CANTRONIC REPORTS RESULTS FOR FY ENDED JANUARY 31, 2011: Revenue from continuing

operations increased 98% with net income $1.9 million or $0.022 per share

Vancouver, British Columbia, May 24, 2011 – Cantronic Systems Inc., (“Cantronic” or the “Company”)
(TSX-Venture: CTS; Pink Sheets: CRIXF) today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and
twelve-month period ended January 31, 2011 ("FY 2011"). All amounts are reported in Canadian dollars
unless otherwise stated. Cantronic is reporting results from continuing and discontinued operations to
allow investors to review Cantronic's China-based video surveillance technology and solutions business
separately from the North American thermal imaging business (which was recently sold subsequent to
the financial year-end).

Selected highlights of the year and subsequent events:

Financial:

 Revenue of $18.1 million from continuing operations, an increase of 98% compared to $9.15
million for the previous fiscal year. Revenue from discontinued operations (the North American
Business) was $1.86 million, resulting in total revenue of $19.95 million.
 Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP term) from continuing operations was $3.8 million compared to
$1.0 million for the previous fiscal year. The Company uses adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP
financial measure) internally to make strategic decisions, forecast future results and evaluate its
performance, defined as net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization,
stock option compensation expenses, foreign currency loss, and minority interest.
 Gross margin from continuing operations of $6.8 million (38% of revenue) compared to $4.2
million (46% of revenue) for the previous financial year.
 Net Income from continuing operations (after minority interest) was $1.9 million or $0.022 per
share vs. a net loss of $395K from continuing operations or $0.005 per share in FY 2010.

Business:

 Cantronic completed the acquisition of Actiontop Electronic (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd and Actiontop
Electronics (HK) Co., Ltd., a technology leader in the dome camera market, for cash of $1.2
million and shares valued at $2.2 million.
 Cantronic acquired an additional 9.08% interest in AVINFO, a provider of video management
platform software, bringing its total ownership in AVINFO to 67.6%
 Cantronic entered into a co-operation agreement with International Far Eastern Leasing Co., Ltd.
to provide a leasing credit facility of up to RMB5 billion (approximately C$765 million) to
customers pursuing Safe City and other video surveillance.
 Actiontop introduced its full line of IP dome cameras, incorporating IP high-definition modules
from Yellow River, another subsidiary of Cantronic.
 Cantronic was awarded a $3.9 million project as prime contractor under China's Safe City
Program for supply and installation of networked video surveillance systems in Haicheng City in
China’s Liaoning province.
 Subsequent to FY 2011 year-end Cantronic sold its North American business, comprising the
thermal imaging business located in Coquitlam, British Columbia as well as QWIP
Technologies, Inc. of Brea, California. The transaction was completed on April 29, 2011.

"Revenue from continuing operations almost doubled in FY 2011, with adjusted EBITDA increased
significantly and the Company reporting positive net earnings from continuing operations. FY 2011
marks the transformation of Cantronic Systems Inc. into a vertically integrated company operating in the
Chinese video security and surveillance market, with key technologies in video management software, IP
video cameras and dome cameras," remarked James Zahn, President and CEO of Cantronic Systems.

"The decision was taken to sell the North American thermal imaging business which had been
generating losses and had reduced prospects due to cutbacks in military spending. We are executing on
a plan that was developed when we entered the Chinese marketplace in 2008. With two years
operating history in China, Cantronic is now able to seek bank financing for larger installation contracts
which have higher margin than hardware sales. We continue to see major opportunities in China for
increased sales of both video surveillance cameras and software as well as networked video surveillance
solutions and turn-key projects. We are now well-positioned for tremendous growth opportunities in
China with estimated market potential with only our existing customers to be $13 billion over the next 9
years, " Mr. Zahn concluded.
