FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
August 8, 2005

                    NN, INC. REVISES 2005 SECOND QUARTER AND
                 SIX MONTH ENDED JUNE 30, 2005 REPORTED EARNINGS

Johnson City, Tenn, August 8, 2005 - NN, Inc. (Nasdaq: NNBR) today reported that
it was  revising  its 2005  second  quarter  and six month  ended  revenues  and
earnings per share previously  reported in its earnings release and SEC Form 8-K
dated July 28,  2005.  The revision is the result of the Company  discovering  a
sales  invoicing  issue,  subsequent  to the release of its 2005 second  quarter
earnings,  which affected a single customer at its Industrial  Molding Division.
This revision will reduce reported  revenues by approximately  $0.4 million from
$84.2 million and $170.9 million to $83.8 million and $170.5 for the 2005 second
quarter and six months  ended June 30,  2005,  respectively.  Additionally,  the
revision will reduce reported  diluted  earnings per share of $0.21 and $0.44 to
$0.19 and $0.43  per  diluted  share  for the same  periods,  respectively.  The
Company  will file its June 30,  2005 Form 10-Q on August 9,  2005,  which  will
reflect the revised amounts.
