Legato Systems Up 17%; Company Has No News

NEW YORK -- Battered shares of Legato Systems Inc. (LGTO) got a 16% boost Wednesday as
investors snapped up a stock that some observers saw as undervalued.

An analyst said Legato may have reached a bottom, having fallen so far that investors now see it as
a bargain. Legato lost 90% of its value in 2000 to hit a 52-week low of $8.13 on Aug. 17. The
eight-month-long slide came amid earnings restatements that began in January and continue to dog
the company.

Long-standing rumors of a takeover by EMC Corp. (EMC) also resurfaced Wednesday and
circulated on Internet message boards.

A Legato Systems spokesman said he wasn't aware of any news releases Wednesday. He declined
to comment on the rumors, as did a spokesman at EMC.
