Subject: Flow International Receives NASDAQ Notice Related to Late 10-Q Filing FLOW INTERNATIONAL RECEIVES NASDAQ NOTICE RELATED TO LATE 10-Q FILING Flow International Receives NASDAQ Notice Related to Late 10-Q Filing    KENT, Wash., March 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Flow International Corporation (Nasdaq: FLOW), the world's leading developer and manufacturer of industrial waterjet machines used for cutting and cleaning applications around the world, announced that it has received a NASDAQ Staff Determination notice indicating that the Company is not in compliance with the filing requirements for continued listing as set forth in NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14) because the Company had not filed its 10-Q for the quarter ended January 31, 2007 in a timely manner, and that its common stock is subject to delisting from the NASDAQ Global Market.    As previously disclosed, Flow has delayed the release of its results pending completion of an investigation at its Korean operation, where irregularities led the Company to believe that a single local employee may have stolen monies.  The employee has since confessed to the fraud.  The Company's Korean operation is financially consolidated into the Flow Asia Waterjet segment and represented less than one percent (1%) of total company revenue in fiscal 2006.  The Company expects to complete the investigation shortly, does not anticipate any material financial impact as a result of the internal investigation and maintains insurance against such losses.    However, until the Form 10-Q is filed, Flow will not be in compliance with NASDAQ's listing criteria.  The Nasdaq notice, which the Company expected, was issued in accordance with standard NASDAQ procedures.  The Company will appeal this determination and request a hearing before the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel.  The Company's appeal and hearing request will automatically stay the delisting of the Company's common stock.    About Flow International    Flow International Corporation is the world's leading developer and manufacturer of ultrahigh-pressure waterjet cutting technology to industries including automotive, aerospace, job shop, surface preparation, and more.
