PROXY STATEMENT

This Proxy Statement is furnished by the Board of Directors of The LGL Group, Inc. (the “Company”) in connection with the solicitation of proxies for use at the 2008 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2008 Annual Meeting”) to be held at the Marriott Orlando Downtown, 400 W. Livingston Street, Orlando, Florida 32801 on Thursday, June 26, 2008, at 9:30 a.m. and any adjournments thereof. This Proxy Statement and the accompanying proxy are first being mailed to stockholders on or about May 27, 2008.

GENERAL INFORMATION

How to Vote

No action may be taken on any matter to be acted upon at the meeting unless a quorum is present with respect to that matter. For each matter to be acted upon at the meeting, a quorum consists of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of all shares of common stock outstanding on the record date for the meeting.

Shares held directly in your name as the stockholder of record may be voted in person at the 2008 Annual Meeting. If you choose to do so, please bring the enclosed proxy card or proof of identification. Even if you currently plan to attend the 2008 Annual Meeting, we recommend that you submit your proxy as described below so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the meeting. Shares held in street name may be voted in person by you only if you obtain a signed proxy from the record holder giving you the right to vote the shares.

Whether you hold shares directly as the stockholder of record or beneficially in street name, you may direct your vote without attending the meeting. You may vote by granting a proxy or, for shares held in street name, by submitting voting instructions to your broker or nominee. Please refer to the instructions included on your proxy card or, for shares held in street name, the voting instruction card included by your broker or nominee.

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on May 12, 2008 are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the 2008 Annual Meeting. As of the close of business on such date, 2,171,709 shares of common stock were outstanding and eligible to be voted by their holders. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote on each matter submitted to stockholders. Where specific instructions are given in the proxy, the proxy will be voted in accordance with such instructions. If no such instructions are given, the proxy will be voted FOR the nominees for director named below, FOR ratification of the appointment of the Company’s independent auditors, and in the discretion of the proxies with respect to any other matter that is properly brought before the 2008 Annual Meeting.

The election of directors is to be determined by a plurality of the votes cast on that proposal. The ratification of the appointment of J.H. Cohn LLP as the Company’s independent auditors is to be determined by a majority of the votes cast on that proposal.

Under the laws of Delaware, abstentions and broker non-votes are not counted for purposes of determining whether a proposal has been approved, but will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present. A broker non-vote occurs when a bank, broker or other nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not receive voting instructions from the beneficial owner on a particular matter and such nominee cannot vote the shares under American Stock Exchange (“AMEX”) rules.

Revoking Your Proxy

You may revoke your proxy at any time before it is voted at the 2008 Annual Meeting by any one of the following actions: (1) executing and returning a proxy bearing a later date to the Company’s Secretary at the Company’s principal offices; (2) giving notice of such revocation to the Company’s Secretary; or (3) by attending the 2008 Annual Meeting and voting in person.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The Board of Directors met on five occasions during the year ended December 31, 2007. Each of the directors attended at least 75% of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of the Board of Directors (held during the period for which he was a director); and (ii) the total number of meetings held by all committees of the Board of Directors on which he served (during the periods that he served). All nine members of the Board of Directors nominated for reelection at last year’s annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders attended such meeting.

The Board of Directors has three committees, the principal duties of which are described below.

Audit Committee: The members of the Audit Committee are Messrs. Pustorino (Chairman), Cerutti, DaPuzzo, Gray and Healy. The Board of Directors has determined that all audit committee members are financially literate and independent in accordance with AMEX rules. Mr. Pustorino serves as Chairman and qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert.” The Audit Committee met five times during 2007. The Audit Committee operates in accordance with its charter, which is available on our website at www.lglgroup.com. The charter gives the Audit Committee the authority and responsibility for the appointment, retention, compensation and oversight of our independent auditors, including pre-approval of all audit and non-audit services to be performed by our independent auditors. The Audit Committee also reviews the independence of the independent auditors, reviews with management and the independent auditors the Company’s annual financial statements prior to their filing with the SEC, reviews the report by the independent auditors regarding management procedures and policies and determines whether the independent auditors have received satisfactory access to the Company’s financial records and full cooperation of corporate personnel in connection with their audit of the Company’s records. The Audit Committee also reviews the Company’s financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors, reviews the financial information issued to stockholders and others, including a discussion of the quality, not just the acceptability, of the accounting principles; the reasonableness of significant judgments; and the clarity of discussions in the financial statements, and monitors the systems of internal control and the audit process. Management has primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process. See “Report of the Audit Committee” herein.

