial. Of the three vertical markets served,
telecommunications is the largest and represents approximately 75% of the
Company's business. An approximate breakdown of telecommunications applications
utilizing the Company's products is as follows: Voice-over-IP (VoIP) represents
40%, wireless infrastructure represents 40%, and the remaining 20% is spread
across IP multimedia and other applications.

The telecommunications market served by the Company depends upon carrier
spending to upgrade network infrastructure to next-generation equipment. During
the fourth quarter 2006, investments by U.S. wireless carriers in
next-generation mobile networks declined from the preceding quarter, which
impacted many of the Company's customers and competitors. The Company's largest
customer during 2006 sells directly into the U.S. wireless market and fourth
quarter shipments to this customer amounted to $1.2 million, compared to $2.5
million in the fourth quarter of 2005.

During 2006, the Company balanced its traditional engineering and technology
focus with a stronger emphasis on sales and marketing. In this endeavor, the
Company's sales organization was expanded, a new sales plan was instituted, more
experienced sales people were hired and new sales leadership was put in place.
Management believes the revitalization of the sales organization was a key
accomplishment in 2006.

In October 2006, Michael P. Skarzynski resigned as president, chief executive
officer and as a member of the Board of Directors. The Company's current
chairman, John M. Slusser became interim president and chief executive officer
following Mr. Skarzynski's resignation. In January 2007, Mr. Slusser was
appointed the permanent president and chief executive officer.

"The Company's financial performance in the fourth quarter met our
expectations," said John Slusser, president and chief executive officer. "As we
enter 2007, we are optimistic about the Company's prospects as we focus our
robust technology suite, strong employee team and capital assets on meaningful
future growth. While we are disappointed with the anticipated lower level of end
market spending during the first six months of 2007, we strongly believe that
the second half of 2007 can reflect growth based on anticipated customer
production deployments and expected solid gains from our reinvigorated sales
organization. In addition, the Company has embarked on a number of initiatives
to improve its market positioning and we will continue to examine strategies to
maximize our value proposition to customers, and successfully identify and
pursue growth opportunities."

Guidance

During weak or uncertain economic periods, the Company's visibility of customer
orders is limited, which frequently causes delays in the placement of orders.
These factors often result in a substantial portion of the Company's revenue
being derived from orders placed within a quarter and shipped in the final month
of the same quarter. At the current time, forward-looking visibility of customer
orders is very limited.

The Company provides guidance only on earnings per share expected in the next
quarter. Because the Company is anticipating lower orders from customers serving
the wireless market and expects to increase its signaling investments,
management anticipates a loss per share in the first quarter 2007 in the range
of $.01 to $.06. This estimated loss per share excludes restructuring charges,
stock-based compensation expense and discrete income tax items. In the first
quarter 2007, stock-based compensation expense is expected to be approximately
$.1 million, excluding any stock options granted during the quarter.

The Company works closely with customers to incorporate its platforms, blades
and software solutions into their product designs. Such "design wins" have been
a useful metric for management to judge the Company's product acceptance in its
marketplace. Design wins, if successfully deployed by our customers, reach
production volumes at varying rates, generally beginning twelve to eighteen
months after the design win occurs. A variety of risks such as schedule delays,
cancellations, changes in customer markets and economic conditions can adversely
affect a design win before production is reached or during deployment. In 2006,
the Company began targeting design wins with major accounts. This approach may
lower the total number of design wins reported in the future although management
expects such design wins to generate higher, long-term value.

During the fourth quarter 2006, the Company realized three design wins for its
Advanced Managed Platform(TM) products. Each design win has the potential to
generate at least $.5 million of annualized revenue when reaching production
volumes.

More in-depth discussions of the Company's strategy and financial performance
can be found in the Company's periodic reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q, as
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Forward Looking Statements

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a "safe harbor"
for certain forward-looking statements. This press release contains
forward-looking statements which reflect the Company's current views with

include, among other factors, general business and economic conditions, rapid
technological changes accompanied by frequent new product introductions,
competitive pressures, dependence on key customers, the attainment of design
wins and obtaining orders as a result, fluctuations in quarterly and annual
results, the reliance on a limited number of third party suppliers, limitations
of the Company's manufacturing capacity and arrangements, the protection of the
Company's proprietary technology, the dependence on key personnel, changes in
critical accounting estimates, potential impairments related to investments and
foreign regulations. These statements should be read in conjunction with the
audited Consolidated Financial Statements, the Notes thereto, and Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the
Company as of December 31, 2005, as reported in its Annual Report on Form 10-K,

                      Performance Technologies Announces

                   Fourth Quarter and 2006 Financial Results

         "Company reports $.09 earnings per share for the latest quarter"

ROCHESTER, NY - February 23, 2007 -- Performance Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq:
PTIX), a leading developer of communication platforms and systems, today
announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and 2006.

Financial Information

Revenue in the fourth quarter 2006 amounted to $12.4 million, compared to $13.3
million in the fourth quarter 2005. Revenue for 2006 amounted to $48.4 million,
compared to $49.6 million in 2005.

Net income for the fourth quarter 2006 amounted to $1.2 million, or $.09 per
diluted share, including stock-based compensation expense of $.05 million, or
$.00 per share, based on 13.3 million shares outstanding. Net income for the
fourth quarter 2005 amounted to $.9 million, or $.06 per diluted share,
including restructuring charges amounting to $.1 million, or $.01 per share and
an intangible asset write-off amounting to $1.4 million, or $.07 per share,
based on 13.3 million shares outstanding.

Net income for 2006 amounted to $1.5 million, or $.11 per diluted share,
including restructuring charges amounting to $1.8 million, or $.10 per share; a
charge for non-compliant "RoHS" inventory amounting to $.8 million, or $.05 per
share; stock compensation expense of $.5 million, or $.03 per share; and
discrete income tax benefits amounting to $.4 million, or $.03 per share, based
on 13.3 million shares outstanding. Net income for 2005 amounted to $3.0
million, or $.23 per diluted share, including restructuring charges amounting to
$.4 million, or $.02 per share and an intangible asset write-off amounting to
$1.4 million, or $.07 per share, based on 13.2 million shares outstanding.

During 2006, the Company recorded restructuring charges relating to relocating
its engineering center in San Luis Obispo, California to a smaller, less
expensive facility located in the same city, closing its Norwood, Massachusetts
engineering center, and severance costs associated with reductions-in-force.
During 2005, the Company recorded restructuring charges for severance costs
primarily related to its centralization efforts.

At December 31, 2006, cash and investments amounted to $35.2 million, or
approximately $2.64 per share, and the Company had no long-term debt.

Business Overview

The following contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Securities Act of 1933 and Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is subject to the
safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

The Company is a global supplier of integrated IP-based platforms and solutions
for advanced communications networks and innovative computer system
architectures. It targets three vertical markets: telecommunications, defense
and homeland security, and commercial. Of the three vertical markets served,
telecommunications is the largest and represents approximately 75% of the
Company's business. An approximate breakdown of telecommunications applications
utilizing the Company's products is as follows: Voice-over-IP (VoIP) represents
40%, wireless infrastructure represents 40%, and the remaining 20% is spread
across IP multimedia and other applications.

The telecommunications market served by the Company depends upon carrier
spending to upgrade network infrastructure to next-generation equipment. During
the fourth quarter 2006, investments by U.S. wireless carriers in
next-generation mobile networks declined from the preceding quarter, which
impacted many of the Company's customers and competitors. The Company's largest
customer during 2006 sells directly into the U.S. wireless market and fourth
quarter shipments to this customer amounted to $1.2 million, compared to $2.5
million in the fourth quarter of 2005.

During 2006, the Company balanced its traditional engineering and technology
focus with a stronger emphasis on sales and marketing. In this endeavor, the
Company's sales organization was expanded, a new sales plan was instituted, more
experienced sales people were hired and new sales leadership was put in place.
Management believes the revitalization of the sales organization was a key
accomplishment in 2006.

In October 2006, Michael P. Skarzynski resigned as president, chief executive
officer and as a member of the Board of Directors. The Company's current
chairman, John M. Slusser became interim president and chief executive officer
following Mr. Skarzynski's resignation. In January 2007, Mr. Slusser was
appointed the permanent president and chief executive officer.

"The Company's financial performance in the fourth quarter met our
expectations," said John Slusser, president and chief executive officer. "As we
enter 2007, we are optimistic about the Company's prospects as we focus our
robust technology suite, strong employee team and capital assets on meaningful
future growth. While we are disappointed with the anticipated lower level of end
market spending during the first six months of 2007, we strongly believe that
the second half of 2007 can reflect growth based on anticipated customer
production deployments and expected solid gains from our reinvigorated sales
organization. In addition, the Company has embarked on a number of initiatives
to improve its market positioning and we will continue to examine strategies to
maximize our value proposition to customers, and successfully identify and
pursue growth opportunities."

Guidance

During weak or uncertain economic periods, the Company's visibility of customer
orders is limited, which frequently causes delays in the placement of orders.
These factors often result in a substantial portion of the Company's revenue
being derived from orders placed within a quarter and shipped in the final month
of the same quarter. At the current time, forward-looking visibility of customer
orders is very limited.

The Company provides guidance only on earnings per share expected in the next
quarter. Because the Company is anticipating lower orders from customers serving
the wireless market and expects to increase its signaling investments,
management anticipates a loss per share in the first quarter 2007 in the range
of $.01 to $.06. This estimated loss per share excludes restructuring charges,
stock-based compensation expense and discrete income tax items. In the first
quarter 2007, stock-based compensation expense is expected to be approximately
$.1 million, excluding any stock options granted during the quarter.

The Company works closely with customers to incorporate its platforms, blades
and software solutions into their product designs. Such "design wins" have been
a useful metric for management to judge the Company's product acceptance in its
marketplace. Design wins, if successfully deployed by our customers, reach
production volumes at varying rates, generally beginning twelve to eighteen
months after the design win occurs. A variety of risks such as schedule delays,
cancellations, changes in customer markets and economic conditions can adversely
affect a design win before production is reached or during deployment. In 2006,
the Company began targeting design wins with major accounts. This approach may
lower the total number of design wins reported in the future although management
expects such design wins to generate higher, long-term value.

During the fourth quarter 2006, the Company realized three design wins for its
Advanced Managed Platform(TM) products. Each design win has the potential to
generate at least $.5 million of annualized revenue when reaching production
volumes.

More in-depth discussions of the Company's strategy and financial performance
can be found in the Company's periodic reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q, as
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
