The company has not announced a share buyback. I personally prefer that this NOT happen. The $250+M kitty is extremely attractive to any suitor. Assuming PAIR goes for somewhere in the mid 20s, say $25. With 75M shares (65M outstanding), that comes to a buyout price of $1.6B. The $250+ CASH can represent a 16.6% discount from the buyout price. Nice bargain. Estimated buyout price based on PEG of 30% x estimated '99 EPS (30 x $0.85).
