Exhibit 99.1


                    Sono-Tek Holds Annual Shareholder Meeting
                    -----------------------------------------


(August 18, 2006-Milton, NY) Sono-Tek Corporation (OTC BB: SOTK) held its annual
shareholders meeting on August 17, 2006 in Milton, New York. During the meeting,
Dr. Christopher L. Coccio, President and CEO, described Sono-Tek's continued
efforts aimed at developing both new geographical markets and new technology and
application based markets. The success of these efforts has resulted in revenue
growth of over 18% and net income growth of over 31% in Fiscal Year 2006. In
addition to more familiar areas of electronics, stent coatings, and glass
coating applications, he described some of the newer applications involving fuel
cells, solar cells, nanocoatings, diabetes monitor coatings, and the development
of a new line of nozzles based on advanced materials technology. He also noted
the continued development of strategic partnerships in India and China aimed at
increasing both our market presence in these key countries and as a provider of
lower cost ancillary equipment for our proprietary nozzle systems.

Looking forward to the end of the first half later this month, the Company
expects to show sales growth of approximately 5% over last year, although this
could be higher depending on the timing of several large orders. Our expected
net income may or may not exceed last year's first half, again depending on the
timing of large orders. Dr. Coccio noted that we are announcing the opening of
an office in China, and the establishment of a Chinese language website in
conjunction with our attendance at a major electronics trade show in Shenzhen
the last week of August. We expect current technology and business development
expenses to pay for themselves over time through increased growth. Dr. Coccio
also noted that "the growth of the business and employment levels has resulted
in using up all the available space in our present building, and we are actively
seeking alternative approaches to accommodate our future needs".

The Company's Board of Directors met subsequent to the annual meeting. At this
meeting, Dr. Coccio was elected to Vice Chairman, in addition to his other
duties as CEO.