Compensation Committee: The members of the Compensation Committee are Messrs. Guarino (Chairman), Cerutti, DaPuzzo, Gray and Nakamura. All members of the Compensation Committee are independent in accordance with AMEX rules. The Compensation Committee met four times during 2007. The responsibilities of the Compensation Committee are to review and approve compensation and benefits policies and objectives, determine whether the Company’s officers and directors are compensated in accordance with these policies and objectives and carry out the Board of Directors’ responsibilities relating to compensation of the Company’s executives. The Compensation Committee Charter is available at www.lglgroup.com.

Nominating Committee: The members of the Nominating Committee are Messrs. DaPuzzo (Chairman), Foufas, Gray and Pustorino. All members of the Nominating Committee are independent in accordance with AMEX rules. The Nominating Committee met twice during 2007. The responsibilities of the Nominating Committee are to identify individuals qualified to become Board members and recommend that the Board select director nominees for the annual meetings of stockholders. The Nominating Committee Charter is available at www.lglgroup.com.

In evaluating and determining whether to nominate a candidate for a position on the Board of Directors, the Nominating Committee utilizes a variety of methods and considers criteria such as high professional ethics and values, relevant management and/or manufacturing experience and a commitment to enhancing stockholder value. Candidates may be brought to the attention of the Nominating Committee by current Board members, stockholders, officers or other persons. The Nominating Committee will review all candidates in the same manner regardless of the source of the recommendation.

The Nominating Committee also considers stockholder recommendations for director nominees that are properly received in accordance with the Company’s By-Laws and applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. In order to validly nominate a candidate for election or reelection as a director, stockholders must give timely notice of such nomination in writing to the Corporate Secretary and include, as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate, all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors in an election contest, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (including such person’s written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected). For more information on director candidate nominations by stockholders, see “Stockholder Proposals” herein.

Stockholders may communicate with the Board of Directors, including the non-management directors, by sending an e-mail to hcastle@lglgroup.com or by sending a letter to The LGL Group, Inc., 2525 Shader Road, Orlando, Florida 32804, attention: Corporate Secretary. The Corporate Secretary will submit such correspondence to any specific director to whom the correspondence is directed.

The Amended and Restated Business Conduct Policy is available at www.lglgroup.com.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 with both management and J.H. Cohn LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007. In its discussion, management has represented to the Audit Committee that the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

The Audit Committee meets with our independent registered public accounting firm, with and without management present, to discuss the results of their examinations, the evaluations of the Company’s internal controls and the overall quality of the Company’s financial reporting. The Audit Committee discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by the statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended (Communication with Audit Committees).

The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm also provided to the Committee the written disclosures and the letter required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit Committees), and the Audit Committee has considered and discussed with J.H.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Overview

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for developing and determining the Company’s executive compensation policies and administering the Company’s executive compensation plans. Additionally, the Compensation Committee determines the compensation to be paid to each of the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer of the Company (such executives who served during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 are hereinafter referred to as “named executive officers”), as well as other key employees.

