These restatements are being made to correct the Company's method of accounting for currency translation adjustments under Financial Accounting Standard No. 52. These adjustments will 
not impact the Company's previously reported net cash flows, revenues, or operating income.  The financial information that the Company will report in its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended February 26, 2005 will also reflect a correction of information provided in its earnings release for the quarter ended February 26, 2005 to record a tax expense of approximately $17 million, primarily to reduce the current deferred tax assets on its Consolidated financial statements.  This adjustment will not impact net cash flows, revenues or operating income.  As a result of its determination to restate its consolidated financial results as noted above, the financial statements previously issued for the periods being restated should not be relied upon.</font></p>

<p><font face="arial">The Company previously reported that the late filing of its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended February 26, 2005 and the restatement resulted in a default of the Company's secured revolving credit agreement. The Company has now received a Consent and Waiver of default thereby created from the lenders under such credit agreement.</font></p>

<p><font face="arial"><b>Richardson Electronics Will File SEC Form 10-Q for Fiscal 2005 Third Quarter and to Amend Filings for Prior Periods </b></font></p>

<p><font face="arial"><b>LaFox, IL, May 13, 2005:</b>  Richardson Electronics, Ltd.  (NASDAQ: RELLE) today reported that the Company expects to file its SEC Form 10-Q for the third quarter of the fiscal year 2005, an amended Form 10-K/A for the 2004 fiscal year and amended Forms 10-Q/A for the first two quarters of fiscal 2005 on Monday May 16, 2005.</font></p>

<P><font face="arial">In the third quarter of fiscal 2005, the Company identified an accounting error in the application of Statement of Accounting Standards No. 52, Foreign Currency Translation, on intercompany indebtedness with its subsidiaries.  Financial statements for the 2002 and 2003 fiscal years, and the first two quarters of the 2005 fiscal year are being restated to correct this error and will be reflected in the amended Forms 10-K/A and 10-Q/A.  Additionally, all four quarters of fiscal 2004 are being amended; however, the income statement for fiscal 2004 will not be restated as the total impact to net income was not material.  The adjustments resulted in increases to net income of $127,000 for fiscal 2002, $1.1 million for fiscal 2003, and $2.3 million for fiscal 2005. As a result of its determination to restate its consolidated financial results as noted above, the financial statements previously issued for the periods being restated should not be relied upon.</font></p>

<P><font face="arial">The Company is now in compliance with all debt covenants of its secured revolving credit agreement.  The lending group has issued a waiver for the late filing of the third quarter Form 10-Q and the restatements.  </font></p>

<P><font face="arial">In addition, to comply with Accounting Standards regarding income taxes, the Company has recorded a tax expense of $17.0 million for the quarter ended February 26, 2005, primarily to reduce the current deferred tax assets on its financial statements.  The tax expense, which reduced earnings per share by $0.98 for such quarter, will not affect the Company's ability to apply tax loss carry forwards to future earnings and will have no cash impact on the Company's current performance.</font></p>

<P><font face="arial">These adjustments do not impact the Company's previously reported net cash flows, revenues or operating income.</font></p>
