FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PMFG, Inc. (Parent of Peerless Mfg. Co.) Announces Meeting Date for Special Meeting of Stockholders to Consider Authorizing Class of Preferred Stock

Dallas, Texas, April 21, 2009 — PMFG, Inc. (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: PMFG) today announced that it has filed a definitive proxy statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission related to a special meeting of stockholders to be held on June 16, 2009 at the Company’s corporate headquarters at 10:00 a.m. Dallas, Texas time.

At the meeting, the Company’s stockholders will be asked to approve a proposal to amend the Company’s certificate of incorporation to authorize the issuance of five million shares of preferred stock. Currently, the Company’s certificate of incorporation provides only for the issuance of common stock. If approved by stockholders, the preferred stock would be issuable in one or more series, with such rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions as determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors.

The Company’s board of directors believes that the Company and its stockholders will benefit from the flexibility of having preferred stock available to be issued. The proposed amendment would allow the Company to tailor the terms of each issuance of preferred stock to market conditions, capital raising opportunities or acquisition opportunities without the expense, delay and uncertainty that would result if stockholder approval was required for each issuance of preferred stock.

Peter J. Burlage, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented: “We believe that the option to issue preferred stock will provide us with greater financial flexibility and additional capital-raising options.”

The Company’s board of directors has no present understanding or arrangement with any person to issue any shares of preferred stock. However, as previously announced, the Company is considering raising additional equity capital.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities. Any preferred stock offered in a private placement will not be registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
