Printware, Inc. Announces Stock Repurchase Plan.
ST. PAUL, MINN., June 4, 2001-Printware, Inc. (Nasdaq-NNM: PRTW)
today announced its Board of Directors has approved a stock repurchase plan
which authorizes the Company to repurchase up to 500,000 shares of its
Common Stock in market or private transactions, or approximately fifteen
(15) percents of its current shares outstanding. The Company has
approximately 3.3 million shares outstanding. The repurchase plan is based
on the belief that Printware's shares are undervalued and that shareholders
would be better served by using the Company's excess cash resources to buy
back a portion of its outstanding Common Stock.
