</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Mansfield, Ohio &#151; October&nbsp;26, 2007 &#151; The Gorman-Rupp Company (AMEX:GRC) reported record net sales
of $228,737,000 for the nine months ending September&nbsp;30, 2007 compared to $205,825,000 for the same
period in 2006, an increase of 11.1%. Record net income for the nine months of 2007 was
$17,105,000 compared to $16,649,000 in 2006, equal to earnings per share of $1.28 and $1.25,
respectively.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Record third quarter 2007 net sales were $74,629,000 compared to $70,833,000 during the same period
in 2006. Net income for the third quarter was $5,475,000 compared to $6,612,000 in 2006. Earnings
per share for the quarter were $0.41 in 2007 compared to $0.50 in 2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company realized higher healthcare expense of $385,000 during the third quarter and $1,463,000
for the nine months of 2007 compared to the same periods in 2006, impacting earnings per share by
$0.02 and $0.07, respectively.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2007 was 35.1% compared to 24.6% for the same
period in 2006. Income taxes during the third quarter 2006 were favorably impacted by reductions
in state tax liability estimates and deferred research and development tax credits totaling
approximately $1,018,000, equal to $0.08 per share.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Strong incoming orders during the quarter resulted in a record backlog of $123.7&nbsp;million at
September&nbsp;30, 2007, a 46.6% increase from a year ago and 26.2% higher than the backlog of $98.0
million at June&nbsp;30, 2007. Increased orders for fabricated components for the power generation market and increased demand
arising from continued global focus on water, wastewater, flood control, fire protection and
infrastructure improvement are major contributors to the record backlog.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company is proud to have again been named as one of Forbes Magazine&#146;s &#147;200 Best Small
Companies&#148; in the October, 2007 edition. In addition, the Company has been recognized in the 2007
edition of <I>America&#146;s Finest Companies </I>by the Staton Institute.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&#147;We are extremely encouraged by the amount of new orders received during the quarter and pleased
with the record sales and backlog for the third quarter and nine months,&#148; reported Jeffrey Gorman,
President and CEO. &#147;Strong domestic sales growth combined with increased penetration in
international markets have contributed to the Company&#146;s performance. The record backlog at the end
of the quarter favorably positions the Company for the coming months.&#148;
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">At its October&nbsp;25, 2007 meeting, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a five-for-four
split of the Company&#146;s Common Shares in the form of a distribution of one additional Common Share
for each four Common Shares previously issued. The distribution will be made on December&nbsp;10, 2007
to shareholders of record at the close of business on November&nbsp;15, 2007.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Cash payments will be made to shareholders in settlement of fractional-share interests resulting
from the distribution on the basis of the average of the high and low sales price of the Company&#146;s
Common Shares on the American Stock Exchange on the record date (or, if there are no sales on the
record date, then on the first preceding day on which there were sales), adjusted to reflect the
distribution.
