Seems pretty recent to me. BTW, nice scumbag broker: "GUNNALLEN FINANCIAL REITERATES BUY RATING ON GUMTECH INTERNATIONAL WITH

Story Filed: Thursday, January 28, 1999 01:39 PM EST

12-Month Price Target of $24
TAMPA, Fla., Jan. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- The following is being issued by GunnAllen Financial, a member of the National
Association of Securities Dealers, CRD number 17609:

Phoenix, AZ-based GumTech International (Nasdaq: GUMM) develops, markets, and distributes specialty chewing gum
products under its own label, on a private-label basis, and for household-name confectionery companies, including
BreathAsure Dental Gum and AcuTrim Diet Gum. The gums are designed to provide functional health benefits to
consumers, and are manufactured in the only stainless steel gum manufacturing facility registered with the U.S. Food and
Drug Administration to produce over-the counter drug containing products.

GumTech today announced the formation of an LLC to jointly develop and market ZICAM, a homeopathic nasal gel designed
to substantially reduce the duration of the symptoms of the common cold. At any one time, nearly one-third of all
Americans had a cold in the previous two weeks. In addition, children have about six to eight colds per year, with some
children suffering from as many as 12 in a one-year period.

The science behind ZICAM can be found at the ZICAM website: www.zicam.com.

Expenditures on OTC remedies for this ailment approximate $1.5 billion in the U.S alone. GunnAllen believes that ZICAM
offers tremendous upside potential to its current FY1999 revenue forecast of $23 million, and may add as much as $0.30
per share to its FY1999 estimate of $0.47 per diluted share.

GunnAllen Financial continues to believe in the GumTech story independent of ZICAM. The functional chewing gum market
is growing rapidly as evidenced by the number of new products hitting store shelves. In addition to dental gum, GunnAllen
believes there is still room in the diet sector.

Furthermore, with the February 9, 1999 expiration of the new product exclusivity period for SmithKline Beecham Consumer
Healthcare's Nicorette Gum under the Waxman-Hatch Act, a huge market for private label and branded nicotine-containing
gums appears evident.

GunnAllen is reiterating their buy rating on GumTech with a twelve-month price target of $24.
