Optical Products Maker to Issue Stock Split

Meade Instruments Corporation (Nasdaq: MEAD) today announced a 2
for 1 stock split of the Company's common shares. The Board of
Directors has set the payable date for the split on June 19,
2000. Approximately 8.2 million shares are currently
outstanding.

Meade designs optical products including telescopes and
binoculars. The Company distributes its products through
specialty retailers, merchandisers and foreign distributors.

During mid-March, MEAD stock surged from $23 to a high of $79 in
just two weeks. No, investors are not excited about telescopes.
What they are excited about is MEAD's contract with Terabeam
Corp, to produce optical components used in fiber optic
networking. Since early April however, the stock has been
consolidating those gains and the stock is once again showing
some upward momentum. SplitTrader.com will monitor the stock
closely for a possible addition to our Recommended Split List.

complete profile located on the site. To view a chart on the