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

The Compensation Committee considers the ultimate objective of an executive compensation program to be the creation of stockholder value. An effective executive compensation program pursues this objective by (i) aligning each executive officer’s interests with those of stockholders by rewarding each executive officer based on the Company’s performance and (ii) ensuring the Company’s continued ability to hire and retain superior employees in key positions by insuring that compensation provided to such employees remains competitive with the compensation paid to employees with similar responsibilities and experience working for companies of comparable size, capitalization, and complexity. The Compensation Committee designs compensation packages for named executive officers that include both cash and stock-based compensation (the latter vesting over time) tied to an individual’s experience and performance and the Company’s achievement of certain short-term and long-term goals.

Determination of Compensation Awards

The Compensation Committee recommends to the Board the compensation awards for the named executive officers. To assist the Compensation Committee in making such recommendations, the Chief Executive Officer conducts an annual performance review with each of the named executive officers to determine whether specific pre-determined individual goals related to their job responsibility have been achieved. Subsequently, the Chief Executive Officer provides compensation recommendations to the Compensation Committee regarding each of such officers.

The Compensation Committee conducts an annual review of the Chief Executive Officer’s performance prior to making its recommendation to the Board regarding the Chief Executive Officer’s compensation. During this review, the Compensation Committee considers the Company’s performance in the following categories: (i) the performance of the Company’s common stock, (ii) the achievement of agreed upon objectives such as cost reductions and (iii) other business performance improvements identified in the Company business plan.

Compensation Benchmarking and Peer Group

The Company has not retained a compensation consultant to review its policies and procedures with respect to the compensation of the named executive officers. The Compensation Committee benchmarks the compensation of the named executive officers against the median compensation paid by comparable companies in both related and unrelated industries and companies that compete with the Company, such as Frequency Electronics, Inc., Valpey Fisher Corp. and RF Monolithics, Inc. To that end, the Compensation Committee conducted a benchmark review of the aggregate level of compensation of the named executive officers as well as the mix of elements used to compensate the named executive officers, taking into account input from independent members of the Company’s Board of Directors and publicly available data relating to the compensation practices and policies of other comparable companies. While benchmarking may not always be appropriate as a stand-alone tool for setting the compensation of the named executive officers due to the Company’s potentially unique aspects and objectives, the Compensation Committee generally believes that gathering such information is an important part of the Compensation Committee’s decision-making process.

The Compensation Committee recognizes that in order to attract, retain and motivate the named executive officers, the Compensation Committee may determine that it is in the Company’s best interest to negotiate total compensation packages that deviate from the Compensation Committee’s general principal of benchmarking the compensation of the named executive officers.

Elements of Compensation

Base Salary

Base salary levels for the Company’s named executive officers are designed to be competitive with those of employees with similar responsibilities working for companies of comparable size, capitalization and complexity. In determining base salaries, the Compensation Committee takes into account the named executive officer’s experience and performance, as well as the salaries of similarly positioned executives within the Company and general compensation levels in the region in which the named executive officer is based.

Annual Performance-Based Cash Incentive Bonus

The Company’s bonus plan is designed to award the named executive officers annually based on objective measures of the Company’s performance and subjective evaluations of the individual’s performance. Examples of individual evaluation elements are: inventory reduction and days sales outstanding management, shipment to plan, cycle time reduction, customer lead-times and outgoing quality, growth in military and aerospace revenue and gross margins.

In general, the plan provides for an annual bonus pool equal to 20% of the excess of the consolidated pre-tax profits of the Company for the calendar year over 25% of the Company’s stockholders equity at the beginning of such year. The Compensation Committee, in its discretion, may take other factors into consideration when determining the size of the bonus pool and individual awards, such as the Company’s progress toward the achievement of strategic goals. The breakdown of the bonus pool is not based on a formula, but on factors such as the relative importance of a named executive officer’s area of responsibility and contributions to the Company’s earnings.

Discretionary Long-Term Equity Incentive Awards

The named executive officers are also eligible for stock option grants and restricted stock awards. Such stock options and shares of restricted stock generally vest over a period of three years in order to provide an incentive for continued employment. Stock options generally expire 10 years after the date of the grant and are awarded with their exercise price set at the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant.

