<b>LightPath Technologies Announces Preliminary First Quarter Fiscal 2012 Results </b>
<p>Strong Bookings Results in 32% Backlog Increase to $4.20M; First Quarter Conference Call Scheduled for November 10th at 4:00 PM ET</p>
<p>ORLANDO, FL -- (Marketwire - October   25, 2011) -  LightPath Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: LPTH) (the "Company," "LightPath" or "we"), a global manufacturer, distributor and integrator of patented optical components and assemblies, announced today its preliminary financial results for the first quarter ended September 30, 2011.
</p>
<p>
The Company reported preliminary revenue of $2.73 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2012, an increase of 21%, as compared to $2.25 million for the same period last year.
</p>
<p>
Cash on hand as of September 30, 2011 was $0.69 million as compared to $0.93 million on June 30, 2011. Backlog scheduled to ship within the next 12 months was $4.20 million as of September 30, 2011, an increase of $1.02 million as compared to backlog on September 30, 2010 and a $330,000 increase as compared to June 30, 2011.
</p>
<p>
Jim Gaynor, President and CEO of LightPath, stated, "Economic conditions affecting some of the markets we serve had an effect on our quarterly revenue. In particular, such conditions have affected the telecom market and caused our telecom customers to delay new orders. Also, the Chinese government has continued its tight monetary policy in an effort to slow expansion of the economy and reduce inflation. As a result, construction in China has slowed which negatively impacted our industrial tool market in China. These issues resulted in a reduction of anticipated quarterly revenue from our telecom and industrial tools customers. By taking advantage of our diversified markets and customer base, we were able to offset this revenue loss with increases in revenues from our defense and industrial customers particularly with our collimator and custom optics lines. The first quarter of fiscal 2012 was our third consecutive quarter of bookings greater than $3 million and also the third consecutive quarter of bookings higher than the previous quarter."
</p>
<p>
Mr. Gaynor continued, "We continue to focus on increasing our revenue. This past quarter, we achieved our highest first fiscal quarter revenue level since 2007. As we look forward, we believe we have positioned the Company for continued growth and are excited by the opportunities available to us."
</p>
<p>
LightPath will host a conference call to discuss the Company's financial and operational results for the first quarter ended September 30, 2011. Details of the call are as follows:
