Exhibit 99.1

LRAD CORPORATION ANNOUNCES FISCAL Q1 2012 RESULTS

Company Reports Profitable First Quarter

SAN DIEGO, CA, February 7, 2012 – LRAD Corporation (NASDAQ: LRAD), the world’s leading provider of long range acoustic hailing devices (AHDs), today announced revenues of $3.6 million and net income of $314,000, or $0.01 per diluted share, for its first fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2011.

“Deliveries of LRAD® systems for bird protection and control, perimeter security, disaster response and to the U.S. Navy resulted in a profitable quarter and a good start to fiscal 2012,” remarked Tom Brown, president and chief executive officer of LRAD Corporation. “While uncertainty continues in the worldwide economy and domestic defense budget, we anticipate a successful fiscal 2012 based on our growing pipeline of global AHD business opportunities, further expansion into commercial markets, and the introduction of new products and applications.”

Revenues for fiscal Q1 2012 increased 64% from $2.2 million recorded in fiscal Q1 2011. The increase was primarily attributable to orders into growing commercial markets and deliveries on an order to the U.S. Navy.

Gross profit for fiscal Q1 2012 was $1.7 million, or 48% of revenues, compared to $992,000, or 45% of revenues, for the same period a year ago. The increase was primarily due to increased revenue and fixed overhead absorption, partially offset by increased cost related to the amortization of prepaid expenses to support the large military sale in fiscal 2011.

Operating expenses for fiscal Q1 2012 were relatively flat compared to the same period in the prior year at $1.4 million. Decreases of $77,000 for bad debt expense and $13,000 for travel expense and other reductions were offset by increases of $28,000 primarily for business development personnel, $26,000 for non-cash share-based compensation expense, $20,000 for increased audit and legal fees, and $20,000 for commission expense for third party sales representatives.

Net income for fiscal Q1 2012 was $314,000, or $0.01 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $355,000, or $(0.01) per share, for the same period last year. The increase was primarily the result of higher revenues and gross margin.

Management is scheduled to discuss the Company’s fiscal Q1 2012 business and financial results on a conference call tomorrow, February 8, 2012, at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time.
