                       HURCO EXTENDS ODD LOT TENDER OFFER

         INDIANAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--August 1, 2003 . . . Hurco Companies,
Inc. (NASDAQ: HURC) today announced that the expiration date of its tender offer
for the purchase of all shares of its common stock held by persons owning 99 or
fewer shares as of the close of business on June 2, 2003 has been extended to
5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Tuesday, September 2, 2003. The offer had been
scheduled to expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Thursday, July 31,
2003.

         To date, the Company has received tenders from 45 holders eligible to
participate in the offer (exclusive of those holding their shares in street
name), who in the aggregate have tendered 1,699 shares of common stock. In
addition, 56 eligible holders holding their shares in street name have tendered
4,627 shares.

         The Company will pay $3.35 for each share purchased in the tender
offer. This price represents a premium of 19.6% over the last sale price of the
common stock on the Nasdaq National Market on June 2, 2003, the last trading day
prior to the date of the offer, and 48.9% over the last sale price on July 31,
2003.
         The offer is not conditioned on the receipt of any minimum number of
tenders.
         If, after completion of the tender offer, the Company has fewer than
300 stockholders of record, the Company intends to terminate the registration of
its common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and become a
non-reporting company. If that occurs, the Company will no longer file periodic
reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including annual reports on
Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and will not be subject to the
SEC's proxy rules. In addition, the common stock will no longer be eligible for
trading on the Nasdaq market.

         Questions or requests for documents may be directed to Innisfree M&A
Incorporated, the Information Agent for the offer, by telephone at (888)
750-5834 (toll free) or in writing at 501 Madison Avenue, 20th Floor, New York,
New York 10022.