The Compensation Committee uses various factors to determine the amount of stock options and restricted stock it will award to each named executive officer, including the named executive officer’s base salary, evaluations of the individual’s performance and the value of the stock options and restricted stock at the time of the award. Consequently, an individual’s award may increase or decrease materially from year to year due to, for example, a significant change in the individual’s responsibilities or in recognition of a significant achievement. Additionally, the Compensation Committee has approved the awarding of stock options or restricted shares to newly hired named executive officers in order to ensure the Company’s ability to attract talented candidates.

The LGL Group, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan

The 401(k) Savings Plan, which is subject to limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, permits the Company’s employees to defer a portion of their compensation by making contributions to the Plan and thereby obtain certain tax benefits. Participating employees also benefit from the Plan by sharing in contributions made by the Company to the Plan matching a certain percentage of each employee’s contribution made in a particular year. A participant’s interest in his or her individual contributions, the Company’s contributions and earnings thereon is fully vested at all times. The Plan’s proceeds are invested in guaranteed investment contracts, certain mutual funds or the common stock of the Company, subject to the discretion of the participants.

The named executive officers and all other employees of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries are eligible to participate in the LGL Group, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan after having completed three months of service and reached the age of 18. All of the named executive officers participated in the 401(k) Savings Plan in 2007, except for Harold D. Castle as by December 31, 2007. He had not yet become eligible.

Other Benefits

The Company provides the named executive officers with medical insurance, life insurance and disability benefits that are generally made available to Company’s employees to ensure that the Company’s employees have access to basic healthcare and income protection for themselves and their family members.

Director Compensation Arrangements

A director who is an employee of the Company is not compensated for services as a member of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof. In 2007, directors who were not employees received (i) a cash retainer of $5,000 per quarter; (ii) a fee of $2,000 for each meeting of the Board of Directors attended in person or telephonically that had a duration of at least one hour during January through September, 2007, (iii) a fee of $1,000 for each meeting of the Board of Directors attended in person or telephonically during October through December 2007; (iv) a fee of $1,500 for each audit Committee meeting attended in person or telephonically that had a duration of at least one hour; and (v) a fee of $750 for each Compensation Committee, Audit Committee or Nominating Committee meeting attended in person. The Audit Committee Chairman received an additional $4,000 annual cash retainer and the Nominating Committee Chairman and Compensation Committee Chairman received additional $2,000 annual retainers. On August 28, 2007, the Audit Committee Chairman fee was changed to $3,000; the Compensation Committee Chairman fee was changed to $2,000, and the Nominating Committee Chairman fee was changed to $1,000.

For fiscal 2008, as 50% of their base compensation, directors received grants of restricted common stock in an amount of $10,000 (the number of such shares determined by dividing $10,000 by the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date), such shares to vest ratably at the end of each quarterly period during fiscal 2008. Each director will exercise full voting rights with respect to such shares as of the grant date. Once vested, such shares will not be transferable until the earliest to occur of director’s resignation from the Board of Directors or any other termination of the director’s membership thereon, or a change of control, as defined in the 2001 Equity Incentive Plan. Pursuant to this arrangement, on December 31, 2007, eight members of the Board of Directors were granted 1,471 shares each of restricted common stock under the Company’s 2001 Equity Incentive Plan.

In 2007, Marc Gabelli, the Chairman of the Board of Directors, was entitled to receive a $100,000 annual fee, payable in equal quarterly installments, but Mr. Gabelli elected to defer payment of his annual fee for 2007 to a later date.

The Audit Committee Charter provides that the Audit Committee shall pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided by the independent auditors and shall not engage the independent auditors to perform the specific non-audit services proscribed by law or regulation. All audit-related and tax services performed by our independent auditors were pre-approved by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to a member of the Audit Committee. The decisions of any Committee member to whom pre-approval authority is delegated must be presented to the full Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

The Audit Committee has determined that the rendering of the services other than audit services by J.H. Cohn LLP was compatible with such firm’s independence.

