If Hummingbird had a company in their sights we would have heard about it by now. They've been saying for years that they would use the money to acquire a significant company. Lots of talk but no action. Kind of like when they announced their previous share buyback plan. I doubt that the buyback will have much of an influence on the share price. It will however, increase the EPS and bring the price/earnings ratio down. The p/e ratio right now is about 12:1. It's hard to believe that it can go much lower, but I wouldn't bet against it. It was 17:1 not too long ago. My confidence in the company is waning - slowly - but still waning. The only possibility of a significant increase in the stock price will be if Hummingbird becomes a takeover target. Let's hope that happens soon. Tom W.
