                 PARK-OHIO ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER 2003 RESULTS
                 ----------------------------------------------

         CLEVELAND, OHIO, November 7, 2003 -- Park-Ohio Holdings Corp.
(NASDAQ:PKOH), today announced results for its third quarter ended September 30,
2003.

                               NINE MONTHS RESULTS
         Park-Ohio reported net income of $5.2 million or $.48 per share
dilutive for the first nine months of 2003, compared to a loss before cumulative
effect of accounting change a year earlier of ($.7) million or ($.07) per share.
Park-Ohio reported net sales of $461.6 million for the first nine months of 2003
compared to net sales of $478.3 million one year earlier.

                              THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
         Park-Ohio reported net income of $.1 million or $.01 per share dilutive
for the third quarter of 2003, compared to a net loss a year earlier of ($.2)
million or ($.02) per share. Park-Ohio reported net sales of $146.8 million for
the third quarter of 2003 compared to net sales of $157.8 million one year
earlier.

         Edward F. Crawford, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We
are pleased that the Aluminum and Manufactured Product segments continued to
contribute strongly in the Third Quarter. However, ILS revenue and earnings in
the Current Quarter were lower compared to last year, partly because of the
positive impact on Third Quarter 2002 of the early termination of a high margin
pharmaceutical sales contract, and the presence of a subsequently sold unit. The
ongoing ILS business showed a profit improvement relative to 2002, and prospects
are good for the future. We are forecasting higher Fourth Quarter revenues as
ILS benefits from new customer relationships and cyclical strengthening in
several market segments. We expect 2003 EPS in a range between $.70 and $.80."

         A conference call reviewing Park-Ohio's quarter-end results will
be broadcast live over the Internet on Monday, November 10, commencing

Note A--The Company completed the impairment tests required by Statement of
Financial Standards No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" and effective
January 1, 2002, recorded a $48.8 million charge reflected as a cumulative
effect of a change in accounting principle.

Note B--The effective income tax rate for the first nine months of 2003 is less
than the statutory Federal income tax rate due primarily to the recognition of
net operating loss carryforwards.

Note C--EBITDA reflects earnings before cumulative effect of accounting change,
interest and income taxes (Operating Income), and excludes depreciation and
amortization, restructuring and impairment charges and certain corporate-level
expenses as defined in the Company's Revolving Credit Agreement. EBITDA is not a
measure of performance under generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP")
and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income,
cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities and other income
or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP or as a measure of
profitability or liquidity. The Company presents EBITDA because management
believes that EBITDA could be useful to investors as an indication of the
Company's ability to incur and service debt and because EBITDA is a measure used
under the Company's revolving credit facility to determine whether the Company
may incur additional debt under such facility. EBITDA as defined herein may not
be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The
following table reconciles net income (loss) to EBITDA, as defined:
