Scientific Industries, Inc. Reports 290% Increase in Net Income for Fiscal Year 2004


BOHEMIA, N.Y., Sept. 27, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- Scientific Industries, Inc. (OTCBB:SCND) reported today significantly higher net income of $248,700 ($.26 per basic share) for fiscal year ended June 30, 2004 as compared to $63,800 ($.07 per basic share) for fiscal year ended June 30, 2003, resulting from higher sales and lower production costs.

Net sales, benefiting from growing acceptance of its new products, increased by 8.5% to $3,532,600 from the prior fiscal year. Principally as a result of increased selling expenses and research and development costs in connection with the Company's expanded marketing efforts and new product development, operating expenses increased by 4.7% to $1,360,800. General and administrative expenses were substantially lower due to not being burdened by the proxy and other costs related to the former CEO's termination in the prior year.

"I am pleased that our efforts in the areas of marketing, new product development and cost cutting have contributed to this year's strong financial performance," said Ms. Helena Santos, President and CEO of the Company.
