<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 18pt">Virco Announces Second Quarter Results
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Torrance, California &#150; September&nbsp;10, 2010 &#150; Virco Mfg. Corporation (NASDAQ: VIRC) today announced
second quarter results in the following letter to stockholders from Robert A. Virtue, President and
CEO:
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Despite the worst recession in our 60-year corporate history, we made solid progress this summer in
building market share among our core K-12 educational customers both nationally and
internationally. Against an overall backdrop of double-digit declines in school construction
starts and renovations, our revenue in the second quarter slipped only 3% from the second quarter
of 2009 and 4.4% in the six months ended July&nbsp;31, 2010, compared to the corresponding period in
2009. We have, however, experienced intense price competition as suppliers to our market struggle
to generate sufficient revenue to cover operating expenses. In response, we aggressively lowered
our own prices, resulting in lower gross and net margins for the second quarter and first half of
the year. We expect prices to remain low for the balance of the year and perhaps well into next
year.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As we warned in our first quarter report, until the private sector recovers fully and begins
pumping tax receipts into state and local coffers, we believe spending for new schools and new
school furniture will remain below the levels of a few years ago. The continuing slow recovery of
the private sector and consequent slow recovery of tax receipts is what causes us to remain
cautious about the near term. As we also previously communicated, we view this as an opportune
time to provide excellent quality products and support to our educational customers and thus
distance ourselves from competitors who may be less willing or able to commit to the intense
seasonality and related logistical and financial challenges of this market.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Here are our results for the second quarter and the first six months ended July&nbsp;31, 2010, and the
comparable period last year:

<DIV style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif">




<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Because this recession has lasted so long, traditional year-over-year comparisons are beginning to
lose some of their relevance. Looking back two years gives a better perspective on the difference
between what some are calling the &#147;new normal&#148; and the pre-recession &#147;old normal.&#148; The second
quarter of 2008 was the last quarter when public schools were operating on pre-recession budgets,
so for us it provides a more representational baseline for comparing results of the second quarter
of 2010. Compared to the second quarter of 2008, revenue for the second quarter of 2010 declined
by 9.8% and gross profit declined by 11.3% with gross profit levels for the second quarter of 2008
being negatively impacted by a spike in raw material and gasoline prices. Compared to the first
six months of 2008, revenue for the first six months of 2010 declined by 9.3% and gross profit
declined by 17.5%. While these declines are relatively modest compared to other segments of the
institutional furniture market, some of which are down 30-40% over the same period, we remain
cautious because of the potential for further declines in our market as the lag in private sector
tax contributions works its way through publicly-funded institutions.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">However, because we expect current conditions to extend for at least another budget cycle, and
perhaps into 2012, we recently made a number of moderate cost adjustments in our annual operating
calendar to restore profitability at current revenue and price levels. As with our previous
adjustments, these changes do not include layoffs.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We are proud that our business model of domestic design, fabrication, direct sales and customer
service continues to support an American workforce that today totals over 1,100 employees. We have
also been able to maintain full benefits and 40-hour work-weeks, although next year we will be
introducing 4 unpaid furlough days that correspond with federal holidays when our customers are not
in their offices or available to take deliveries of furniture.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Another important advantage of our domestic fabrication model is that it lets us control production
and delivery schedules as well as raw material inputs. Unlike extended supply chains where inputs
and schedules are harder to control, we have the ability to respond quickly to last-minute orders,
which we&#146;ve had a lot of this year, while always insuring that our furniture meets the highest
standards of quality and safety.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Whatever success we&#146;ve had over the last two years can be attributed to our employees. Their
efforts each summer to make and deliver what is approaching half of all the classroom furniture
used in America are inspiring, and this year in particular we received a number of compliments from
educators who, because of budget uncertainties and last-minute changes in enrollment, found
themselves without the furniture they needed right before school opened. Thanks to our
Assemble-to-Ship factory operating model and the skilled performance of our employees, we were able
to respond and equip these classrooms on time. To a greater or lesser extent, this story has been
playing out both nationally and internationally over the same period of time, gradually winning us
new customers as word-of-mouth spreads about our ability to manage large projects and rush orders
with great reliability.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Simply stated, we intend to build on this momentum by continuing to offer trustworthy service,
quality products, and innovative designs as our partners in the educational community navigate the
unprecedented budgetary challenges of this prolonged recession.
