-Records Profitable Third Quarter-

WEST MELBOURNE, FL, November 5, 2008 - RELM Wireless Corporation (Amex: RWC) today announced its financial and operating results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2008.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2008, sales totaled approximately $5.8 million, compared with $8.4 million for the same quarter last year. Pretax income for the quarter approximated $0.4 million, compared with $1.9 million for the same quarter last year. The Company reported net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2008 of approximately $0.3 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared with net income of $1.1 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, for the same quarter last year. Income tax expense for the quarter approximated $0.1 million, compared with $0.7 million for the same quarter last year. The income tax expense reported for each quarter is primarily a non-cash item.

Gross profit margin for the third quarter 2008 was 50.7% of sales, versus 56.3% of sales for the same quarter last year. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter totaled $2.6 million (44.1% of sales), compared with $3.0 million (35.5% of sales) for the same quarter last year.

RELM President and Chief Executive Officer David Storey commented, “We are pleased to report an operating profit for the third quarter. This was achieved as a result of completing certain product development initiatives combined with aggressive cost-reduction actions and a solid mix of high-margin digital product sales for the quarter. The cost-reduction actions enabled us to reduce SG&A expenses by over $1 million (30.0%) from the preceding quarter. P25 digital products comprised almost 50% of our total third quarter sales versus 41.8% of our total second quarter sales and 34.6% of our total first quarter sales.”

Storey continued, “We are continuing to forge ahead with expansion of our new line of next-generation KNG products and have substantially completed UHF and 700/800MHz products to supplement our VHF portable radio that was introduced in June 2008. As promised, these new models address frequencies and markets in which we have not previously had a presence.”

“Although the business climate is difficult, we continue to believe that our growing line of new digital products with competitive advantages, combined with a reduced cost structure, will strengthen and position RELM for future success,” concluded Storey.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, sales totaled approximately $15.6 million, compared with $22.4 million for the same period last year. Pretax loss for the nine months ended

September 30, 2008 approximated $2.0 million, compared with pretax income of $3.8 million for the same period last year.

Income tax benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 approximated $0.7 million, compared with income tax expense of $1.5 million for the same period last year. The income tax benefit and income tax expense reported for each period are primarily non-cash items.

About APCO Project 25 (P25)

APCO Project 25 (P25), which requires interoperability among compliant equipment regardless of the manufacturer, was established by the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials and is approved by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. The shift toward interoperability has gained momentum as a result of significant communications failures during events such as the Oklahoma City bombings, the 9/11 attacks and Hurricane Katrina. RELM was one of the first manufacturers to develop P25-compliant technology.
