United-Guardian Reports Second Quarter Financial Results

EXHIBIT 99.1

United-Guardian Reports Second Quarter Financial Results

HAUPPAUGE, N.Y., Aug. 8, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- United-Guardian, Inc. (Nasdaq:UG) reported net income of $901,273 ($0.20 per share) on sales of $2,980,136 for the second quarter of 2014, and net income of $2,237,026 ($0.49 per share) on sales of $6,939,628 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014. Net sales decreased by 17.9% for the second quarter and 8.5% for the six months, and net income decreased by 32.8% for the quarter and by 23.1% for the six months, compared with the same periods last year.

Ken Globus, President of United-Guardian, stated, "The lower earnings for this year's second quarter were the result of several factors that came together this quarter and affected our earnings. The most significant was a reduction in sales to our largest marketing partner. We believe that this was the result of their having taken in a disproportionate amount of inventory in the first quarter of this year based on sales projections they received from some of their major customers. This reduced their need for product during the second quarter. Despite this, they have indicated to us that their 2014 year-to-date sales to their customers have actually increased over last year, and they expect that by year end their sales for 2014 will be up over last year.

"The balance of the sales decline was due to the loss of a customer for one of our medical products, which accounted for 3.1% of our sales in 2013; lower-than-expected sales of our Renacidin® Irrigation, which had been off the market for 15 months due to a production curtailment on the part of the Company's supplier; and the ending of compensation payments that we had been receiving from that supplier as reimbursement for our losses caused by the production curtailment. We are hoping to offset the loss of the medical customer with a potential new customer in Australia for which we developing a new product. We are also optimistic that our recently-introduced line of Lubrajel™ Natural skin care products will begin to generate additional revenue in the near future."

United-Guardian is a manufacturer of cosmetic ingredients, personal and health care products, pharmaceuticals, and specialty industrial products.