Votes Required

The affirmative vote of a majority of those shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the proposal at the annual meeting is required to ratify the appointment of J.H. Cohn LLP as the Company’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008. Thus, abstentions will not affect the outcome of the vote on the proposal.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of J.H. Cohn LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008.

STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS

Proposals of stockholders intended to be presented at the 2009 Annual Meeting must be received by the Corporate Secretary, The LGL Group, Inc., 2525 Shader Road, Orlando, Florida 32804, by no later than January 27, 2009, for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement and form of proxy relating to the 2009 Annual Meeting.

Under SEC rules, if the Company does not receive notice of a stockholder proposal at least 45 days prior to the first anniversary of the date of mailing of the prior year’s proxy statement, then the Company will be permitted to use its discretionary voting authority when the proposal is raised at the annual meeting, without any discussion of the matter in the proxy statement. In connection with the 2009 Annual Meeting, if the Company does not have notice of a stockholder proposal on or before April 12, 2009, the Company will be permitted to use its discretionary voting authority as outlined above.

The By-Laws of the Company establish procedures for stockholder nominations for elections of directors of the Company and bringing business before any annual meeting or special meeting of stockholders of the Company. Any stockholder entitled to vote generally in the election of directors may nominate one or more persons for election as directors at a meeting only if written notice of such stockholder’s intent to make such nomination or nominations has been delivered, either by personal delivery or by United States mail, postage prepaid, to the Corporate Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Company not later than the close of business on the 90th day nor earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting. However, in the event that the date of the annual meeting is more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such annual meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the Company. In no event must the public announcement of an adjournment of an annual meeting commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above.

The stockholder’s notice must set forth (a) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or reelection as a director, all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors in an election contest, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (including such person’s written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected) and any additional information reasonably requested by the Board of Directors; (b) as to any other business that the stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting, a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting, the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting and any material interest in such business of such stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made; and (c) as to the stockholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made (i) the name and address of such stockholder, as they appear on the Company’s books, and of such beneficial owner, (ii) the

class and number of shares of the Company that are owned beneficially and of record by such stockholder and such beneficial owner, (iii) all information relating to such stockholder and such beneficial owner that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors in an election contest, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 11a-11 thereunder, and (iv) any additional information reasonably requested by the Board of Directors.

Notwithstanding anything in the previous paragraph, in the event that the number of directors to be elected to the Board of Directors of the Company is increased and there is no public announcement by the Company naming all of the nominees for director or specifying the size of the increased Board of Directors at least 70 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, a stockholder’s notice required by the By-Laws of the Company will also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for any new positions created by such increase, if it shall be delivered to the Corporate Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Company not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which such public announcement is first made by the Company.

The Company may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as may reasonably be required to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as a director. The chairman of the meeting may, if the facts warrant, determine that a nomination was not made in accordance with the foregoing procedure, in which event, the officer will announce that determination to the meeting and the defective nomination will be disregarded.

MISCELLANEOUS

The Board of Directors knows of no other matters that are likely to come before the 2008 Annual Meeting. If any other matters should properly come before the 2008 Annual Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying form of proxy to vote on such matters in accordance with their best judgment.

The solicitation of proxies is made on behalf of the Board of Directors of the Company, and the cost thereof will be borne by the Company. The Company has employed the firm of Morrow & Co. Inc., 470 West Avenue, 3rd Floor, Stamford, Connecticut, 06902 to assist in this solicitation at a cost of $4,000, plus out-of-pocket expenses. The Company will also reimburse brokerage firms and nominees for their expenses in forwarding proxy material to beneficial owners of the common stock of the Company. In addition, officers and employees of the Company (none of whom will receive any compensation therefor in addition to their regular compensation) may solicit proxies. The solicitation will be made by mail and, in addition, may be made by telegrams, personal interviews and the telephone.
