Monitor this Company

CLEVELAND, Oct. 30 - Park-Ohio Holdings Corp. (Nasdaq: PKOH) today announced results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2006.

     NINE MONTHS RESULTS

    Park-Ohio reported net sales of $785.8 million for the first nine months of 2006, a 14% increase on sales of $691.9 million for the same period of 2005. Park-Ohio reported net income of $13.4 million, or $1.17 per share dilutive, for the first nine months of 2006, which included the impact of federal income tax expense. This compared to $18.9 million, or $1.66 per share dilutive, in the same period of 2005, which benefited from the absence of federal income tax expense. Had federal income taxes been recorded in the first nine months of 2005, Park-Ohio would have reported net income fully taxed(A) of $13.3 million, or $1.17 per share dilutive.

     THIRD QUARTER RESULTS

    Park-Ohio reported net sales of $257.2 million for third quarter 2006, a 10% increase on sales of $234.2 million for third quarter 2005. Park-Ohio reported net income of $3.7 million, or $.33 per share dilutive, for third quarter 2006, which included the impact of federal income tax expense. This compared to net income of $5.2 million, or $.45 per share dilutive, for third quarter 2005, which benefited from the absence of federal income tax expense. Had federal income taxes been recorded in third quarter 2005, Park-Ohio would have reported net income fully taxed(A) of $3.7 million, or $.33 per share dilutive.

    Edward F. Crawford, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We continue to be buoyed by strong performance in most of our businesses and end markets. This success is being offset by a challenging automotive environment which impact principally our aluminum and rubber businesses. We expect significant improvements in both businesses, beginning in very late 2006 and 2007. The NABS acquisition will provide little improvement to our 2006 earnings while we integrate their operations into ILS and prepare for a very exciting 2007. We are hopeful that as a result of expected strong fourth quarter performance across many businesses and the recent operational improvements at our rubber business, we will achieve the lower end of our previously announced earnings guidance of $1.65 to $1.75 dilutive EPS."

    Park-Ohio is a leading provider of supply chain logistics services and a manufacturer of highly engineered products. Headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio, the Company operates 24 manufacturing sites and 55 supply chain logistics facilities.

    In fourth quarter 2005, the Company reversed $7.3 million of its domestic deferred tax asset valuation allowance, increasing net income. In 2006, the Company began recording a quarterly provision for federal income taxes, which resulted in a total effective income tax rate of approximately 37%. Park- Ohio's significant net operating loss carry-forward should preclude the payment of cash federal income taxes in 2006 and substantially reduce cash payments in 2007. In fourth quarter 2006, if a portion or all of its remaining deferred tax asset will more likely than not be realized, the Company will reverse into income the appropriate portion of its remaining tax valuation allowance of approximately $5.0 million.

    Other financial data:

     EBITDA, as defined $18,332 $17,434 $59,356 $54,949

     Note A -- In 2006, the Company began recording a quarterly provision for

     federal income taxes, resulting in a total effective income tax rate of

     approximately 37 percent. The Company's significant net operating loss

     carryforwards should preclude the cash payment of federal income taxes in

     2006. In the fourth quarter of 2006, if a portion or all of its remaining

     deferred tax asset will more likely than not be realized, the Company

     will reverse into income the appropriate portion of its remaining tax

     valuation allowance of approximately $5.0 million.

     Note B -- EBITDA, as defined, reflects earnings before interest, income

     taxes, and excludes depreciation, amortization, certain non-cash charges

     and 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

     statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP or as a measure of

     profitability or liquidity. The Company presents EBITDA because

     management believes that EBITDA is useful to investors as an indication

     of the Company's satisfaction of its Debt Service Ratio covenant in its

     revolving credit agreement 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 to EBITDA, as defined:

     consumer products industries. The acquisition was funded with borrowings

     under the Company's revolving credit facility.
