Synalloy Corporation Announces Annual Dividend Payment

SPARTANBURG, S.C., Feb. 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Synalloy Corporation (Nasdaq: SYNL), a producer of specialty chemicals, pigments, stainless steel pipe, vessels and process equipment, announces the declaration of an annual dividend of $.15 per share payable on March 15, 2007 to holders of record on February 23, 2007.

The Board believes that the shareholders should receive a cash benefit from the good performance in 2006. In determining the amount of this annual dividend, the Board considered the need to maintain a strong balance sheet in view of the budgeted increase in working capital to support the expected ramp- up of our fire retardant product line as well as the anticipated increase in sales of piping systems. The Board presently plans to review at the end of each fiscal year the financial performance and capital needed to support future growth to determine the amount of cash dividend, if any, that is appropriate.
