[Stock Buy Back] Hi Pat, The following might explain: ======================================== RELEASE DATE: May 2, 1997 CONTACT: Susan Schoenhals - Investor Relations, 604-421-5422 Email: susan_schoenhals@spectrumsignal.com SPECTRUM SIGNAL PROCESSING TO BUYBACK UP TO 460,000 SHARES Burnaby, B.C., Canada - May 2, 1997 - Spectrum Signal Processing (NASDAQ NMS: SSPIF / TSE: SSY) announced today that the Company will pursue a normal course issuer bid to buyback up to 460,000 shares of its own stock (4.97% of 9.248 million shares outstanding on April 30, 1997) in the open-market. "The company had $6.3 million in cash as of March 31, 1997, an increase of $5.6 million in the past twelve months, which allows us to repurchase our stock without impacting our ability to finance ongoing business," states Barry Jinks, Spectrum president & CEO. "We are convinced that a buyback of our stock at current market levels is a sound investment of a portion of cash reserves," adds Jinks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Regards, Ed...
